The question remains: "how do I learn/teach this library?" If I can't answer those questions, I also can't answer the question
How do I use this library?
I don't understand how other people have arrived at answers for themselves.

Look, I teach classes on Boost. If Boost.Test is not learnable and teachable, I have to tell my students to stay away from it. That's embarrassing for me, and bad for Boost.
Although I'm not teaching students, I can understand the difficulties you're talking about. However, you have to admit by the answers in this thread that many people managed to learn the library and use it extensively.
Yes. How did they do it?
The following link did it for us: http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/2009/07/04/c-unit-tests-with-boost-te... Then the official boost docs provided the necessary reference info, although it seems I have to go hunting to find the "BOOST_REQUIRE_xxx" reference table every time. Jeff
