Hi ,

Thanks Zhanyong for your response; I'm happy to hear that you plan to
open up the event listener.
I have to admit that I missed the GoogleTestDevGuide page, but anyway
now I think my patch is not enough, so I don't want to have it
reviewed.

The listener I have in mind would write the test results to several
files (sorted in a directory structure by testcase and test) also a
summary file would be written. These files would also be used within
tests for logging.
It is not so important for unit tests but as I plan to use the
framework also as test controller for component and even subsystem
tests it gets more important there.
I already have a implementation using cppunit; but I'm now thinking
about a switch to googletest.

Regards,
Stefan.

Some users want to check heap leak in every test.  Opening up the event listener
interface would allow them to do that by responding to "test start" and "test 
end"
events.  Therefore I'm bumping up the priority to high.

Issue 77 has been merged into this issue.

For those who missed the announcement in the mailing list:

We have the design for the event listener interface out and open for comments. 
The
design document is available at
