82d700dc 50.85_01 Thu Oct 23 18:57:38 PDT 2008
6 New Features
7 * cmp_ok() now displays the error if the comparison throws one.
8 For example, broken overloaded objects.
9
10 Bug Fixes
11 * cmp_ok() no longer stringifies or numifies its arguments before comparing.
12 This makes cmp_ok() properly test overloaded ops.
13 [rt.cpan.org 24186] [code.google.com 16]
14 * diag() properly escapes blank lines.
15
16 Feature Changes
17 * cmp_ok() now reports warnings and errors as coming from inside cmp_ok,
18 as well as reporting the caller's file and line. This let's the user
19 know where cmp_ok() was called from while reminding them that it is
20 being run in a different context.
21
22 Other
23 * Dependency on ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.27 only on Windows otherwise the
24 nested tests won't run.

28 Other
29 * 0.82 accidentally shipped with experimental Mouse dependency.
30
31
320.82 Tue Oct 14 23:06:56 EDT 2008
33 Bug Fixes
34 - 0.81_01 broke $TODO such that $TODO = '' was considered todo.
35
36
370.81_02 Tue Sep 9 04:35:40 PDT 2008
38 New Features
39 * Test::Builder->reset_outputs() to reset all the output methods back to
40 their defaults.
41
42 Bug Fixes
43 - Fixed the file and line number reported by like when it gets a bad
44 regex.
45
46 Features Changed
47 - Now preserves the tests' exit code if it exits abnormally, rather than
48 setting it to 255.
49 - Changed the "Looks like your test died" message to
50 "Looks like your test exited with $exit_code"
51 - no_plan now only warns if given an argument. There were a lot of people
52 doing that, and it's a sensible mistake. [test-more.googlecode.com 13]
53
54
550.81_01 Sat Sep 6 15:13:50 PDT 2008
56 New Features
57 * Adam Kennedy bribed me to add new_ok(). The price was one DEFCON license key.
58 [rt.cpan.org 8891]
59 * TODO tests can now start and end with 'todo_start' and 'todo_end'
60 Test::Builder methods. [rt.cpan.org 38018]
61 * Added Test::Builder->in_todo() for a safe way to check if a test is inside a
62 TODO block. This allows TODO tests with no reason.
63 * Added note() and explain() to both Test::More and Test::Builder.
64 [rt.cpan.org 14764] [test-more.googlecode.com 3]
65
66 Features Changed
67 * Changed the message for extra tests run to show the number of tests run rather than
68 the number extra to avoid the user having to do mental math.
69 [rt.cpan.org 7022]
70
71 Bug fixes
72 - using a relative path to perl broke tests [rt.cpan.org 34050]
73 - use_ok() broke $SIG{__DIE__} in the used module [rt.cpan.org 34065]
74 - diagnostics for isnt() were confusing on failure [rt.cpan.org 33642]
75 - warnings when MakeMaker's version contained _ [rt.cpan.org 33626]
76 - add explicit test that non-integer plans die correctly [rt.cpan.org 28836]
77 (Thanks to Hans Dieter Pearcey [confound] for fixing the above)
78 - die if no_plan is given an argument [rt.cpan.org 27429]
79
80
bdff39c7 810.80 Sun Apr 6 17:25:01 CEST 2008
82 Test fixes
83 - Completely disable the utf8 test. It was causing perl to panic on some OS's.
84
85
860.79_01 Wed Feb 27 03:04:54 PST 2008
87 Bug fixes
88 - Let's try the IO layer copying again, this time with the test
89 fixed for 5.10.
90
91
920.78 Wed Feb 27 01:59:09 PST 2008
93 Bug fixes
94 * Whoops, the version of Test::Builder::Tester got moved backwards.
95
96
970.77 Wed Feb 27 01:55:55 PST 2008
98 Bug fixes
99 - "use Test::Builder::Module" no longer sets exported_to() or does
100 any other importing.
101 - Fix the $TODO finding code so it can find $TODO without the benefit
102 of exported_to(), which is often wrong.
103 - Turn off the filehandle locale stuff for the moment, there's a
104 problem on 5.10. We'll try it again next release.
