Bug: Boolean is found to be both true and false simultaneously about unity HOT 3 CLOSED

Perhaps this bug could be fixed by defining TEST_ASSERT_TRUE in terms of TEST_ASSERT_FALSE so there can never be a discrepancy between the two? Or have them both use a common method of determining if a boolean is true or false.

E.g.

#define is_false(b) (b == 0)
#define TEST_ASSERT_FALSE(b) assert(is_false(b))
#define TEST_ASSERT_TRUE(b) assert(!is_false(b))

from unity.

It looks like this is not a bug with Unity per se.

I tried running this code in the same project:

    // ...
    bool boolean;
    memset(&boolean, 90, sizeof(boolean));
    if (boolean == true) {
        printf("boolean is true\n");
    }
    if (boolean == false) {
        printf("boolean is false\n");
    }
    if (boolean == 1) {
        printf("boolean is 1\n");
    }
    if (boolean == 0) {
        printf("boolean is 0\n");
    }
    // ...

And the output is:

boolean is true
boolean is false
boolean is 1
boolean is 0

from unity.

I can't reproduce the problem. Also, I suspect you're using an older Unity? The latest version has the following:

#define TEST_ASSERT_TRUE(condition)     UNITY_TEST_ASSERT(       (condition), __LINE__, " Expected TRUE Was FALSE")
#define TEST_ASSERT_FALSE(condition)    UNITY_TEST_ASSERT(      !(condition), __LINE__, " Expected FALSE Was TRUE")

As long as your compiler is working, I don't believe this could demonstrate the problem you're seeing.
