personally I use Glib test (https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Testing.html) for c testing, but I'll check this out. Does this let you test what a program sends to stdout and stderr, and let you trap a subprocess to test that the program exits right?

By default, if the test raises any signal or exits with anything other than 0, the test fails.

Otherwise, you can't (yet!) test if the code exits with a specific value nor simply redirect input/output, but I'll be sure to take these suggestions into account, thanks!

Both will be implemented quite soon.
