Public bug reported:

Following the official documentation at the Ubuntu developer gateway
https://developer.ubuntu.com/api/scopes/cpp/sdk-15.04.1 I tried to
create a scope fixture to use in my test cases using the
unity::scopes::testing::TypedScopeFixture<> template to wrap my Scope
class.

The unit tests always fail at runtime with an error similar to the following.
  [ RUN      ] ScopeFixture.surfacing_query
  /usr/include/unity-scopes-1.0/unity/scopes/testing/TypedScopeFixture.h:90: Failure
  Expected: scope->start(ScopeTraits<Scope>::name()) doesn't throw an exception.

Turns out the problem is that the TypedScopeFixture template class does
not call the required initialization functions in its constructor.  It's
not possible to work around this by driving from TypedScopeFixture
because the required initialization functions (for example,
TypedScopeFixtureHelper::set_scope_directory()) are private static
member functions in another class.  The only workaround is to include a
modified copy of TypedScopeFixture.h in my own project.

** Affects: unity-scopes-api (Ubuntu)
