Usually I associate sth named assert() that it does an ungraceful exit. Maybe __test() or __check()?

Nitpick: sizeof(msg)

Not sure what exactly you are trying to accomplish here in this function?
Why don't you use vfprintf() and leave this hackery aside?

va_list vl;

va_start(vl, fmt);
fprintf(stderr, "(%s:%d) ", filename, line);
vfprintf(stderr, fmt, vl);
va_end(vl);

Here you don't need to inint rc, since you overwrite immediately.

Also replace 0 with whatever you have defined for TEST_PASS or TEST_FAIL,
otherwise misleading.

No whitespace here.

I have no strong opinion here, but do we need to make this as an enum and then do
bit-operations on it?

Nitpick:

If would be nice if you move run_all_tests() either here below this one or the other way
around, so that function decls are not distributed over the file, but together.

perror() could be removed from here and put into fprintf() by using f.e. %s + strerror(errno).

In cases where you make use of this macro, it's always like ...

<function>
{
	pass_if(<cond>, out, ret);
[...]
out:
	return ret;
}

Not sure if this simplifies or rather obfuscates things. Maybe other people
like it, not sure ...

Ditto.

Why do you have two blank lines here?

> +	void *testcases;

It seems you like having void* pointers, right? This is very unintuitive here (and
weird that you iterate with a char* pointer over it in function run_all_tests())
and at least needs some comments. Otherwise people will have to look into your
example to get to know what you mean.

Also, what is the difference between testcases and private? I have not seen that
you use private anywhere.

> +	int testcase_size;

Nitpick (but that depends if you keep void*): size_t len;

> +	int testcase_count;

Nitpick (ditto): unsigned int num_cases;

bool abort_on_fail;

Also no blank lines at the end of a file!

Ok, for now I leave the other patches aside, maybe you have some comments to the
review, a new version, or wait a while for others to give feedback as well.

Thanks and cheers,

Daniel
