I don't feel comfortable making a deep "vs." here once I didn't used
Boost.Test more than a few lines.
They seem pretty much equivalent in the number of features but personally
found googletest easier to learn/use.
You can try read the part relative to typed test (w/ templates) to see what
I mean and get some conclusions:
https://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/AdvancedGuide#Typed_Tests
Even though I have more time working with googletest and I could promptly
imagine uses for soci, I must agree there's no strong reasons for picking
it. But it's always cool bringing different experiences to the mix. :-)

> CATCH has the reduced number of features when compared to
either Boost.Test or googletest, the documentation is very limited and the
maintainer is still inclined to make breaking changes in the interface what
caused him to consider CATCH a "developer preview" (see the last lines in
https://github.com/philsquared/Catch/wiki).
Its only initial appeal I could see was the single include
file, but another point to Boost.Test for doing that too.
BTW, shoud we move this discussion to the soci-devel mail list?
