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:
- download and deflate the latest boost archive
- create a test module with this (header version):
#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE your_test_module #include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>
- 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 ); }
- build and run
- 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
