Unit testing for C applications

[michelle]

Hello there,

I have just come across codeLite for the first time and am also developing in C for the first time. A core programming activity for me is unit testing via test driven development. I am in the process of trying to find a suitable lightweight IDE as a step away from Borland C++ v5...

Could somebody please explain to me how/if CodeLite supports unit testing for C?
Is there already an inbuilt unit testing feature for C programs or would I need to choose an external tool (such as one of these) and somehow plug it in to CodeLite? Any recommendations from those already travelled down this path?

Thank-you in advance and apologies for my ignorance, Michelle
