I don't really see the advantage of Catch over http://unittest-cpp.sourceforge.net/ http://unittest-cpp.sourceforge.net/ UnitTest++ was written by Noel Llopis,

  I'm in the same boat (having used UnitTest++ for years) and I wonder the same, though I do see some points already: - adding a custom main() to unittest++ was pretty messy - unittest++ is not single-header, meaning you have to recompile all flavours everytime you switch toolsets - that nested sections stuff looks good and readable, so even though it might be doable with unittest++, this really attracts me more That being said, I would like to hear from the author or anyone else who can compare them. But likely I'm going to use this for the next project just to check it out.

  I'm a big fan of UnitTest++, but one thing that would tempt me about Catch is the single header file.

  I use Catch over UnitTest++ because I found it first and it was dead simple to get started with. We don't do unit-testing as part of our official development process where I work, so I was looking for something that I could quickly try out and get started with in my spare moments. I read about several frameworks and Catch seemed to fit the bill best. Looking over the UnitTest++ web site just now it appears to be nearly as easy as Catch, so if I had found it first I probably would have given it a try. For those not currently doing any unit testing who want to get a feel for what it is all about, I highly recommend Catch as a "my first unit testing framework."
