As it turns out this throws off the monitor. If my setup step throws this, boost test thinks that my test was ill defined (no assertions):
Entering test case "TEST_2"
Test case TEST_2 doesn't include any assertions
Leaving test case "TEST_2"
Leaving test suite "BasicTest"
Leaving test suite "BasicTest"
If I don't abort the setup, this executes all the test cases and doesn't say it doesn't include any assertions. I suppose the error message is harmless, but incorrect.
