[Boost-users] Re: Unit Test question: BOOST_CHECK_MESSAGE and highlogging levels

Folks,

I just noticed something: a unit test with something like this

BOOST_CHECK_MESSAGE ( true, "this should never be seen" );

will, of course, be silent when run... unless you've got the logging turned all the way up. When run with

--log_level=all --report_level=detailed

this turns up in the output:

./../util/unitTest/test_auto.C(32): info: this should never be seen

Is this intentional? It is suprising to me... if the message in the check says something about "failing" or "errors", the output appears to be signaling a unit test failure when really it isn't.

With latest CVS HEAD software the message would look like:

./../util/unitTest/test_auto.C(32): info: check 'this should never be seen' passed

And yes - it is intentional. log_level=all mean that all assertions including those that passed are logged. Gennadiy
