5
60.82 Tue Oct 14 23:06:56 EDT 2008
7 Bug Fixes
8 - 0.81_01 broke $TODO such that $TODO = '' was considered todo.
9
10
110.81_02 Tue Sep 9 04:35:40 PDT 2008
12 New Features
13 * Test::Builder->reset_outputs() to reset all the output methods back to
14 their defaults.
15
16 Bug Fixes
17 - Fixed the file and line number reported by like when it gets a bad
18 regex.
19
20 Features Changed
21 - Now preserves the tests' exit code if it exits abnormally, rather than
22 setting it to 255.
23 - Changed the "Looks like your test died" message to
24 "Looks like your test exited with $exit_code"
25 - no_plan now only warns if given an argument. There were a lot of people
26 doing that, and it's a sensible mistake. [test-more.googlecode.com 13]

28
290.81_01 Sat Sep 6 15:13:50 PDT 2008
30 New Features
31 * Adam Kennedy bribed me to add new_ok(). The price was one DEFCON license key.
32 [rt.cpan.org 8891]
33 * TODO tests can now start and end with 'todo_start' and 'todo_end'
34 Test::Builder methods. [rt.cpan.org 38018]
35 * Added Test::Builder->in_todo() for a safe way to check if a test is inside a
36 TODO block. This allows TODO tests with no reason.
37 * Added note() and explain() to both Test::More and Test::Builder.
38 [rt.cpan.org 14764] [test-more.googlecode.com 3]
39
40 Features Changed
41 * Changed the message for extra tests run to show the number of tests run rather than
42 the number extra to avoid the user having to do mental math.
43 [rt.cpan.org 7022]
44
45 Bug fixes
46 - using a relative path to perl broke tests [rt.cpan.org 34050]
47 - use_ok() broke $SIG{__DIE__} in the used module [rt.cpan.org 34065]
48 - diagnostics for isnt() were confusing on failure [rt.cpan.org 33642]
49 - warnings when MakeMaker's version contained _ [rt.cpan.org 33626]
50 - add explicit test that non-integer plans die correctly [rt.cpan.org 28836]
51 (Thanks to Hans Dieter Pearcey [confound] for fixing the above)
52 - die if no_plan is given an argument [rt.cpan.org 27429]
53
54
bdff39c7 550.80 Sun Apr 6 17:25:01 CEST 2008
56 Test fixes
57 - Completely disable the utf8 test. It was causing perl to panic on some OS's.
58
59
600.79_01 Wed Feb 27 03:04:54 PST 2008
61 Bug fixes
62 - Let's try the IO layer copying again, this time with the test
63 fixed for 5.10.
64
65
660.78 Wed Feb 27 01:59:09 PST 2008
67 Bug fixes
68 * Whoops, the version of Test::Builder::Tester got moved backwards.
69
70
710.77 Wed Feb 27 01:55:55 PST 2008
72 Bug fixes
73 - "use Test::Builder::Module" no longer sets exported_to() or does
74 any other importing.
75 - Fix the $TODO finding code so it can find $TODO without the benefit
76 of exported_to(), which is often wrong.
77 - Turn off the filehandle locale stuff for the moment, there's a
78 problem on 5.10. We'll try it again next release.
79
80 Doc improvements
81 - Improve the Test::Builder SYNOPSIS to use Test::Builder::Module
82 rather than write it's own import().
83
84
850.76_02 Sun Feb 24 13:12:55 PST 2008
86 Bug fixes
87 * The default test output filehandles will NOT use utf8.
88 They will now copy the IO layers from STDOUT and STDERR.
89 This means if :utf8 is on then it will honor it and not
90 warn about wide characters.
91
92
930.76_01 Sat Feb 23 20:44:32 PST 2008
94 Bug fixes
95 * Test::Builder no longer uses a __DIE__ handler. This resolves a number
96 of problems with exit codes being swallowed or other module's handlers
97 being interfered with. [rt.cpan.org 25294]
98 - Allow maybe_regex() to detect blessed regexes. [bleadperl @32880]
99 - The default test output filehandles will now use utf8.
100 [rt.cpan.org 21091]
101
102 Test fixes
103 - Remove the signature test. Adds no security and just generates
104 failures.
105
106
1070.75 Sat Feb 23 19:03:38 PST 2008
108 Incompatibilities
109 * The minimum version is now 5.6.0.
110
111 Bug fixes
112 - Turns out require_ok() had the same bug as use_ok() in a BEGIN block.
113 - ok() was not honoring exported_to() when looking for $TODO as it
114 should be.
115
116 Test fixes
117 * is_deeply_with_threads.t will not run unless AUTHOR_TESTING is set.
118 This is because it tickles intermittent threading bugs in many perls
119 and causes a lot of bug reports about which I can do nothing.
