Google Mock: + + * lets you create mock classes trivially using simple macros, + * supports a rich set of matchers and actions, + * handles unordered, partially ordered, or completely ordered expectations, + * is extensible by users, and + * works on Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, Windows Mobile, minGW, and Symbian. + +We hope you find it useful! + +## Who are using Google Mock? ## + +We have enjoyed using Google Mock in many projects at Google. Outside of Google, the most notable client is probably the [Chromium projects](http://www.chromium.org/) (behind the Chrome browser and Chrome OS). If you know of a project that's using Google Mock and want it to be listed here, please let +`googlemock@googlegroups.com` know. + + +## System Requirements ## + +Google Mock is not a testing framework itself. Instead, it needs a +testing framework for writing tests. Google Mock works seamlessly +with [Google Test](http://code.google.com/p/googletest/). It comes +with a copy of Google Test bundled. Starting with version 1.1.0, +you can also use it with [any C++ testing framework of your choice](ForDummies#Using_Google_Mock_with_Any_Testing_Framework.md). + +Google Mock has been tested with **gcc 4.0+** and **Microsoft Visual C++ 8.0 SP1**. Users +reported that it also works with **gcc 3.4**, **Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1**, and **Cygwin**, although we haven't tested it there ourselves. + +## Getting Started ## + +If you are new to the project, we suggest to read the user +documentation in the following order: + + * Learn the [basics](http://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/Primer) of Google Test, if you choose to use Google Mock with it (recommended). + * Read [Google Mock for Dummies](ForDummies.md). + * Read the instructions on how to [build Google Mock](http://code.google.com/p/googlemock/source/browse/trunk/README). + +You can also watch Zhanyong's [talk](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYpCyLI47rM) on Google Mock's usage and implementation. + +Once you understand the basics, check out the rest of the docs: + + * CheatSheet - all the commonly used stuff at a glance. + * CookBook - recipes for getting things done, including advanced techniques. + +If you need help, please check the KnownIssues and FrequentlyAskedQuestions before +posting a question on the [googlemock](http://groups.google.com/group/googlemock) +discussion group. + +We'd love to have your help! Please +read the DevGuide if you are willing to contribute to the development. + +Happy mocking!
