CxxTest

CxxTest is a unit testing framework for C++ that is similar in spirit to JUnit, CppUnit, and xUnit. CxxTest is easy to use because it does not require precompiling a CxxTest testing library, it employs no advanced features of C++ (e.g. RTTI) and it supports a very flexible form of test discovery.

I use CxxTest to develop unit tests for a complex software product. Very pleased with its ease of use, although the documentation could benefit from more examples of use, in my opinion.
