Description

Right now we are not using any framework for easily write c unit-test when developing (or later).

The idea is to research available libraries, pick one and try to include in our workflow.

preliminary candidates:
https://github.com/google/googletest
https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2
https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/tree/Catch1.x <- Actually, Qpid Proton is using this one (old catch2)
