Model Test
ModelTest provides a way to check for common errors in implementations of QAbstractItemModel.
ModelTest continuously checks a model as it changes, helping to verify the state and catching many common errors the moment they show up.

Some of the conditions caught include:
- Verifying X number of rows have been inserted in the correct place after the signal rowsAboutToBeInserted() says X rows will be inserted.
 - The parent of the first index of the first row is a QModelIndex()
 - Calling index() twice in a row with the same values will return the same QModelIndex
 - If rowCount() says there are X number of rows, model test will verify that is true.
 - Many possible off by one bugs
 - hasChildren() returns true if rowCount() is greater then zero.
 - and many more…
 
To use the model test do the following:
- Include the pri file at the end of your project pro file using the include() command like so:
 
include(../path/to/dir/modeltest.pri)
- Then in your source include "modeltest.h" and instantiate ModelTest with your model so the test can live for the lifetime of your model. For example:
 
#include <modeltest.h>
QDirModel *model = new QDirModel(this);
new ModelTest(model, this);
- That is it. When the test finds a problem it will assert. modeltest.cpp contains some hints on how to fix problems that the test finds.
