This revision is now accepted and ready to land.

LGTM if you don't want to consider my remaining suggestion for this patch.

Thanks for the extra tests.



================
Comment at: unittests/Process/minidump/MinidumpParserTest.cpp:52
     ASSERT_GT(parser->GetData().size(), 0UL);
+    auto result = parser->Initialize();
+    if (expect_failure)

It also makes it possible for each test to decide whether to ASSERT or EXPECT.  And it eliminates the need for the bool parameter which is hard to decipher at the call sites.

SetUpData would just return an error status instead of ASSERTing.  The actual ASSERTs would be placed in the tests that call SetUpData.  As I said, that would add some duplication, because individual tests would have to ASSERT (or EXPECT) on the result of SetUpData, but it makes the tests easier to read and maintain the tests.

Since there are other tests using SetUpData, they would have to be updated, so maybe you want to declare this suggestion as out-of-scope for this patch.  Anyway, I'm happy that you eliminated the boolean argument.