105
106 Doc improvements
107 - Improve the Test::Builder SYNOPSIS to use Test::Builder::Module
108 rather than write it's own import().
109
110
1110.76_02 Sun Feb 24 13:12:55 PST 2008
112 Bug fixes
113 * The default test output filehandles will NOT use utf8.
114 They will now copy the IO layers from STDOUT and STDERR.
115 This means if :utf8 is on then it will honor it and not
116 warn about wide characters.
117
118
1190.76_01 Sat Feb 23 20:44:32 PST 2008
120 Bug fixes
121 * Test::Builder no longer uses a __DIE__ handler. This resolves a number
122 of problems with exit codes being swallowed or other module's handlers
123 being interfered with. [rt.cpan.org 25294]
124 - Allow maybe_regex() to detect blessed regexes. [bleadperl @32880]
125 - The default test output filehandles will now use utf8.
126 [rt.cpan.org 21091]
127
128 Test fixes
129 - Remove the signature test. Adds no security and just generates
130 failures.
131
132
1330.75 Sat Feb 23 19:03:38 PST 2008
134 Incompatibilities
135 * The minimum version is now 5.6.0.
136
137 Bug fixes
138 - Turns out require_ok() had the same bug as use_ok() in a BEGIN block.
139 - ok() was not honoring exported_to() when looking for $TODO as it
140 should be.
141
142 Test fixes
143 * is_deeply_with_threads.t will not run unless AUTHOR_TESTING is set.
144 This is because it tickles intermittent threading bugs in many perls
145 and causes a lot of bug reports about which I can do nothing.
146
147 Misc
148 - Ran through perlcritic and did some cleaning.
149
00881caa 1500.74 Thu Nov 29 15:39:57 PST 2007
151 Misc
152 - Add abstract and author to the meta information.
153
1540.73_01 Mon Oct 15 20:35:15 EDT 2007
155 Bug fixes
156 * Put the use_ok() fix from 0.71 back.
157
4d845874 1580.72 Wed Sep 19 20:08:07 PDT 2007
159 Bug unfixes
160 * The BEGIN { use_ok } fix for [rt.cpan.org 28345] revealed a small pile of
00881caa 161 mistakes in CPAN module test suites. Rolling the fix back to give the
162 authors a bit of time to fix their tests.
4d845874 163
1640.71 Thu Sep 13 20:42:36 PDT 2007
165 Bug fixes
166 - Fixed a problem with BEGIN { use_ok } silently failing when there's no
167 plan set. [rt.cpan.org 28345] Thanks Adriano Ferreira and Yitzchak.
168 - Fixed an obscure problem with is_deeply() and overloading ==
169 [rt.cpan.org 20768]. Thanks Sisyphus.
170
171 Test fixes
172 - Removed dependency on Text::Soundex [rt.cpan.org 25022]
173 - Fixed a 5.5.x failure in fail-more.t
174 * Got rid of the annoying sort_bug.t test that revealed problems with some
00881caa 175 threaded perls. It was testing the deprecated eq_* functions and not
176 worth the bother. Now it tests is_deeply(). [rt.cpan.org 17791]
4d845874 177
178 Doc fixes
179 - Minor POD mistake in Test::Builder [rt.cpan.org 28869]
180 * Test::FAQ has been updated with some more answers.
181
182 Install fixes
183 - Fixed the "LICENSE is not a known MakeMaker parameter name" warning
184 on older MakeMakers for real this time.
185
0753bcb5 1860.70 Thu Mar 15 15:53:05 PDT 2007
187 Bug Fixes
188 * The change to is_fh() in 0.68 broke the case where a reference to
189 a tied filehandle is used for perl 5.6 and back. This made the tests
190 puke their guts out.
191
1920.69 Wed Mar 14 06:43:35 PDT 2007
193 Test fixes
194 - Minor filename compatibility fix to t/fail-more.t [rt.cpan.org 25428]
195
c00d8759 1960.68 Tue Mar 13 17:27:26 PDT 2007
197 Bug fixes
198 * If your code has a $SIG{__DIE__} handler in some cases functions like
199 use_ok(), require_ok(), can_ok() and isa_ok() could trigger that
200 handler. [rt.cpan.org 23509]
201 - Minor improvement to TB's filehandle detection in the case of overridden
202 isa(). [rt.cpan.org 20890]
203 - Will now install as a core module in 5.6.2 which ships with Test::More.
