I also found the lightweigt_test.hpp in Boost detail, so I was wondering whether or not that is now considered a viable enough choice for designing Boost component's tests.
It always has been. While Boost.Test has some cool features, they don't seem to markedly improve the quality of testing in a library that uses Boost.Test, which mostly depends on the skill of the test designer. Also, if you use lightweight_test.hpp you are liable to continue to get useful test results even if Boost.Test should be broken ;-) -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
