Shouldn't it be based on the fracPrec value instead ?

I had a bit of a WTF moment, not understanding how the same double could
convert to two different fixed point values. Then I realized you're
using a std::map here, which doesn't support multiple items with the
same key.

What you need is a

		std::vector<std::pair<double, uint16_t>> testCases = {

(don't forget to include vector and utility instead of map). With that,
the test will fail.

As this patch has been merged already, could you send patches to fix
those issues ?
