Re: [Boost-users] [Boost.Test] how to get current test outcome fromwithin test case

Well.. in general, not that often, I suppose.

In our augmented version of your test framework, I've implemented
fairly sophisticated logic to catch memory leaks on a per-test-case
basis.  In the results accounting, I need to know whether a test
failed because of a memory leak or because it failed a predicate
check.

Come to think of it, perhaps this belongs more as an FAQ item for the
documentation rather than a tool proper.
