+// write a test which requires code running out of process.
+//
+// To create a multiprocess test simply follow these steps:
+//
+// 1) Derive your test from MultiProcessTest. Example:
+//
+// class MyTest : public MultiProcessTest {
+// };
+//
+// TEST_F(MyTest, TestCaseName) {
+// ...
+// }
+//
+// 2) Create a mainline function for the child processes and include
+// testing/multiprocess_func_list.h.
+// See the declaration of the MULTIPROCESS_TEST_MAIN macro
+// in that file for an example.
+// 3) Call SpawnChild("foo"), where "foo" is the name of
+// the function you wish to run in the child processes.
+// That's it!

+ protected:
+ // Run a child process.
+ // 'procname' is the name of a function which the child will
