Hi Patrick,
I'm a big fan of unit tests but I must say I didn't use CuTest before.
Looks pretty slim and minimal which I guess is quite important for
multiplatform project such as c-ares.
Did you look at cmocka (fork of Google's cmockery) ?
http://cmocka.cryptomilk.org/
We use it in the SSSD mainly because the SSSD is a network facing deamon
and in these scenarios support for mock objects comes very handy in
order to simulate the networking traffic.
