I want to test complex qml gui using QuickTest framewrok. The C++ portion of the code is very short:

#include <QtQuickTest/quicktest.h>
QUICK_TEST_MAIN(QmlFormToBeTested)


The qml document looks like this:

import QtQuick 2.3
import QtQuick.Controls 1.2
import QtGraphicalEffects 1.0
import CalcCritRangeSetup 1.0
import CfgEnableTable 1.0
import PrecisionHelper 1.0
import UnitsSetupTable 1.0

Rectangle
{
id: criticalRanges

width: sys.width
height: sys.height
color: sys.screen_background_color

property int lowEntryError: 0
property int highEntryError: 0
property string enableState: ""
property variant selectedInput: null
property variant selectedRectangle: null
property int selectedType: -1
property bool changeMade: false
property bool canEdit: false
property bool showKeyboard: false
property string selectedParameter: ""
...

The following import modules are from database models that are needed for the view:
CalcCritRangeSetup 1.0
CfgEnableTable 1.0
PrecisionHelper 1.0
UnitsSetupTable 1.0

In other words, the qml file is coupled with other c++ code. In real application, the main c++ will initialized the database, and register these database model and use them in qml code, and all works fine.

I try to use the QUICK_TEST_MAIN(QmlFormToBeTested) to test the qml file. As the main is generated by macro, and can't use c++ code to register model for qml use. So was wondering if anyone has suggestions for this ? Is it ok to generate a QmlGuiInit Plugin that include all the initialization and registration of the models? or perhaps other suggestions for this kind of complex qml gui unit test?

Thanks in advance,

Alex
