The most effective moment for a developer to receive feedback on their code is at the very moment they are composing it; however, compile-time feedback is most often limited to immediate, surface-level concerns (missing semicolons, incorrect types being returned, etc.). Leveraging the latest features of C++20, this talk will walk the audience through writing unit tests and regression tests for audio plugins that run instantly and perpetually at compile-time. Along the way, we will review the history of compile-time programming in C++, the additional free benefits from writing code that can be run at compile-time, and we will look ahead to what else we will be able to accomplish in C++23. Audio developers will be able to catch bugs in their code immediately after writing them and sleep soundly at night assured that their changes have not inadvertently altered the audio processing of their product.