204 [rt.cpan.org 25163]
205
206 New Features
207 - Test::Builder->is_fh() provides a way to determine if a thing
208 can be used as a filehandle.
209
210 Documentation improvements
211 - Improved the docs for $Test::Builder::Level showing the encouraged
212 use (increment, don't set)
213 - Documented the return value of Test::Builder's test methods
214 - Split out TB's method documentation to differenciate between test
215 methods (ok, is_eq...), methods useful in testing (skip, BAILOUT...)
216 and methods useful for building your own tests (maybe_regex...).
217
218 Test fixes
219 - We required too old a version of Test::Pod::Coverage. Need 1.08 and not
220 1.00. [rt.cpan.org 25351]
221
2220.67 Mon Jan 22 13:27:40 PST 2007
223 Test fixes
224 - t/pod_coverage.t would fail if Test::Pod::Coverage between 1.07 and
225 1.00 were installed as it depended on all_modules being exported.
226 [rt.cpan.org 24483]
227
2280.66 Sun Dec 3 15:25:45 PST 2006
229 - Restore 5.4.5 compatibility (unobe@cpan.org) [rt.cpan.org 20513]
230
f9e5c490 2310.65 Fri Nov 10 10:26:51 CST 2006
232
004caa16 2330.64_03 Sun Nov 5 13:09:55 EST 2006
234 - Tests will no longer warn when run against an alpha version of
235 Test::Harness [rt.cpan.org #20501]
236 - Now testing our POD and POD coverage.
237 - Added a LICENSE field.
238 - Removed warning from the docs about mixing numbered and unnumbered
239 tests. There's nothing wrong with that. [rt.cpan.org 21358]
240 - Change doc examples to talk about $got and $expected rather than
241 $this and $that to correspond better to the diagnostic output
242 [rt.cpan.org 2655]
243
b7f9bbeb 2440.64_02 Sat Sep 9 12:16:56 EDT 2006
245 - Last release broke Perls earlier than 5.8.
246
2470.64_01 Mon Sep 4 04:40:42 EDT 2006
248 - Small improvement to the docs to avoid user confusion over
249 "use Test::More tests => $num_tests" (Thanks Eric Wilhelm)
250 - Minor fix for a test failure in is_deeply_fail for some Windows
251 users. Not a real bug. [rt.cpan.org 21310]
252 - _print_diag() accidentally leaked into the public documentation.
253 It is a private method.
004caa16 254 * Added Test::Builder->carp() and croak()
b7f9bbeb 255 * Made most of the error messages report in the caller's context.
256 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
257 * Made the failure diagnostic message file and line reporting portion
258 match Perl's for easier integration with Perl aware editors.
259 (so its "at $file line $line_num." now)
260 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
261 * 5.8.0 threads are no longer supported. There's too many bugs.
262
1be77ff7 2630.64 Sun Jul 16 02:47:29 PDT 2006
264 * 0.63's change to test_fail() broke backwards compatibility. They
265 have been removed for the time being. test_pass() went with it.
266 This is [rt.cpan.org 11317] and [rt.cpan.org 11319].
267 - skip() will now warn if you get the args backwards.
268
68938d83 2690.63 Sun Jul 9 02:36:36 PDT 2006
270 * Fixed can_ok() to gracefully handle no class name.
271 Submitted by "Pete Krawczyk" <perl@bsod.net>
272 Implemented by "Richard Foley" <richard.foley@rfi.net>
273 [rt.cpan.org 15654]
274 * Added test_pass() to Test::Builder::Tester rather than having to
275 call test_out("ok 1 - foo"). <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11317]
276 * test_fail() now accepts a test diagnostic rather than having to
277 call test_out() separately. <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11319]
278 - Changed Test::Builder::Tester docs to show best practice using
279 test_fail() and test_pass().
