[section Change log]

[h4 Boost.Test v3.3 / boost 1.62]

[h5 New features]
* Boost.Test now treats each sample of a dataset test case as being a uniquely named test case under the same test suite,
  which enables the (re)run of one particular sample from the command line interface. See
  [link boost_test.tests_organization.test_cases.test_case_generation.datasets_auto_registration.samples_and_test_tree here]
  for more details,
* Boost.Test learned to interpret ':' as a separator for the test filters: the string passed to
  [link boost_test.utf_reference.rt_param_reference.run_test `--run_test`]
  generates tokens as if `--run_test` has been repeated, which enables the set up of several test filters
  through the associated environment variable `BOOST_TEST_RUN_FILTERS`
* the __UTF__ learned to log the messages in the xUnit/JUNIT log format.
  See [link boost_test.test_output.log_formats.log_junit_format here] for more details.
* the __UTF__ learned to have several loggers at the same time, each of which with their own log level and log sink.
  See the associated command line switch [link boost_test.utf_reference.rt_param_reference.logger `--logger`] and
  corresponding environment variable `BOOST_TEST_LOGGER` for more details.
* loggers are now able to indicate their default output stream and log level.

[h4 Boost.Test v3.2 / boost 1.61]

[h5 New features]
* now datasets support any [link boost_test.tests_organization.test_cases.test_case_generation.datasets arity], using the
  variadic template support of the compiler.
* now datasets support fixtures through `BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE_F`, see
  [link boost_test.tests_organization.test_cases.test_case_generation.datasets here] for more details
* now datasets honors move semantics of the types used for samples

[h5 Bugfixes and feature requests]
# [ticket 6767] Use of namespace qualifier with floating point exception functions breaks if they are macros
# [ticket 8905] `boost/test/impl/debug.ipp`: Ignores return value from `WaitForSingleObject`
# [ticket 9443] Runtime parameter Random seed for random order of test cases not respected correctly
# [ticket 11854] Add fixture support in `BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE`
# [ticket 11887] `BOOST_TEST(3u == (std::max)(0u, 3u))` fails
# [ticket 11889] `BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE` fails to compile for 4D and higher dimensional grids
# [ticket 11983] Boost Test XML Report contains unescaped XML characters

[h4 Boost.Test v3.1 / boost 1.60]

[h5 New major features]
* improved API for datasets
  * it is now possible to use initializer lists
  * the use of `make` as top left dataset is not necessary anymore
* improved command line interface
  * clearer help commands
  * now proposes closest matching command in case of ambiguity
  * reports invalid or ambiguous parameters: this might break existing calls when user defined commands are
    provided to the test module. The following calling convention should be adopted:
    * if the test module uses user supplied commands, those should be passed after an empty token `--`
    * all boost.test related commands should be passed before `--`, if any

    Example:
    the call
    ``
    test_module --user-arg1=xy --log_level=test_suite
    ``
    should be rewritten to
    ``
    test_module --log_level=test_suite -- --user-arg1=xy
    ``

[h4 Boost.Test v3 / boost 1.59]

[h5 New major features]

* __BOOST_TEST__ generic assertion
* [link boost_test.tests_organization.test_cases.test_case_generation data driven test cases]: supersedes the parametric test case (unary test cases)
* test units [link boost_test.tests_organization.decorators attributes], that allow finer control over test units property and behavior
* logical grouping of the test units using [link boost_test.tests_organization.tests_grouping labels]
* support for declaring [link boost_test.tests_organization.tests_dependencies dependencies] over test cases
* attributes for [link boost_test.tests_organization.enabling enabling or disabling] test execution based on static, compile-time or runtime rules
* extended [link boost_test.runtime_config.test_unit_filtering unit test filtering] from the command line (negation, labels, ...)
* color output with [link boost_test.utf_reference.rt_param_reference.color_output `color_output`]
* test bed listing with [link boost_test.utf_reference.rt_param_reference.list_content `list_content`]
* rewritten documentation using quickbook

[/* now having a more accurate timing (see [ticket 7397]) for the tests. Old format is still available through the command line option __param_deprecated_timer_format__
  in case you experience problems with the new output. ]
