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 fixture (BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE(fixure_name)
) remains unaffected in manual test suite definition.
I would like to use fixtures in Boost Unit Testing Framework for manually defined test suites and cases. A neat way.
There are some workarounds:
- Test Suite Fixture - can be defined as a first and last test among it's children suites/cases. This however affects the test results and acts as a separate test, which is not really a fine solution.
- Test Case Fixture - by wrapping a scoped instance around the test case function.
Is there any other, cleaner and nicer solution to my problem? I don't really have resources to dig deep into Boost library. On the other hand, I don't want to significantly decrease the quality and readability of the code on my side.

#include <boost/bind.hpp>

using namespace boost::unit_test;
BOOST_GLOBAL_FIXTURE(GFixture);
test_suite* init_unit_test_suite( int, char** )
{
test_suite* ts1 = BOOST_TEST_SUITE( "Suite1" );
boost::shared_ptr<TestClass1> test1 ( new TestClass1 );
ts1->add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( boost::bind(&TestClass1::Run, test1)));
boost::shared_ptr<TestClass2> test2 ( new TestClass2 );
ts1->add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( boost::bind(&TestClass2::Run, test2)));
boost::shared_ptr<TestClass3> test3 ( new TestClass3);
ts1->add( BOOST_TEST_CASE( boost::bind(&TestClass3::Run, test3)));
framework::master_test_suite().add( ts1 );
return 0;
