What is Boost.Test?

Boost.Test is a C++03/11/14/17 unit testing library, available on a wide range of platforms and compilers.

The library is part of [Boost](www.boost.org). The latest release of the library is available from the boost web site.

Full instructions for use of this library can be accessed from http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/test/

Key features

Easy to get started with:
1. download and deflate the latest boost archive
2. create a test module with this (header version): #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE your_test_module #include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>
3. Write your first test case: BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE( your_test_case ) { std::vector<int> a{1, 2}; std::vector<int> b{1, 2}; BOOST_TEST( a == b ); }
4. build and run
5. done
powerful and unique test assertion macro BOOST_TEST, that understands floating points, collections, strings... and uses appropriate comparison paradigm
self-registering test cases, organize cases in test suites, apply fixtures on test cases, suites or globally
provide assertion context for advanced diagnostic on failure
powerful and extensible dataset tests
add decoration to test cases and suites for advanced description, group/label, and dependencies
powerful command line options and test case filters
extensible logging, XML and JUNIT outputs for third-party tools (eg. cont. integration)
various usage (shared/static library/header only) for faster integration and/or compilation/build cycles, smaller binaries
