## Introduction
|

|

Now that you have read the [googletest Primer](primer.md) and learned how to write
|
||||
tests using googletest, it's time to learn some new tricks. This document will
|
||||
show you more assertions as well as how to construct complex failure messages,
|
||||
propagate fatal failures, reuse and speed up your test fixtures, and use various
|
||||
flags with your tests.
