Hello srikanth,eswar & max_i ,

Thanks for your replies.

Now my project having

Test count - 27
Test Failed - 11
Memory Leak - 0

Why this test fail occurs.

Is the following code causes for test failed or memory leak.

RFs fsession;
                     fsession.Connect();
                     fsession.RmDir(Newpath);
                     fsession.Close ();

There are many segments like this in my project .Are they caues for test fail. What are the reasons behind the test fail .
How I check out the this failures.
How much test failed will be allowed.

Thanks alot.

Common reasons for memory leak are:

1. You allocate memory and doesnt release or delete in dtor r where ever it is. This is little easier to find.

2. Some memory leaks occur because of leaves. So you need to be very careful when dealing with any thing which leaves.

Hi Prathibha,

Put break points in each class destructor and debug it.
