At the start of this new year we are happy to present the third Update to the SuperTest Rembrandt Release.  For this update we have focused on extending the SuperTest suite with C++11 language conformance testing. We are quite proud of this considering the magnitude of the new features covered and the complexity of the C++ language. The new C++11 suite contains 324 new hand-written test-files containing a total of 1885 individual tests.

Significant attention was placed on the verification of ADL, Argument Dependent Lookup. ADL was much discussed in the C++ community because, although ADL was in the previous standards, it was not rigorously defined. This has changed in C++11, allowing us to now subject it to thorough testing.

The following is the specific list of language features that are tested by the C++11 suite in addition to ADL. The Nnnnn notes (below) refer to design papers by the C++ committee. They can be found through the index at:
