Dynamic boost test order in Teamcity

We are using TeamCity to develop a suite of C++ applications based on a shared reusable framework with boost test on a windows environment. The testplans take fairly long to execute (building and testing all libraries and applications in debug mode takes over an hour).



It would be nice if boost test could execute those tests first that have the greatest chance of failing (and then stop execution upon failure like described here). However the test execution order seems to be determined at compile time.



Is it possible to instruct boost test dynamically to execute certain tests first?

  • I'd just create a custom test script. You could even let it heuristically do the tests that failed last time first, based on previous test results.
