Hi,
I'm trying to figure out what the best way to use boost.test to achieve
something close to TDD (test driven development) is; I should presumably also
mention that I'm using qmake and not bjam as a build utility.
I've managed to build and use boost.test fine (after figuring out that I
needed to add -DBOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK), but what I haven't been able to achieve
is to
a) have several smaller test-cases/suites for TDD so that I can rapidly
recompile and run a small subset of tests whilst I'm developing a specific
class.
b) have one big test-suite, integrating all the above, for regression testing
to be run periodically (after the above subset of tests passed; on svn
commit etc.)
I haven't figured out how to set things up so that I can compile individual
tests to .o files and then either simply build a complete regression suite
executable from them or an executable from just one (or a few) of these tests;
because I don't know how to use the autoregistration facilities without ending
up with multiple main()s.
My test files currently look something like this:
//file foo_test.cpp
#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE foo_test
#include
