We use CPPUnit in a production environment, and so far it has fulfilled
all our needs. I'm considering making a move to Boost.Test though as
this seems to be a lot more flexible, but I have no urgent reasons to do
so - CPPUnit is just fine for the moment.

Either CPPUnit or Boost.Test. If I were to choose now, I'd probably have
chosen Boost.Test.

I don't know anything about this :)

Certainly.
