0.62 Sat Oct 8 01:25:03 PDT 2005
* Aborbed Test::Builder::Tester. The last release broke it because its
screen scraping Test::More and the failure output changed. By
distributing them together we ensure TBT won't break again.
* Test::Builder->BAILOUT() was missing.
- is_deeply() can now handle function and code refs in a very limited
way. It simply looks to see if they have the same referent.
[rt.cpan.org 14746]
0.61 Fri Sep 23 23:26:05 PDT 2005
- create.t was trying to read from a file before it had been closed
(and thus the changes may not have yet been written).
* is_deeply() would call stringification methods on non-object strings
which happened to be the name of a string overloaded class.
[rt.cpan.org 14675]
0.60_02 Tue Aug 9 00:27:41 PDT 2005
* Added Test::Builder::Module.
- Changed Test::More and Test::Simple to use Test::Builder::Module
- Minor Win32 testing nit in fail-more.t
* Added no_diag() method to Test::Builder and changed Test::More's
no_diag internals to use that. [rt.cpan.org 8655]
* Deprecated no_diag() as an option to "use Test::More". Call the
Test::Builder method instead.
0.60_01 Sun Jul 3 18:11:58 PDT 2005
- Moved the docs around a little to better group all the testing
functions together. [rt.cpan.org 8388]
* Added a BAIL_OUT() function to Test::More [rt.cpan.org 8381]
- Changed Test::Builder->BAILOUT to BAIL_OUT to match other method's
naming conventions. BAILOUT remains but is deprecated.
* Changed the standard failure diagnostics to include the test name.
[rt.cpan.org 12490]
- is_deeply() was broken for overloaded objects in the top level in
0.59_01. [rt.cpan.org 13506]
- String overloaded objects without an 'eq' or '==' method are now
handled in cmp_ok() and is().
- cmp_ok() will now treat overloaded objects as numbers if the comparison
operator is numeric. [rt.cpan.org 13156]
- cmp_ok(), like() and unlike will now throw uninit warnings if their
arguments are undefined. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
- cmp_ok() will now throw warnings as if the comparison were run
normally, for example cmp_ok(2, '==', 'foo') will warn about 'foo'
not being numeric. Previously all warnings in the comparison were
supressed. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
- Tests will now report *both* the number of tests failed and if the
wrong number of tests were run. Previously if tests failed and the
wrong number were run it would only report the latter.
[rt.cpan.org 13494]
- Missing or extra tests are not considered failures for the purposes
of calculating the exit code. Should there be no failures but the
wrong number of tests the exit code will be 254.
- Avoiding an unbalanced sort in eq_set() [bugs.perl.org 36354]
- Documenting that eq_set() doesn't deal well with refs.
- Clarified how is_deeply() compares a bit.
* Once again working on 5.4.5.
0.60 Tue May 3 14:20:34 PDT 2005
0.59_01 Tue Apr 26 21:51:12 PDT 2005
* Test::Builder now has a create() method which allows you to create
a brand spanking new Test::Builder object.
* require_ok() was not working for single letter module names.
* is_deeply() and eq_* now work with circular scalar references
(Thanks Fergal)
* Use of eq_* now officially discouraged.
- Removed eq_* from the SYNOPSIS.
- is_deeply(undef, $not_undef); now works. [rt.cpan.org 9441]
- is_deeply() was mistakenly interpeting the same reference used twice
in a data structure as being circular causing failures.
[rt.cpan.org 11623]
- Loading Test::Builder but not using it would interfere with the
exit code if the code exited. [rt.cpan.org 12310]
- is_deeply() diagnostics now disambiguate between stringified references
and references. [rt.cpan.org 8865]
- Files opened by the output methods are now autoflushed.
- todo() now honors $Level when looking for $TODO.
0.54 Wed Dec 15 04:18:43 EST 2004
* $how_many is optional for skip() and todo_skip(). Thanks to
Devel::Cover for pointing this out.
- Removed a user defined function called err() in the tests to placate
users of older versions of the dor patch before err() was weakend.
[rt.cpan.org 8734]
0.53_01 Sat Dec 11 19:02:18 EST 2004
- current_test() can now be set backward.
- *output() methods now handle tied handles and *FOO{IO} properly.
- maybe_regex() now handles undef gracefully.
- maybe_regex() now handles 'm,foo,' style regexes.