280 - isnt_num() doc example wrongly showed is_num(). <chromatic@wgz.org>
281 - Fixed a minor typo in the BAIL_OUT() docs. <Jeff Deifik>
282 - Removed the LICENSE field from the Makefile.PL as the release of
283 MakeMaker with that feature has been delayed.
284
845d7e37 2850.62 Sat Oct 8 01:25:03 PDT 2005
68938d83 286 * Absorbed Test::Builder::Tester. The last release broke it because its
845d7e37 287 screen scraping Test::More and the failure output changed. By
288 distributing them together we ensure TBT won't break again.
289 * Test::Builder->BAILOUT() was missing.
290 - is_deeply() can now handle function and code refs in a very limited
291 way. It simply looks to see if they have the same referent.
292 [rt.cpan.org 14746]
293
b1ddf169 2940.61 Fri Sep 23 23:26:05 PDT 2005
295 - create.t was trying to read from a file before it had been closed
296 (and thus the changes may not have yet been written).
297 * is_deeply() would call stringification methods on non-object strings
298 which happened to be the name of a string overloaded class.
299 [rt.cpan.org 14675]
300
3010.60_02 Tue Aug 9 00:27:41 PDT 2005
302 * Added Test::Builder::Module.
303 - Changed Test::More and Test::Simple to use Test::Builder::Module
304 - Minor Win32 testing nit in fail-more.t
305 * Added no_diag() method to Test::Builder and changed Test::More's
306 no_diag internals to use that. [rt.cpan.org 8655]
307 * Deprecated no_diag() as an option to "use Test::More". Call the
308 Test::Builder method instead.
309
3100.60_01 Sun Jul 3 18:11:58 PDT 2005
311 - Moved the docs around a little to better group all the testing
312 functions together. [rt.cpan.org 8388]
313 * Added a BAIL_OUT() function to Test::More [rt.cpan.org 8381]
314 - Changed Test::Builder->BAILOUT to BAIL_OUT to match other method's
315 naming conventions. BAILOUT remains but is deprecated.
316 * Changed the standard failure diagnostics to include the test name.
317 [rt.cpan.org 12490]
318 - is_deeply() was broken for overloaded objects in the top level in
319 0.59_01. [rt.cpan.org 13506]
320 - String overloaded objects without an 'eq' or '==' method are now
321 handled in cmp_ok() and is().
322 - cmp_ok() will now treat overloaded objects as numbers if the comparison
323 operator is numeric. [rt.cpan.org 13156]
324 - cmp_ok(), like() and unlike will now throw uninit warnings if their
325 arguments are undefined. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
326 - cmp_ok() will now throw warnings as if the comparison were run
327 normally, for example cmp_ok(2, '==', 'foo') will warn about 'foo'
328 not being numeric. Previously all warnings in the comparison were
329 supressed. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
330 - Tests will now report *both* the number of tests failed and if the
331 wrong number of tests were run. Previously if tests failed and the
332 wrong number were run it would only report the latter.
333 [rt.cpan.org 13494]
334 - Missing or extra tests are not considered failures for the purposes
335 of calculating the exit code. Should there be no failures but the
336 wrong number of tests the exit code will be 254.
337 - Avoiding an unbalanced sort in eq_set() [bugs.perl.org 36354]
338 - Documenting that eq_set() doesn't deal well with refs.
339 - Clarified how is_deeply() compares a bit.
340 * Once again working on 5.4.5.
341
5143c659 3420.60 Tue May 3 14:20:34 PDT 2005
343
3440.59_01 Tue Apr 26 21:51:12 PDT 2005
345 * Test::Builder now has a create() method which allows you to create
346 a brand spanking new Test::Builder object.
347 * require_ok() was not working for single letter module names.
348 * is_deeply() and eq_* now work with circular scalar references
349 (Thanks Fergal)
350 * Use of eq_* now officially discouraged.
351 - Removed eq_* from the SYNOPSIS.
352 - is_deeply(undef, $not_undef); now works. [rt.cpan.org 9441]
353 - is_deeply() was mistakenly interpeting the same reference used twice
354 in a data structure as being circular causing failures.
355 [rt.cpan.org 11623]
356 - Loading Test::Builder but not using it would interfere with the
357 exit code if the code exited. [rt.cpan.org 12310]
358 - is_deeply() diagnostics now disambiguate between stringified references
359 and references. [rt.cpan.org 8865]
360 - Files opened by the output methods are now autoflushed.
