I've been discussing with Martin the merits of moving to modern unit
testing frameworks. We both have some experience of googletest
(https://code.google.com/p/googletest/) and Martin has experience with
PyTest (http://pytest.org/). Some motivations for considering a switch
are (a) simpler code for C++ and Python tests (particularly for C++);
and (b) scope to speed-up by running tests in parallel. Both googletest
and PyTest are on the buildbots and are used by uflacs.
I don't think switching is pressing, but it would be helpful to hear if
there are any strong views either way.
