Revision history for Perl extension Test::Simple 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. 0.44 Thu Apr 25 00:27:27 EDT 2002 - 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) 0.43 Thu Apr 11 22:55:23 EDT 2002 - 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. 0.42 Wed Mar 6 15:00:24 EST 2002 - 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. 0.41 Mon Dec 17 22:45:20 EST 2001 * chromatic added diag() - Internal eval()'s sometimes interfering with $@ and $!. Fixed. 0.40 Fri Dec 14 15:41:39 EST 2001 * isa_ok() now accepts unblessed references gracefully - Nick Clark found a bug with like() and a regex with % in it. - 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 some docs about embedding and extending Test::More * Added Test::More->builder * Added cmp_ok() * Added todo_skip() * Added unlike() - Piers pointed out that sometimes people override isa(). isa_ok() now accounts for that. 0.36 Thu Nov 29 14:07:39 EST 2001 - Matthias Urlichs found that intermixed prints to STDOUT and test output came out in the wrong order when piped. 0.35 Tue Nov 27 19:57:03 EST 2001 - Little glitch in the test suite. No actual bug. 0.34 Tue Nov 27 15:43:56 EST 2001 * **API CHANGE** Empty string no longer matches undef in is() and isnt(). * Added isnt_eq and isnt_num to Test::Builder. 0.33 Mon Oct 22 21:05:47 EDT 2001 * 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. 0.32 Tue Oct 16 16:52:02 EDT 2001 * 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) 0.31 Mon Oct 8 19:24:53 EDT 2001 * Added an import option to Test::More * Added no_ending and no_header options to Test::Builder (Thanks to Dave Rolsky for giving this a swift kick in the ass) * Added is_deeply(). Display of scalar refs not quite 100% (Thanks to Stas Bekman for Apache::TestUtil idea thievery) - Fixed a minor warning with skip() (Thanks to Wolfgang Weisselberg for finding this one) 0.30 Thu Sep 27 22:10:04 EDT 2001 * 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. 0.20 *UNRELEASED* 0.19 Tue Sep 18 17:48:32 EDT 2001 * 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. 0.18 Wed Sep 5 20:35:24 EDT 2001 * ***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 0.17 Wed Aug 29 20:16:28 EDT 2001 * Added can_ok() and isa_ok() to Test::More 0.16 Tue Aug 28 19:52:11 EDT 2001 * vmsperl foiled my sensisble exit codes.
