004caa16 30.64_03 Sun Nov 5 13:09:55 EST 2006
4 - Tests will no longer warn when run against an alpha version of
5 Test::Harness [rt.cpan.org #20501]
6 - Now testing our POD and POD coverage.
7 - Added a LICENSE field.
8 - Removed warning from the docs about mixing numbered and unnumbered
9 tests. There's nothing wrong with that. [rt.cpan.org 21358]
10 - Change doc examples to talk about $got and $expected rather than
11 $this and $that to correspond better to the diagnostic output
12 [rt.cpan.org 2655]
13
b7f9bbeb 140.64_02 Sat Sep 9 12:16:56 EDT 2006
15 - Last release broke Perls earlier than 5.8.
16
170.64_01 Mon Sep 4 04:40:42 EDT 2006
18 - Small improvement to the docs to avoid user confusion over
19 "use Test::More tests => $num_tests" (Thanks Eric Wilhelm)
20 - Minor fix for a test failure in is_deeply_fail for some Windows
21 users. Not a real bug. [rt.cpan.org 21310]
22 - _print_diag() accidentally leaked into the public documentation.
23 It is a private method.
004caa16 24 * Added Test::Builder->carp() and croak()
b7f9bbeb 25 * Made most of the error messages report in the caller's context.
26 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
27 * Made the failure diagnostic message file and line reporting portion
28 match Perl's for easier integration with Perl aware editors.
29 (so its "at $file line $line_num." now)
30 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
31 * 5.8.0 threads are no longer supported. There's too many bugs.
32
1be77ff7 330.64 Sun Jul 16 02:47:29 PDT 2006
34 * 0.63's change to test_fail() broke backwards compatibility. They
35 have been removed for the time being. test_pass() went with it.
36 This is [rt.cpan.org 11317] and [rt.cpan.org 11319].
37 - skip() will now warn if you get the args backwards.
38
68938d83 390.63 Sun Jul 9 02:36:36 PDT 2006
40 * Fixed can_ok() to gracefully handle no class name.
41 Submitted by "Pete Krawczyk" <perl@bsod.net>
42 Implemented by "Richard Foley" <richard.foley@rfi.net>
43 [rt.cpan.org 15654]
44 * Added test_pass() to Test::Builder::Tester rather than having to
45 call test_out("ok 1 - foo"). <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11317]
46 * test_fail() now accepts a test diagnostic rather than having to
47 call test_out() separately. <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11319]
48 - Changed Test::Builder::Tester docs to show best practice using
49 test_fail() and test_pass().
50 - isnt_num() doc example wrongly showed is_num(). <chromatic@wgz.org>
51 - Fixed a minor typo in the BAIL_OUT() docs. <Jeff Deifik>
52 - Removed the LICENSE field from the Makefile.PL as the release of
53 MakeMaker with that feature has been delayed.
54
845d7e37 550.62 Sat Oct 8 01:25:03 PDT 2005
68938d83 56 * Absorbed Test::Builder::Tester. The last release broke it because its
845d7e37 57 screen scraping Test::More and the failure output changed. By
58 distributing them together we ensure TBT won't break again.
59 * Test::Builder->BAILOUT() was missing.
60 - is_deeply() can now handle function and code refs in a very limited
61 way. It simply looks to see if they have the same referent.
62 [rt.cpan.org 14746]
63
b1ddf169 640.61 Fri Sep 23 23:26:05 PDT 2005
65 - create.t was trying to read from a file before it had been closed
66 (and thus the changes may not have yet been written).
67 * is_deeply() would call stringification methods on non-object strings
68 which happened to be the name of a string overloaded class.
69 [rt.cpan.org 14675]
70
710.60_02 Tue Aug 9 00:27:41 PDT 2005
72 * Added Test::Builder::Module.
73 - Changed Test::More and Test::Simple to use Test::Builder::Module
74 - Minor Win32 testing nit in fail-more.t
75 * Added no_diag() method to Test::Builder and changed Test::More's
76 no_diag internals to use that. [rt.cpan.org 8655]
77 * Deprecated no_diag() as an option to "use Test::More". Call the
78 Test::Builder method instead.
79
800.60_01 Sun Jul 3 18:11:58 PDT 2005
81 - Moved the docs around a little to better group all the testing
82 functions together. [rt.cpan.org 8388]
83 * Added a BAIL_OUT() function to Test::More [rt.cpan.org 8381]
84 - Changed Test::Builder->BAILOUT to BAIL_OUT to match other method's
85 naming conventions. BAILOUT remains but is deprecated.
86 * Changed the standard failure diagnostics to include the test name.
87 [rt.cpan.org 12490]
88 - is_deeply() was broken for overloaded objects in the top level in
89 0.59_01. [rt.cpan.org 13506]
90 - String overloaded objects without an 'eq' or '==' method are now
91 handled in cmp_ok() and is().
92 - cmp_ok() will now treat overloaded objects as numbers if the comparison
93 operator is numeric. [rt.cpan.org 13156]
94 - cmp_ok(), like() and unlike will now throw uninit warnings if their
