Use Valgrind to test for memory leaks:¹⁾

valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --track-origins=yes --show-reachable=yes --show-error-list=yes --error-limit=no <executable>

or, if this produces too much warnings about uninitialised values:

valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --undef-value-errors=no --show-reachable=yes --show-error-list=yes --error-limit=no <executable>

Valgrind can also be used with CTest.²⁾

ctest -V -C Debug -T memcheck

when putting this line into CMakeLists.txt:

set(MEMORYCHECK_SUPPRESSIONS_FILE "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/.valgrind_suppressions" CACHE FILEPATH "" FORCE)
include(CTest)
