### Legacy Build Scripts
Before settling on CMake, we have been providing hand-maintained build
projects/scripts for Visual Studio, Xcode, and Autotools. While we continue to
provide them for convenience, they are not actively maintained any more. We
highly recommend that you follow the instructions in the above sections to
integrate Google Test with your existing build system.
If you still need to use the legacy build scripts, here's how:
The msvc\ folder contains two solutions with Visual C++ projects. Open the
`gtest.sln` or `gtest-md.sln` file using Visual Studio, and you are ready to
build Google Test the same way you build any Visual Studio project. Files that
have names ending with -md use DLL versions of Microsoft runtime libraries (the
/MD or the /MDd compiler option). Files without that suffix use static versions
of the runtime libraries (the /MT or the /MTd option). Please note that one must
use the same option to compile both gtest and the test code. If you use Visual
Studio 2005 or above, we recommend the -md version as /MD is the default for new
projects in these versions of Visual Studio.
On Mac OS X, open the `gtest.xcodeproj` in the `xcode/` folder using Xcode.
Build the "gtest" target. The universal binary framework will end up in your
selected build directory (selected in the Xcode "Preferences..." -> "Building"
pane and defaults to xcode/build). Alternatively, at the command line, enter:
xcodebuild
This will build the "Release" configuration of gtest.framework in your default
build location. See the "xcodebuild" man page for more information about
building different configurations and building in different locations.
If you wish to use the Google Test Xcode project with Xcode 4.x and above, you
need to either:
* update the SDK configuration options in xcode/Config/General.xconfig.
Comment options `SDKROOT`, `MACOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`, and `GCC_VERSION`. If
you choose this route you lose the ability to target earlier versions of
MacOS X.
* Install an SDK for an earlier version. This doesn't appear to be supported
by Apple, but has been reported to work
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5378518).

# Googletest Primer
## Introduction: Why googletest?
*googletest* helps you write better C++ tests.
googletest is a testing framework developed by the Testing
Technology team with Google's specific
requirements and constraints in mind. No matter whether you work on Linux,
Windows, or a Mac, if you write C++ code, googletest can help you. And it
supports *any* kind of tests, not just unit tests.

googletest allows you to run it in isolation for quick debugging.
1. Tests should be well *organized* and reflect the structure of the tested
code. googletest groups related tests into test cases that can share data
code. googletest groups related tests into test suites that can share data
and subroutines. This common pattern is easy to recognize and makes tests
easy to maintain. Such consistency is especially helpful when people switch
projects and start to work on a new code base.
1. Tests should be *portable* and *reusable*. Google has a lot of code that is
platform-neutral, its tests should also be platform-neutral. googletest
works on different OSes, with different compilers, with
or without exceptions, so googletest tests can work with a variety of
configurations.

as possible. googletest doesn't stop at the first test failure. Instead, it
only stops the current test and continues with the next. You can also set up