95 arguments are undefined. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
96 - cmp_ok() will now throw warnings as if the comparison were run
97 normally, for example cmp_ok(2, '==', 'foo') will warn about 'foo'
98 not being numeric. Previously all warnings in the comparison were
99 supressed. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
100 - Tests will now report *both* the number of tests failed and if the
101 wrong number of tests were run. Previously if tests failed and the
102 wrong number were run it would only report the latter.
103 [rt.cpan.org 13494]
104 - Missing or extra tests are not considered failures for the purposes
105 of calculating the exit code. Should there be no failures but the
106 wrong number of tests the exit code will be 254.
107 - Avoiding an unbalanced sort in eq_set() [bugs.perl.org 36354]
108 - Documenting that eq_set() doesn't deal well with refs.
109 - Clarified how is_deeply() compares a bit.
110 * Once again working on 5.4.5.
111
5143c659 1120.60 Tue May 3 14:20:34 PDT 2005
113
1140.59_01 Tue Apr 26 21:51:12 PDT 2005
115 * Test::Builder now has a create() method which allows you to create
116 a brand spanking new Test::Builder object.
117 * require_ok() was not working for single letter module names.
118 * is_deeply() and eq_* now work with circular scalar references
119 (Thanks Fergal)
120 * Use of eq_* now officially discouraged.
121 - Removed eq_* from the SYNOPSIS.
122 - is_deeply(undef, $not_undef); now works. [rt.cpan.org 9441]
123 - is_deeply() was mistakenly interpeting the same reference used twice
124 in a data structure as being circular causing failures.
125 [rt.cpan.org 11623]
126 - Loading Test::Builder but not using it would interfere with the
127 exit code if the code exited. [rt.cpan.org 12310]
128 - is_deeply() diagnostics now disambiguate between stringified references
129 and references. [rt.cpan.org 8865]
130 - Files opened by the output methods are now autoflushed.
131 - todo() now honors $Level when looking for $TODO.
132
0257f296 1330.54 Wed Dec 15 04:18:43 EST 2004
134 * $how_many is optional for skip() and todo_skip(). Thanks to
135 Devel::Cover for pointing this out.
136 - Removed a user defined function called err() in the tests to placate
137 users of older versions of the dor patch before err() was weakend.
138 [rt.cpan.org 8734]
139
1400.53_01 Sat Dec 11 19:02:18 EST 2004
141 - current_test() can now be set backward.
142 - *output() methods now handle tied handles and *FOO{IO} properly.
143 - maybe_regex() now handles undef gracefully.
144 - maybe_regex() now handles 'm,foo,' style regexes.
145 - sort_bug.t wasn't checking for threads properly. Would fail on
146 5.6 that had ithreads compiled in. [rt.cpan.org 8765]
147
7483b81c 1480.53 Mon Nov 29 04:43:24 EST 2004
149 - Apparently its possible to have Module::Signature installed without
150 it being functional. Fixed the signature test to account for this.
151 (not a real bug)
152
1530.52 Sun Nov 28 21:41:03 EST 2004
154 - plan() now better checks that the given plan is valid.
155 [rt.cpan.org 2597]
156
1570.51_02 Sat Nov 27 01:25:25 EST 2004
158 * is_deeply() and all the eq_* functions now handle circular data
159 structures. [rt.cpan.org 7289]
160 * require_ok() now handles filepaths in addition to modules.
161 - Clarifying Test::More's position on overloaded objects
162 - Fixed a bug introduced in 0.51_01 causing is_deeply() to pierce
163 overloaded objects.
164 - Mentioning rt.cpan.org for reporting bugs.
165
1660.51_01 Fri Nov 26 02:59:30 EST 2004
167 - plan() was accidentally exporting functions [rt.cpan.org 8385]
168 * diag @msgs would insert # between arguments. [rt.cpan.org 8392]
169 * eq_set() could cause problems under threads due to a weird sort bug
170 [rt.cpan.org 6782]
171 * undef no longer equals '' in is_deeply() [rt.cpan.org 6837]
172 * is_deeply() would sometimes compare references as strings.
173 [rt.cpan.org 7031]
174 - eq_array() and eq_hash() could hold onto references if they failed
175 keeping them in memory and preventing DESTROY. [rt.cpan.org 7032]
176 * is_deeply() could confuse [] with a non-existing value
177 [rt.cpan.org 7030]
178 - is_deeply() diagnostics a little off when scalar refs were inside
179 an array or hash ref [rt.cpan.org 7033]
180 - Thanks to Fergal Daly for ferretting out all these long standing
181 is_deeply and eq_* bugs.
182
1830.51 Tue Nov 23 04:51:12 EST 2004
184 - Fixed bug in fail_one.t on Windows (not a real bug).
185 - TODO reasons as overloaded objects now won't blow up under threads.
186 [Autrijus Tang]
187 - skip() in 0.50 tickled yet another bug in threads::shared. Hacked
188 around it.
189
30e302f8 1900.50 Sat Nov 20 00:28:44 EST 2004
7483b81c 191 - Fixed bug in fail-more test on Windows (not a real bug).
30e302f8 192 [rt.cpan.org 8022]

