How can I unit test my firmware?
To give some context, ESPecial is an Arduino based firmware that gives you the possibility to control your esp32 via a web interface or telegram bot, and add dynamically all kind of automations. It’s a bit like ESP-Home, but without the compilation step (and far from having all its features!). It has nice features like web socket, Camera, Matt and more. The thing is that the whole code is not tested, I’m a web developer and never done C++ so when I started that project I just wanted something working for my prototypes. Now that I want the thing to be more robust, I’d like to implement unit/functional tests. I found this: https://github.com/bxparks/AUnit and of course the Expressif IDF page on the subject: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/unit-tests.html But I’m curious about what you guys could suggest, what would be the best option for this project? Thanks for your help!

Testing Frameworks for C++, ESP32
I‘ve used https://github.com/bxparks/AUnit in combination with the arduino framework. Worked very well.

Trying to add tests for my cmake for catch2 with ctest.
Another possible issue would be the include(Catch) in your root cmakelists.txt . To include Catch there it must be part of your module path. Otherwise you have to include the path to that catch2 cmake file. Here is that file in their repository - https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/blob/devel/extras/Catch.cmake . I recon that CMake doesn't know about this file since you call find_package(Catch2 REQUIRED) later in your subdirectory
