// A MultiProcessTest is a test class which makes it easier to
// write a test which requires code running out of process.
//
// To create a multiprocess test simply follow these steps:
//
// 1) Derive your test from MultiProcessTest. Example:
//
// class MyTest : public MultiProcessTest {
// };
//
// TEST_F(MyTest, TestCaseName) {
// ...
// }
//
// 2) Create a mainline function for the child processes and include
// testing/multiprocess_func_list.h.
// See the declaration of the MULTIPROCESS_TEST_MAIN macro
// in that file for an example.
// 3) Call SpawnChild("foo"), where "foo" is the name of
// the function you wish to run in the child processes.
// That's it!

// Run a child process.

// // do client work here
