34.1 Exploring the Standard Library

In addition to inserting procedure calls from the standard library, it is helpful to take a look at how functions are implemented and organized.

• Action Open the library itself, i.e. the suite qfs.qft, which is located in the directory qftest-10.0.0/include of your QF-Test installation.

You will see a main package qfs that encloses the specific packages. The qfs package helps to easily identify procedures as belonging to the standard library.

In almost all procedures of our library you will notice the use of the variable $(client). This is a standard mechanism to keep test suites independent of a specific SUT. For using the standard library it is required that a valid value for $(client) is set before any of its procedures can be used.
