When using the library or header-only version of Boost.Test, many assertion macros are provided in three levels that determine the behavior when the assertion fails and how a failed assertion interacts with the test runner.

The WARN level issues a diagnostic message, but the
test case is not considered to have failed and continues executing. The
CHECK level issues a message to the test log on failure,
marks the test case as failed and continues executing. The REQUIRE
level issues a message to the test log on failure, marks the test case
as failed and halts execution of the test case.
