[section:tools_assertion_severity_level Assertion severity level]
|
|
|
|
All the tools are supplied in three flavours/levels, from lowest to highest:
|
|
|
|
# `WARN`
|
|
# `CHECK` and
|
|
# `REQUIRE`
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
* __BOOST_WARN_EQUAL__
|
|
* __BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL__
|
|
* __BOOST_REQUIRE_EQUAL__
|
|
|
|
If an assertion designated by
|
|
the tool passes, confirmation message can be printed in log output [footnote to manage what messages appear
|
|
in the test log stream, set the proper [link boost_test.test_output.log_runtime_config log level]].
|
|
If an assertion designated by the tool failed, depending on the level following
|
|
will happened [footnote in some cases log message can be slightly different to reflect failed tool
|
|
specifics]:

[note in the above table, the ['test execution] is related to the current test case ['only]. Hence ['"aborts"] means
|
|
that the current test case is aborted, but other test cases in the test tree are still executed.]
|
|
|
|
Regularly you should use `CHECK` level tools to implement your assertions. You can use `WARN` level tools to validate
|
|
aspects less important then correctness: performance, portability, usability etc. You should use `REQUIRE` level
|
|
tools only if continuation of the test case doesn't make sense if this assertions fails.
