Comment (by sumedhghaisas@…):

 Okay I think you are right... The extra thing that I would love to have is
 to pass multiple classes instead of multiple params... sort of like...


 {{{
 typedef std::tuple<Class A, Class B, Class C> t_params;

 BOOST_DATA_TEST_SUITE( s1, t_params )

 BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE(test1) {

     T test_object(...)... // T is templated class

 }

 BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE(test2) {

      T test_object(...)... // T is templated class

 }

 BOOST_TEST_SUITE_END()

 }}}

 Basically the tests will run for each class mentioned. I agree this way is
 much cleaner than my way. But I am not sure about the implementation of
 such thing, that I have to check. This kind of feature is helpful
 especially when many classes implement the same thing different ways with
 similar APIs.
