It damn annoying to find that all my tests suddenly fail on msvc because of a change in the test system. Oh I'm sure it was announced somewhere and I don't care - its annoying none the less. Now what am I to do? Stop supporting msvc? Shouldn't that be my decision? Re write my tests to not use boost test? I don't want to do that!
It might be a good idea anyway. In my experience, Boost.Test is overpowered for the purposes of Boost regression testing, and on Windows it tends to stand in the way of debugging by "handling" crashes as exceptions rather than invoking JIT or the debugger. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
