Re: [Boost-users] [Test] Reviving BOOST_*_CLOSE_COLLECTIONS request

Hello,

We are in the process of creating unit tests for our in-house application development and have selected Boot.Test as a library.  I’ve been toying with the library for a while now and there is one feature that I feel is missing.  It is the capacity to check a whole collection for close

values,

i.e. the “close” equivalent of BOOST_*_EQUAL_COLLECTIONS.

Devel Boost.Test can do much better: BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(foo) { vector<float> a, b; BOOST_TEST( a == b, tolerance(1e-5) ); BOOST_TEST( a <= b, percent_tolerance = 1e-5 ); } BOOST_TEST_DECORATOR( -tolerance = 1e-7 ) BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(goo) { vector<float> a, b; BOOST_TEST( a > b ); BOOST_TEST( a != b ); } e.t.c.
