Unit testing VC++ MFC application using CPPUNIT or GTEST

Question

I have a project developed in VC++ MFC. every classs is extended by CObject class. And the default constructors are not defined (may kept protected). I just want to unit test that application, while creating object i was finding runtime errors like Unhand-led exception access voilation at writing and reading locations error. Is it possible to test the application which is extending CObject class ???

It's really not clear to me what is stopping you doing the testing without some examples (maybe you could invent a simple example to demonstrate your issue). If you want to access the protected class constructor you could do something like this.

class A
{
    protected:

    A() {}

    friend class TestClassA;
};

class TestClassA
{
    public:

    void TestA( void)
    {
        A a;
        // test a
    }
};
