boost-test

Using Boost 1.46.1 on Windows x86, Android TI 2.2 I have defined my own test suite tree, since I need the user to choose order of the tests. although I'm aware the tests should be independent, this is a requirement. The test suite tree was redefined using my own implementation of test_suite* init_unit_test_suite(int, char**) . For automated test cases and automated test suites, there are Boost macros: BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_CASE and BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE( suite_name, F ) . These macros register the function to the framework::master_test_suite() , which is undesired behavior in this case. Global

One of my favorite unit testing frameworks is PHPUnit because it supports test dependencies (i.e. the ability to mark tests as dependent upon other tests, running the dependent tests conditionally on the success of their dependencies). I've been using the Boost testing framework more recently to test my C++ code, and while it suits most of my unit testing needs, it doesn't appear to support test dependencies. I've scoured the documentation for the Boost testing framework and have found various hints that Boost supports this feature, but I've yet to find a documentation page or any concrete

I know by default report is directed to standard-error, and so one has to redirect it to a file. My question is shall we do this inside a global fixture? Which isn't seem to be working for me some how. This is what i tried - struct MyConfig { MyConfig() : testReport("fileName.log") { if(!testReport.fail()) original = std::cerr.rdbuf(testReport.rdbuf()); } ~MyConfig() { cerr.rdbuf(original); testReport.close(); } ofstream testReport; streambuf* original; }; BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE(MyConfig); After running the test, report outputs on console only, though a 0kb file is created with the given name.
