Introducing testing frameworks

As for the frameworks, the current de facto standard is Google's GTest. Together with its counterpart GMock, they form a small suite of tools that allow you to follow the best practices of testing in C++.

Other popular alternatives to GTest/GMock duo are Catch2, CppUnit, and Doctest. CppUnit has been available for a long time, but its lack of recent releases means we don't recommend it for fresh projects. Both Catch2 and Doctest support the modern C++ standards – in particular, C++14, C++17, and C++20.

To compare these testing frameworks, we will use the same codebase that we want to test. Using it as a basis, we will then implement tests in each of the frameworks.