361 - todo() now honors $Level when looking for $TODO.
362
0257f296 3630.54 Wed Dec 15 04:18:43 EST 2004
364 * $how_many is optional for skip() and todo_skip(). Thanks to
365 Devel::Cover for pointing this out.
366 - Removed a user defined function called err() in the tests to placate
367 users of older versions of the dor patch before err() was weakend.
368 [rt.cpan.org 8734]
369
3700.53_01 Sat Dec 11 19:02:18 EST 2004
371 - current_test() can now be set backward.
372 - *output() methods now handle tied handles and *FOO{IO} properly.
373 - maybe_regex() now handles undef gracefully.
374 - maybe_regex() now handles 'm,foo,' style regexes.
375 - sort_bug.t wasn't checking for threads properly. Would fail on
376 5.6 that had ithreads compiled in. [rt.cpan.org 8765]
377
7483b81c 3780.53 Mon Nov 29 04:43:24 EST 2004
379 - Apparently its possible to have Module::Signature installed without
380 it being functional. Fixed the signature test to account for this.
381 (not a real bug)
382
3830.52 Sun Nov 28 21:41:03 EST 2004
384 - plan() now better checks that the given plan is valid.
385 [rt.cpan.org 2597]
386
3870.51_02 Sat Nov 27 01:25:25 EST 2004
388 * is_deeply() and all the eq_* functions now handle circular data
389 structures. [rt.cpan.org 7289]
390 * require_ok() now handles filepaths in addition to modules.
391 - Clarifying Test::More's position on overloaded objects
392 - Fixed a bug introduced in 0.51_01 causing is_deeply() to pierce
393 overloaded objects.
394 - Mentioning rt.cpan.org for reporting bugs.
395
3960.51_01 Fri Nov 26 02:59:30 EST 2004
397 - plan() was accidentally exporting functions [rt.cpan.org 8385]
398 * diag @msgs would insert # between arguments. [rt.cpan.org 8392]
399 * eq_set() could cause problems under threads due to a weird sort bug
400 [rt.cpan.org 6782]
401 * undef no longer equals '' in is_deeply() [rt.cpan.org 6837]
402 * is_deeply() would sometimes compare references as strings.
403 [rt.cpan.org 7031]
404 - eq_array() and eq_hash() could hold onto references if they failed
405 keeping them in memory and preventing DESTROY. [rt.cpan.org 7032]
406 * is_deeply() could confuse [] with a non-existing value
407 [rt.cpan.org 7030]
408 - is_deeply() diagnostics a little off when scalar refs were inside
409 an array or hash ref [rt.cpan.org 7033]
410 - Thanks to Fergal Daly for ferretting out all these long standing
411 is_deeply and eq_* bugs.
412
4130.51 Tue Nov 23 04:51:12 EST 2004
414 - Fixed bug in fail_one.t on Windows (not a real bug).
415 - TODO reasons as overloaded objects now won't blow up under threads.
416 [Autrijus Tang]
417 - skip() in 0.50 tickled yet another bug in threads::shared. Hacked
418 around it.
419
30e302f8 4200.50 Sat Nov 20 00:28:44 EST 2004
7483b81c 421 - Fixed bug in fail-more test on Windows (not a real bug).
30e302f8 422 [rt.cpan.org 8022]
7483b81c 423 - Change from CVS to SVK. Hopefully this is the last time I move
424 version control systems.
30e302f8 425 - Again removing File::Spec dependency (came back in 0.48_02)
426 - Change from Aegis back to CVS
427
4280.49 Thu Oct 14 21:58:50 EDT 2004
429 - t/harness_active.t would fail for frivolous reasons with older
430 MakeMakers (test bug) [thanks Bill Moseley for noticing]
431

436 now won't cause internal uninit warnings. [rt.cpan.org 4232]
437 * Failure diagnostics now come out on their own line when run in
438 Test::Harness.
439 - eq_set() sometimes wasn't giving the right results if nested refs
440 were involved [rt.cpan.org 3747]
