    Probably, if you are careful, but why not just use a C specific unit test framework?

    A quick search brings up CUnit, but I will not give you any opinion on it since I have not tried it.

    How about CuTest?
    In en.wikipedia.org they wrote about Cutest that it is Simple, straightforward, fast. Single .c file. Used in the Apache Portable Runtime Library.

    I have to test lot of pointers concepts and Brew Mobile Plotform API's calls using CuTest.