201
2020.48_02 Mon Jul 19 02:07:23 EDT 2004
203 * Overloaded objects as names now won't blow up under threads
204 [rt.cpan.org 4218 and 4232]
205 * Overloaded objects which stringify to undef used as test names
206 now won't cause internal uninit warnings. [rt.cpan.org 4232]
207 * Failure diagnostics now come out on their own line when run in
208 Test::Harness.
209 - eq_set() sometimes wasn't giving the right results if nested refs
210 were involved [rt.cpan.org 3747]
211 - isnt() giving wrong diagnostics and warning if given any undefs.
212 * Give unlike() the right prototype [rt.cpan.org 4944]

217 - Removed dependency on File::Spec.
218 - Fixing the grammar of diagnostic outputs when only a single test

223 - Mention Test::Class in Test::More's SEE ALSO
224 * use_ok() now DWIM for version checks

228 * Drew Taylor added a 'no_diag' option to Test::More to switch
229 off all diag() statements.
230 * Test::Builder/More no longer automatically loads threads.pm

240 relying on object destruction.
241 - Added example of calculating the number of tests to Test::Tutorial
242 - Peter Scott made the ending logic not fire on child processes when
243 forking.

281
6686786d 2820.42 Wed Mar 6 15:00:24 EST 2002
283 - Setting Test::Builder->current_test() now works (see what happens
284 when you forget to test things?)

4370.02 Fri Mar 30 05:12:14 BST 2001 *UNRELEASED*
438 - exit codes tested
439 * exit code on abnormal exit changed to 255 (thanks to Tim Bunce for
440 pointing out that Unix can't do negative exit codes)
441 - abnormal exits now better caught.
442 - No longer using Test.pm to test this, but still minimum of 5.005
443 due to needing $^S.
