Ok – with more docs it now looks convincing. I’ll try it on my next standalone project.

 

It won’t replace Boost.Test – we have much too much invested in it (and we support much older compilers), but that’s no reason why it couldn’t be a Boost library.  To get through a Boost review, you need some enthusiastic users.

Thanks for your valuable feedback.

 

I added initial versions of tutorial and user-guide to README. It's not ideal yet but it's a start.

* https://github.com/boost-experimental/ut#tutorial 

* https://github.com/boost-experimental/ut#user-guide

 

I also updated benchmarks with Boost.Test-1.71.0 (static library).

I didn't add Boost.LightweightTest though as it's just assertions (no tests/suites/etc...) so it makes it difficult to compare due to missing features.

* https://github.com/boost-experimental/ut#benchmarks 

 

I hope that helps a bit.

 

Thanks again, Kris

It looks very interesting. The idea of not using macros is very appealing to me.

However, as the other commenters have mentioned, without a tutorial and full reference it's difficult to judge whether it's ready for use in production.

 

Are there plans to develop this?

Hi,

 

I was wondering whether there is any interest in exploring a C++20 single header/single module, macro-free Unit Testing Framework with no dependencies?
