That seems like a lot of nice improvements. However, there is one thing that could save a lot of time for us, and that's the ability to run a specific test as the first one.
Is that hard to add?
You can always run that test by name and do a second run which skips that test case:
test.exe --run=my/special/test test.exe --run=!my/special/test
More generically you can attach label to some specific test units and run them exclusively.
Direct support within single test tree pass of priorities may not be trivial.
Ok. Maybe I should define better what I have found a need for (it would save tons of time, FWIW). When I said "test" I meant a single test case, like defined by BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE. If "test" means test suite as defined by BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE, I guess I can get most of what I want by making a dummy test suite and move my problematic code to that suite while debugging. regards -Thorsten
