Hello!
I just released doctest - https://github.com/onqtam/doctest All the info about it can be found on github.
So do you think it can enter the boost project? How much work will it take to get it into boost except for adding boost in the title? Will it or boost benefit from that addition?
Also I've sort-of followed the Best Practice Handbook (I consider it very valuable) as much as possible - https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BestPracticeHandbook
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
One reason I would go for libraries like Boost.Test or GTest is the ability to define parametrized test cases: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_61_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/tests_org... Does doctest offer or plans to offer such thing? Let me remark, that Boost.Test also has this feature from Catch that it does not treat BOOST_TEST(a == b) as one expression, but instead decomposes the expression tree. The only advantage over Boost.Test seems to be the compile times, and that is an important feature, I agree. It would really help if you offered a comparison between Boost.Test and doctest. I have an impression that many people do not realize the capabilities of the new Boost.Test framework after it has been rewritten. Regards, &rzej
