C.4 Small Test Programs

Another useful debugging technique, one that the authors use all the time, is writing small test programs to see how one specific feature works in a carefully constructed test case. It helps when writing small test programs to have a set of library wrapper functions and some simple error functions, such as the ones we have used throughout this text. This reduces the amount of code that we have to write, but still provides the required testing for errors.
