I am trying to use global fixtures in my tests but I may be misinterpreting the documentations.
Did you look here? http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/boost.test/libs/test/doc/html/test/refere...
The following toy example doesn't work :
Correct. The global fixture won't become the base class of your test cases. Use BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_CASE to make a fixture the base class of a particular test case or BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE to make a fixture the base class of all test cases in a suite. BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE is for global setup/teardown where the c'tor runs before any test case and the d'tor runs after all test cases. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline The Computer Graphics Museum http://computergraphicsmuseum.org The Terminals Wiki http://terminals.classiccmp.org Legalize Adulthood!