- sort_bug.t wasn't checking for threads properly. Would fail on
5.6 that had ithreads compiled in. [rt.cpan.org 8765]
0.53 Mon Nov 29 04:43:24 EST 2004
- Apparently its possible to have Module::Signature installed without
it being functional. Fixed the signature test to account for this.
(not a real bug)
0.52 Sun Nov 28 21:41:03 EST 2004
- plan() now better checks that the given plan is valid.
[rt.cpan.org 2597]
0.51_02 Sat Nov 27 01:25:25 EST 2004
* is_deeply() and all the eq_* functions now handle circular data
structures. [rt.cpan.org 7289]
* require_ok() now handles filepaths in addition to modules.
- Clarifying Test::More's position on overloaded objects
- Fixed a bug introduced in 0.51_01 causing is_deeply() to pierce
overloaded objects.
- Mentioning rt.cpan.org for reporting bugs.
0.51_01 Fri Nov 26 02:59:30 EST 2004
- plan() was accidentally exporting functions [rt.cpan.org 8385]
* diag @msgs would insert # between arguments. [rt.cpan.org 8392]
* eq_set() could cause problems under threads due to a weird sort bug
[rt.cpan.org 6782]
* undef no longer equals '' in is_deeply() [rt.cpan.org 6837]
* is_deeply() would sometimes compare references as strings.
[rt.cpan.org 7031]
- eq_array() and eq_hash() could hold onto references if they failed
keeping them in memory and preventing DESTROY. [rt.cpan.org 7032]
* is_deeply() could confuse [] with a non-existing value
[rt.cpan.org 7030]
- is_deeply() diagnostics a little off when scalar refs were inside
an array or hash ref [rt.cpan.org 7033]
- Thanks to Fergal Daly for ferretting out all these long standing
is_deeply and eq_* bugs.
0.51 Tue Nov 23 04:51:12 EST 2004
- Fixed bug in fail_one.t on Windows (not a real bug).
- TODO reasons as overloaded objects now won't blow up under threads.
[Autrijus Tang]
- skip() in 0.50 tickled yet another bug in threads::shared. Hacked
around it.
0.50 Sat Nov 20 00:28:44 EST 2004
- Fixed bug in fail-more test on Windows (not a real bug).
[rt.cpan.org 8022]
- Change from CVS to SVK. Hopefully this is the last time I move
version control systems.
- Again removing File::Spec dependency (came back in 0.48_02)
- Change from Aegis back to CVS
0.49 Thu Oct 14 21:58:50 EDT 2004
- t/harness_active.t would fail for frivolous reasons with older
MakeMakers (test bug) [thanks Bill Moseley for noticing]
0.48_02 Mon Jul 19 02:07:23 EDT 2004
* Overloaded objects as names now won't blow up under threads
[rt.cpan.org 4218 and 4232]
* Overloaded objects which stringify to undef used as test names
now won't cause internal uninit warnings. [rt.cpan.org 4232]
* Failure diagnostics now come out on their own line when run in
Test::Harness.
- eq_set() sometimes wasn't giving the right results if nested refs
were involved [rt.cpan.org 3747]
- isnt() giving wrong diagnostics and warning if given any undefs.
* Give unlike() the right prototype [rt.cpan.org 4944]
- Change from CVS to Aegis
- is_deeply() will now do some basic argument checks to guard against
accidentally passing in a whole array instead of its reference.
- Mentioning Test::Differences, Test::Deep and Bundle::Test.
- Removed dependency on File::Spec.
- Fixing the grammar of diagnostic outputs when only a single test
is run or failed (ie. "Looks like you failed 1 tests").
[Darren Chamberlain]
0.48_01 Mon Nov 11 02:36:43 EST 2002
- Mention Test::Class in Test::More's SEE ALSO
* use_ok() now DWIM for version checks
- More problems with ithreads fixed.
* Test::Harness upgrade no longer optional. It was causing too
many problems when the T::H upgrade didn't work.
* Drew Taylor added a 'no_diag' option to Test::More to switch
off all diag() statements.
* Test::Builder/More no longer automatically loads threads.pm
when threads are enabled. The user must now do this manually.
* Alex Francis added reset() reset the state of Test::Builder in
persistent environments.
- David Hand noted that Test::Builder/More exit code behavior was
not documented. Only Test::Simple.
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.
addresses PR pkg/28619 from H. Todd Fujinaka.
Test::Harness is included in perl>=5.8.3, and for that reason,
p5-Test-Harness has a CONFLICT on perl>=5.8.3 which was blocking many
packages from being installed.
