Google Test will not execute my test case

[Nick Butts]

I am experiencing some weird behavior with 1.6.0 version of Google
Test. I've compiled a simple test case:

#include <gtest/gtest.h>
using testing::Test;

TEST(hello, world)
{
ASSERT_TRUE(false);
}

I have a large project that is compiling multiple shared libraries.
Eventually I have a shared library called libasdatacapture.so. The
final step is to compile the unit tests and link in gtest_main.a.

This works, but when I run the executable I see the following on
stdout:
Running main() from gtest_main.cc
[==========] Running 0 tests from 0 test cases.
[==========] 0 tests from 0 test cases ran. (1 ms total)
[ PASSED ] 0 tests.

I've never seen this behavior before. I've search and I haven't found
anyone describe a similar problem. Any ideas?

Maybe youre simple_test.cc file wasn't linked into your test executable?
