I have a test program that looks like this, in stylized form: -------------------------- #include <boost/test/auto_unit_test.hpp> using namespace boost::unit_test_framework; void validate(X args) { if (some tests) BOOST_ERROR("message"); } BOOST_AUTO_UNIT_TEST(testfunction) { // set up arguments validate(args) } ---------------------------------- When I run this with report-level detailed, it reports that there are 0 assertions in testfunction. Furthermore, the assertions done in validate are not even added to the overall number of assertions reported for the run. I know the checks are being run, because I have seen errors from them. Also, the error messages include the name "testfunction", so it is available at run time. It would be nice if the error reporting and logging functions got their info at run-time; apparently they are grabbing it from some pre-processor magic at the moment (I haven't examined the code in detail; that's just an inference from the behavior). Since the tests do seem to be run, this is basically a cosmetic problem, but it would be nice to fix. If any easy fixes occur to anyone, I'd love to know. Boost 1.31.0 on Debian. P.S. The module's author is listed as rogeeff@fusemail.com in the documentation, but that address doesn't work. -- Ross Boylan wk: (415) 502-4031 530 Parnassus Avenue (Library) rm 115-4 ross@biostat.ucsf.edu Dept of Epidemiology and Biostatistics fax: (415) 476-9856 University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, CA 94143-0840 hm: (415) 550-1062
