It's all good and interesting but would you prefer minimal testing component? You stuck with a single BOOST_CHECK tool and couldn't figure out why particular assertion fails. You could use debugger but using BOOST_CHEKK_EQUAL would give you much more change to figure it you quicker without one.
Without a doubt, Boost.Test singlehandedly eliminated one of my biggest objections to test-first coding. I still don't do it near as much as I would like, but Boost.Test surely eliminated one of my biggest obstacles. I really like what it provide. However... I still can't figure out how to use the macro that checks equivalence between floating point numbers. The interface is just too strange, and the docs are not very clear. I played around with it for a while, and then just stopped trying to use it. That's really my biggest complaint with the test library (so, it can't be too bad for me at least ;-).
