Thu, Apr 18, 2013: Released Check 0.9.10
based on r743 (2013-04-18 11:27:03 +0200)
* Support 64bit int for __ck_assert_int. Patch from bug #3599471
* Add equivalent uint variants for __ck_assert_int. Patch from bug #3600433.
* Detect if the system has a C99 compliant version of the printf related
functions for check to use, and if not use an implementation provided by
check.
* Updated HACKING and release procedure in Makefile.am.
* Detect if the system has clock_gettime() available, and if not use an
implementation provided by check. clock_gettime() is used to measure
test durations. The implementation for OSX uses OSX specific system calls
to get the time. For all other systems, clock_gettime() does nothing.
* Updated documentation in check.h to reference new check API.
* Remove usage of deprecated fail(), fail_if(), and fail_unless() calls from
check's unit tests.
* Fix implementation of putenv in check's libcompat for systems that do not
provide it.
* Fix implementation of unsettenv in check's libcompat for systems that do
not provide it.
* Improvements to the new Check API: new comparison functions for pointers:
ck_assert_ptr_(eq|ne).
* Test timeouts can now be in nanosecond precision. The tcase_set_timeout
call, and CK_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT and CK_TIMEOUT_MULTIPLIER environment
variables now can accept floating point arguments.
* Cleanup compile warnings, patch #3579199 on SF.
* Renamed Check's internal list functions to start with check_, patch #3448601 on SF.
Mon, Oct 22, 2012: Released Check 0.9.9
based on r637 (2012-10-22 13:54:14 +0200)
* Measure test duration and print in XML output.
Feature request #3521371 on SF, but reimplemented.
* Added contrib/XML_for_JUnit.xsl from feature request #3521371 on SF.
* Added support for setting log files via environment variables.
Patch #3576713 on SF.
* Added better pkg-config and subunit support, patch #3417041 on SF.
* Make tests/test_vars.in bourne shell compatible, bug #3472578 on SF.
* Added ck_ prefix to mutex_lock variable, to avoid name clash on Solaris.
Solves bug #3472574 on SF.
* In autoconf, request system extensions to generate 64-bit safe code,
solution from patch #2803433 on SF.
* Fix for mutex deadlock when killing threads, patch #3564640 on SF.
* Make XML output well-formed, solution from patch #3575642 on SF.
Solves bug #3485651 also.
* Fix buggy duration calculation, bug #3575451 on SF.
* A more complete CMake / MSVC patch for those interested in pursuing
Windows development with Check and Visual Studio. See
patches/mloskot.windows.patch.
* Added instructions for improving the speed and output of `make
check' when using Automake. See contrib/improved_make_check/.
* Added a chapter in the documentation for selective running of tests.
* Changed how the message pipe is read. Before, the whole file was copied to
RAM with realloc, giving problems with huge allocations for repetetive
tests, the problem was visible for a specific GStreamer test case.
* Improvements to the new Check API: documentation, macros that allow
multiple evaluation, unit tests, and new
ck_assert_(str|int)_(lt|le|gt|ge) comparison functions.
* Made the new Check API primary and use it to define macros from old Check API
* Added checkmk, a tool for reducing "boilerplate coding" when writing
unit tests with check.
* Added xslt link to xml output, added display of iteration field into xslt
stylesheet and moved it to directory accessible from web page root
* Added longjmp to fail function to ensure that no code will be executed in test
function after failed assertion
* Fix dead assignments and several possible NULL pointer dereferences
changes:
* Updated manual and converted from DocBook to Texinfo
* Added pkg-config support
* Added Libtool support
* Updated GNU Build System
-bugfixes
* Added a new kind of test, looping tests
* Added possibility to turn off timeout tests
Fri, Sep 3, 2004: Released Check 0.9.1
Updated tutorial with new features.
Added support for XML output of the test results, courtesy of Frederic Peters.
Fixed setup bug from forum, failure in setup did not abort test in nofork mode.
Applied varargs patch (#933411) and added test cases.
Applied fail_if (#709167) patch.
Applied 'newbies' patch #995028 for autoconf doc.
Applied doc patch #995028 from Bill Barnard.
Fixed portability problems tests by changing == to =.
Changed copyright according to bug report.
Applied patch 796705. Replacing _exit with exit.
Applied patch for bug 793671.
Mon, May 17, 2004: Released Check 0.9.0
Run fixture teardowns in reverse order to setup
Plugged some memory leaks.
Added test name to log outputs.
Applied patch (802160) for distcheck bug (579604).
Fixed log printouts for nofork mode.
Updated documentation and converted to DocBook.
Added a new print mode, CK_ENV, that gets the print mode from the
environment variable CK_VERBOSITY.
Made tcase_free and suite_free static. This may break existing test
programs. Everything is now freed when srunner_free is called.
