Launch unit test with concole command

Hi!

I'm quite new to unit testing in Qt, but I managed to do a basic one. Here's the code:

TestingClass.h:

Code:

---

#ifndef TESTINGCLASS_H
#define TESTINGCLASS_H
 
#include <QObject>
#include <QtTest/QtTest>
 
#include "Calculus.h"
 
class TestingClass : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
 
private slots:
    void testCalculus();
};
 
#endif // TESTINGCLASS_H

---

TestingClass.cpp:

Code:

---

#include "TestingClass.h"
 
void TestingClass::testCalculus()
{
    Calculus calc;
    int sum = calc.addition(5, 5);
 
    QCOMPARE(sum, 10);
}

---

In the Calculus class, I just have a simple method that return the sum of two values, nothing more.
To run the test, I have a button in my main widget that can launch them when it's clicked, like so:

Code:

---

void MainWidget::on_testButton_clicked()
{
    TestingClass test;
    QTest::qExec(&test);
}

---

This work fine and as intended. When I click the button, the test are launched and I have the correct results in the application output of Qt Creator.

Now, I was wondering how I could launch those tests from a console command. I tried following this tutorial "https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtest-overview.html", but I find it a bit confusing.
Do someone know the steps to take to achieve that?

Added after 23 minutes:

Just to make an update.

I add this to the main.cpp:

Code:

---

#include "MainWidget.h"
#include "TestingClass.h"
 
#include <QApplication>
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
 
 
    QStringList args = QCoreApplication::arguments();
    for (int i = 0; i < args.size(); i++)
    {
        if (args.at(i) == "runTest")
        {
            TestingClass test;
            QTest::qExec(&test);
            return 0; // So that the application is not launched
        }
    }
 
 
    MainWidget w;
    w.show();
    return a.exec();
}

---

This works fine. But I'm not entirely sure that this is the correct way of doing things...
