NoBug is a debugging library for instrumenting C and C++ programs
NoBug is a library which provides assertions, logging statements, and annotations for C and C++ programs. It includes pre-/post-condition and invariant checks, as well as generic assertions. Checks are enabled based on build-levels and scope tags. It also includes debugger support (valgrind), dumping of data structures, logging your application’s activities, runtime customizable logging via environment variables, different logging targets (ringbuffer, stderr, syslog, debugger, etc.), and annotation of your source code regarding known bugs, things to do, and planned things. It can track resources and detect deadlocks. Further it can be used to instrumentate your source to simulate errors by injecting faults and do coverage checking to find out if all (instrumentated) errors are properly handled. Additionally, the NoBug project is used to maintain a script and some tools to setup testsuites
