A tutorial on unit tests in C++ using Google Test (GTest) and Google Mock (GMock)
fakeit is awesome, have you tried it? it's almost like using a ruby mocking framework https://github.com/eranpeer/FakeIt

Unit testing and mocking for c++
Coming from googletest/googlemock, I found FakeIt to be a rabbit hole. In particular, I recall not being able to match const reference parameters or something strange like that -- the matcher values would dangle I think. Ah yes, this issue here: https://github.com/eranpeer/FakeIt/issues/108.

Introducing CI Pipeline for Clang-Format Checks in faker-cxx
For the second part of my Release 0.3 contribution to the faker-cxx project, I addressed an issue involving the addition of a Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline. The goal was to ensure that any new code pushed to the repository adheres to the clang-format configuration provided in the root folder. This was an exciting opportunity to deepen my understanding of CI/CD workflows, especially since I am actively learning about them.

Increasing Code Coverage in faker-cxx
For the Release 0.3 milestone of my OSD600 course, I returned to contribute to the faker-cxx library, a C++ library designed for generating realistic fake data. As someone who had previously contributed to this project, I was eager to take on a more challenging issue. This time, I focused on increasing code coverage for a specific module.

Contributing To Open Source - C++ Edition
However, afterward, I still wanted to do more, so I started looking for a larger project to contribute to. To my surprise, the very popular faker.js library has a C++ version in the works, faker-cxx, which I was very excited to work on!
