Overview of this book

Qt is a powerful development framework that serves as a complete toolset for building cross-platform applications, helping you reduce development time and improve productivity. Completely revised and updated to cover C++17 and the latest developments in Qt 5.12, this comprehensive guide is the third edition of Application Development with Qt Creator. You'll start by designing a user interface using Qt Designer and learn how to instantiate custom messages, forms, and dialogues. You'll then understand Qt's support for multithreading, a key tool for making applications responsive, and the use of Qt's Model-View-Controller (MVC) to display data and content. As you advance, you'll learn to draw images on screen using Graphics View Framework and create custom widgets that interoperate with Qt Widgets. This Qt programming book takes you through Qt Creator's latest features, such as Qt Quick Controls 2, enhanced CMake support, a new graphical editor for SCXML, and a model editor. You'll even work with multimedia and sensors using Qt Quick, and finally develop applications for mobile, IoT, and embedded devices using Qt Creator. By the end of this Qt book, you'll be able to create your own cross-platform applications from scratch using Qt Creator and the C++ programming language.

Implementing test integration

Unit testing is a very important stage during application development but is oftentimes ignored by developers, especially beginners. Unit testing ensures that the quality of your application is up to scratch and improves the user experience. One of the methods for unit testing is to integrate auto tests into your project. In this section, we will learn how we can implement different types of auto tests in Qt Creator.

The Qt Test framework consists of two parts—Qt Test and Qt Quick Test, which test C++, QML, and GUI features, whereas the other two frameworks only test C++ features. Pick the one that suits your project the most. We will look into each of them here.
