How do I rename the `setUp` and `tearDown` functions?

I'm working on a project that enforces snake_case casing for function names. For consistency reasons, is there any way I can tell Unity to use function names like set_up and tear_down?

Hi.

This is the first time I've heard this request. It's not a name which can be configured with settings at the moment. That's not to say there isn't a workaround, though.

A couple of options:

One option is that you can add a simple #define to do the job:

#define setUp() set_up()
#define tearDown() tear_down()

This could also be done at the command line (as part of your call to the compiler). For example, if you're using gcc:

-DsetUp=set_up -DtearDown=tear_down

Finally, you could add a unity_config.h file (see option UNITY_INCLUDE_CONFIG_H in UnityConfigurationGuide.h). In the unity_config.h file, you can add helpful settings, customer assertions, and helper functions. This can include the define above OR this:

extern void set_up();
extern void tear_down();

void setUp(void) {
  set_up();
}

void tearDown(void) {
  tear_down();
}

Thanks for the help. I went with the unity_config.h approach.
