Consider using CATCH instead of googletest framework about astro-accelerate

[chrisjwilliams]

Why? What does it give you over and above googletest?

See: http://blog.coldflake.com/posts/Testing-C++-with-a-new-Catch/

It reduces the amount of setup needed and removes the needs for fixtures. It also supports a BDD style of testing and allows you to use C++ style comparisons in your assertions without needing to remember which of the ASSERT_* or EXPECT_* macros I need to use.

It also doesn't have the limitations in this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17961900/why-does-google-test-assert-false-not-work-in-methods-but-expect-false-does which makes writing good quality tests harder as you get pushed into using certain design patterns in your function call design.

Nice, definitely one to watch!
But its still pretty limited: no parametrised/typed testing or support for death tests.
