I do like CPPUNIT. It has it's drawbacks... but there's not really any reason to use anything else. In particular Boost.Test has _many_ drawbacks (as Boost stuff often does)... mainly that it's just tough to work with. CPPUNIT is straightforward.... and does it's job well.
Here at INL I'm implementing more like "system" tests. We don't really have a lot to unit test... so I'm basically checking against analytic solutions then archiving those solutions and just ensuring that we keep getting ~ the same answer. Not the best... but it helps with large regressions. I'm using exodiff for this (which helps with the ~ part)... and it's all getting integrated with Trac and Bitten so that tests are automatically run after each commit.
