Because I need unit tests for the xml parsing code, I've decided to halt that until I get them set up.
The reason I post here if both because these forums are depressingly silent, but also because unit tests are essential for any program and fortunately easy to write. So all programmers who aren't up for the more advanced (for lack of a better word) stuff, should look into helping out with the unit tests.
What if a unit test? It's basically a program that is designed to only test one class or so.
I'll be using the Boost test framework, because Boost is pretty common among coders and is already in use with the project. Read more about it here http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/li ... index.html
