I really like the Boost.Test framework, however, I cant help but have a bit of envy over how great the output from googletest looks.

I've been playing around with writing a formatter/outputter that emulates the output style of googletest, and I am willing to spend some time to pretty it up and generate a patch if there's interest. Does anyone think this would be a worthy submission to boost?

For an example of what the output looks like, this site has some great examples: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-googletestingframework.html

(just to clarify: I'm not suggesting changing any BOOST_TEST syntax, just adding a new optional way to format the test progress and results to stdout)

I don't use test, I use GTest, I think it was because of the mocking framework I decided to use it, but I have to say that it looks brilliant. Having that kind of look in Boost.Test gets a +1 from me. Jookia.
