2 recommendations for a novice

[Jean-Christophe Demers]

Hi,

I begin to use Catch and would like recommendations to some issues that certainly will seem very simple.

First, I use MSVC 2013 and it work really nice. Thanks for this really nice tool.

Here my questions :

1. I have created a static library and, to do unit testing, I have created an additional project that tests the library. Is this the best approach or do you have another recommendation?
   
2. I wonder what is the best strategy to test template classes? Will create a file  (*.cpp)  having the same name as that of the class  (*.h)  is adequate? Or is it still a good solution to use external project for testing?

Many thanks to all,

1. That's what I do and is certainly a very common method. I like it because it separates the test code from the deliverable product.

2. Again I would include the test code in the additional project
