Just few points that come into my mind:
- better reporting for expected/got values
- better interaction for exceptions (e.g. expect/don't expect one)
- logging
- possibility to run stuff in subprocesses (which we don't use,
although I used it on something private)
- possibility to run only some of the tests, which greatly helps
debugging the failure of one
All those thigs at least help _me_ when debugging tests, and as such
they provide value to me.
Sure, all the above things can be done manually; what would be the
gain though, other basically rewriting oUnit?
Do you want to submit a patch to convert the assert tests to
oUnit then? I'll ACK it (assuming it's correct).
