Hi again, While developing tests I sometimes find that functions that should not throw exceptions do. Because this is an unexpected situation, I would like to know what exception has been thrown so I know what problem to look for in my test design. Unfortunately the Boost.Test framework only provides a terse message like this: test.cpp(123): fatal error in "fnTest": exception thrown by test(); It doesn't tell you which exception was thrown, nor the reason why. Is there some way to tell Boost.Test to include the exception message (from what()) if the exception derives from std::exception? This would make problem solving much quicker as you would not have to run the tests through a debugger to see which exception is being thrown and why. There is some discussion about this on Stack Overflow[1] but the consensus seems to be the best solution is not to use BOOST_*_NO_THROW. If you don't use these and an exception is thrown, a lot more detail is provided. Assuming this is a limitation in Boost.Test, would it be possible to add this as a feature so that future versions include the same level of detail whether you use BOOST_*_NO_THROW or not? Many thanks, Adam. [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15133259/boost-check-no-throw-how-to-get-...
