My understanding is that WARN is working the way it's supposed to--it just warns you that something doesn't match, but a warning by itself doesn't cause something to be flagged as a failure. If you want a failure, use CHECK or REQUIRE (depending on whether you want further checks to be made or for testing to stop immediately).

Hey everyone,

I can make BOOST_CHECK produce a failure message like this:

 BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE( test_case2 )  {             BOOST_CHECK( 1+1 == 3 );  }

But when I try BOOST_WARN, all tests pass:

 BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE( test_case3 )  {             BOOST_WARN( 1+1 == 3 );  }

Running 3 test cases...

*** No errors detected

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. Can someone point me in the right direction? Both BOOST_REQUIRE and BOOST_CHECK work OK. It's only BOOST_WARN that does not work for my testing.

Thanks,
