[Boost-users] Where is BOOST_TEST - the universal testing tool

[Adi Shavit]

Hi,

  I read here and here about BOOST_TEST - the universal testing tool.

Where can I find it? 

Is it still not part of the library?

Thanks,

Adi

AFAIK, any release in 1.5x has got it

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/libs/local_function/doc/html/boost_localfunction/getting_started.html

and it is defined here:

https://github.com/boostorg/detail/blob/master/include/boost/detail/lightweight_test.hpp

Best regards,

Yeah, I saw that, but it seems to be more of an internal thing and not really connected to the full Boost.Test framework as described in the linked messages.

I think you are looking for the version that is currently in the develop branch of the Boost.Test repository. It's not released yet but recent discussions suggest that it's already in a usable state.

Thanks! That might be it :-).

Do you have a link to the repo/branch/commit ? I couldn't find it? Where can I see these recent discussions?

The repositories are now hosted by github, Boost.Test is there: https://github.com/boostorg/test

It's part of a super repository: https://github.com/boostorg/boost

Check the wiki for more info: https://svn.boost.org

 

Where can I see these recent discussions?

The same place you found the initial links, in mail archives, but for boost-develop mailing list.
Take a look there: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Boost-Dev-f2600599.html

search for "test" in the subjects and you'll find the recent discussions.

Other guys gave you the link to develop branch on git server. This is where
you can pick up develop version of Boost.Test, which has this implemented.

Yes. Unfortunately ;(. And we'll need to go through some kind of review
before it is. But ... things looking better on this front now ;)

Cool :-)

I look forward to seeing it.

Warm regards,

HI Gennadiy,

  Is there some ballpark estimate of when this is expected to be reviewed/released?

Thanks,

Adi

I just restarted the effort of writing documentation with the help of another
guy. We'll see how fast we can work it out. Hopefully soon. Keep an eye on
updates in dev/users lists.

If you would be interested to help with this effort, we will be there faster

I will. Thanks.

;)

If time allows I'll take a look at the dev branch and get in touch.

I've created separate branch for doc update work. Ping me when/if you are
interested.
