| There is already
| BOOST_CHECK_CLOSE and BOOST_CHECK_CLOSE_FRACTION. First
| based on percent
| tolerance. Second is based on fraction tolerance
Yes, but it's a matter of making it absolutely clear to the reader that the check is with tolerance as a percent - without him
having to re-check the docs to refresh his (in my case failing) memory.