- use buildlink2
Changes :
0.47 Mon Aug 26 03:54:22 PDT 2002
* Tatsuhiko Miyagawa noticed Test::Builder was accidentally storing
objects passed into test functions causing problems with tests
relying on object destruction.
- Added example of calculating the number of tests to Test::Tutorial
- Peter Scott made the ending logic not fire on child processes when
forking.
* Test::Builder is once again ithread safe.
0.46 Sat Jul 20 19:57:40 EDT 2002
- Noted eq_set() isn't really a set comparision.
- Test fix, exit codes are broken on MacPerl (bleadperl@16868)
- Make Test::Simple install itself into the core for >= 5.8
- Small fixes to Test::Tutorial and skip examples
* Added TB->has_plan() from Adrian Howard
- Clarified the meaning of 'actual_ok' from TB->details
* Added TB->details() from chromatic
- Neil Watkiss fixed a pre-5.8 test glitch with threads.t
* If the test died before a plan, it would exit with 0 [ID 20020716.013]
0.45 Wed Jun 19 18:41:12 EDT 2002
- Andy Lester made the SKIP & TODO docs a bit clearer.
- Explicitly disallowing double plans. (RT #553)
- Kicking up the minimum version of Test::Harness to one that's
fairly bug free.
- Made clear a common problem with use_ok and BEGIN blocks.
- Arthur Bergman made Test::Builder thread-safe.
Changes since p5-Test-Simple-0.43 :
- names containing newlines no longer produce confusing output
(from chromatic)
- chromatic provided a fix so can_ok() honors can() overrides.
- Nick Ing-Simmons suggested todo_skip() be a bit clearer about
the skipping part.
- Making plan() vomit if it gets something it doesn't understand.
- Tatsuhiko Miyagawa fixed use_ok() with pragmata on older perls.
- quieting diag(undef)
- change to my email address
Changes since p5-Test-Simple-0.42
- Adrian Howard added TB->maybe_regex()
- Adding Mark Fowler's suggestion to make diag() return
false.
- TB->current_test() still not working when no tests were run via
TB itself. Fixed by Dave Rolsky.
- Setting Test::Builder->current_test() now works (see what happens
when you forget to test things?)
- The change in is()'s undef/'' handling in 0.34 was an API change,
but I forgot to declare it as such.
- The apostrophilic jihad attacks! Philip Newtons patch for
grammar mistakes in the doc's.
- isa_ok() now accepts unblessed references gracefully
- exit.t was hanging on 5.005_03 VMS perl. Test now skipped.
- can_ok() would pass if no methods were given. Now fails.
- isnt() diagnostic output format changed
- Added Test::More->builder
- Added cmp_ok(), todo_skip(), unlike()
Changes :
- Empty string no longer matches undef in is() and isnt()
- Added isnt_eq and isnt_num to Test::Builder
- Little glitch in the test suite.
- fixed intermixed prints to STDOUT and test output came
out in the wrong order when piped
* It's now officially safe to redirect STDOUT and STDERR without
affecting test output.
- License and POD cleanup by Autrijus Tang
- Synched up Test::Tutorial with the wiki version
- Minor VMS test nit.
* Finally added a seperate plan() function
* Adding a name field to isa_ok()
(Requested by Dave Rolsky)
- Test::More was using Carp.pm, causing the occasional false positive.
(Reported by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa)
* Added Test::Builder
(Thanks muchly to chromatic for getting this off the ground!)
* Diagnostics are back to using STDERR *unless* it's from a todo
test. Those go to STDOUT.
- Fixed it so nothing is printed if a test is run with a -c flag.
Handy when a test is being deparsed with B::Deparse.
* Test::Simple and Test::More no longer print their diagnostics
to STDERR. It instead goes to STDOUT.
* TODO tests which fail now print full failure diagnostics.
- Minor bug in ok()'s test name diagnostics made it think a blank
name was a number.
- ok() less draconian about test names
- Added temporary special case for Parrot::Test
- Now requiring File::Spec for our tests.
* ***API CHANGE*** can_ok() only counts as one test
- can_ok() has better diagnostics
- Minor POD fixes from mjd
- adjusting the internal layout to make it easier to put it into
the core
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
This is an extremely simple, extremely basic module for writing tests
suitable for CPAN modules and other pursuits. If you wish to do more
complicated testing, use the Test::More module (a drop-in replacement
for this one).
