Is it possible to use BOOST_PARAM_TEST_CASE with automatic registration on boost::test?

Question

Is it possible to mix up the BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE and BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE_TEMPLATE macros with the BOOST_PARAM_TEST_CASE in any way? I\'m

Answer 1

I took Omnifarious' header file and modified it such that the parameter is passed to the constructor of the test fixture rather than to the test method. This requires the test fixture's constructor declaration to take a single argument with the parameter's type. I found this to be super handy--much thanks for the initial question and answer!
