In this post, I will describe how to start making unit tests in C++ with Boost.Test.
I've only glanced through the parts, so I might have missed something. Also please note that my comments are very much from a TDD point of view.
In Part 2, you recommend using the CHECK macros by default. Being a long-time Boost.Test user (as well as a long-time TDD:er) I strongly believe that by default one should always use the REQUIRE variety of the Boost.Test macros, for a couple of reasons:
This only effectively implements single assertion per test case policy, which is what you as hardcore TDDer probably doing anyway. For all us other folks CHECK should be default level. REQUIRE should be used if you actually require one assertion to pass before you proceed to next one. Gennadiy