120
121 Misc
122 - Ran through perlcritic and did some cleaning.
123
00881caa 1240.74 Thu Nov 29 15:39:57 PST 2007
125 Misc
126 - Add abstract and author to the meta information.
127
1280.73_01 Mon Oct 15 20:35:15 EDT 2007
129 Bug fixes
130 * Put the use_ok() fix from 0.71 back.
131
4d845874 1320.72 Wed Sep 19 20:08:07 PDT 2007
133 Bug unfixes
134 * The BEGIN { use_ok } fix for [rt.cpan.org 28345] revealed a small pile of
00881caa 135 mistakes in CPAN module test suites. Rolling the fix back to give the
136 authors a bit of time to fix their tests.
4d845874 137
1380.71 Thu Sep 13 20:42:36 PDT 2007
139 Bug fixes
140 - Fixed a problem with BEGIN { use_ok } silently failing when there's no
141 plan set. [rt.cpan.org 28345] Thanks Adriano Ferreira and Yitzchak.
142 - Fixed an obscure problem with is_deeply() and overloading ==
143 [rt.cpan.org 20768]. Thanks Sisyphus.
144
145 Test fixes
146 - Removed dependency on Text::Soundex [rt.cpan.org 25022]
147 - Fixed a 5.5.x failure in fail-more.t
148 * Got rid of the annoying sort_bug.t test that revealed problems with some
00881caa 149 threaded perls. It was testing the deprecated eq_* functions and not
150 worth the bother. Now it tests is_deeply(). [rt.cpan.org 17791]
4d845874 151
152 Doc fixes
153 - Minor POD mistake in Test::Builder [rt.cpan.org 28869]
154 * Test::FAQ has been updated with some more answers.
155
156 Install fixes
157 - Fixed the "LICENSE is not a known MakeMaker parameter name" warning
158 on older MakeMakers for real this time.
159
0753bcb5 1600.70 Thu Mar 15 15:53:05 PDT 2007
161 Bug Fixes
162 * The change to is_fh() in 0.68 broke the case where a reference to
163 a tied filehandle is used for perl 5.6 and back. This made the tests
164 puke their guts out.
165
1660.69 Wed Mar 14 06:43:35 PDT 2007
167 Test fixes
168 - Minor filename compatibility fix to t/fail-more.t [rt.cpan.org 25428]
169
c00d8759 1700.68 Tue Mar 13 17:27:26 PDT 2007
171 Bug fixes
172 * If your code has a $SIG{__DIE__} handler in some cases functions like
173 use_ok(), require_ok(), can_ok() and isa_ok() could trigger that
174 handler. [rt.cpan.org 23509]
175 - Minor improvement to TB's filehandle detection in the case of overridden
176 isa(). [rt.cpan.org 20890]
177 - Will now install as a core module in 5.6.2 which ships with Test::More.
178 [rt.cpan.org 25163]
179
180 New Features
181 - Test::Builder->is_fh() provides a way to determine if a thing
182 can be used as a filehandle.
183
184 Documentation improvements
185 - Improved the docs for $Test::Builder::Level showing the encouraged
186 use (increment, don't set)
187 - Documented the return value of Test::Builder's test methods
188 - Split out TB's method documentation to differenciate between test
189 methods (ok, is_eq...), methods useful in testing (skip, BAILOUT...)
190 and methods useful for building your own tests (maybe_regex...).
191
192 Test fixes
193 - We required too old a version of Test::Pod::Coverage. Need 1.08 and not
194 1.00. [rt.cpan.org 25351]
195
1960.67 Mon Jan 22 13:27:40 PST 2007
197 Test fixes
198 - t/pod_coverage.t would fail if Test::Pod::Coverage between 1.07 and
199 1.00 were installed as it depended on all_modules being exported.
200 [rt.cpan.org 24483]
201
2020.66 Sun Dec 3 15:25:45 PST 2006
203 - Restore 5.4.5 compatibility (unobe@cpan.org) [rt.cpan.org 20513]
204
f9e5c490 2050.65 Fri Nov 10 10:26:51 CST 2006
206
004caa16 2070.64_03 Sun Nov 5 13:09:55 EST 2006
208 - Tests will no longer warn when run against an alpha version of
209 Test::Harness [rt.cpan.org #20501]
210 - Now testing our POD and POD coverage.
211 - Added a LICENSE field.
212 - Removed warning from the docs about mixing numbered and unnumbered
213 tests. There's nothing wrong with that. [rt.cpan.org 21358]
214 - Change doc examples to talk about $got and $expected rather than
215 $this and $that to correspond better to the diagnostic output
216 [rt.cpan.org 2655]
217
b7f9bbeb 2180.64_02 Sat Sep 9 12:16:56 EDT 2006
219 - Last release broke Perls earlier than 5.8.
220
2210.64_01 Mon Sep 4 04:40:42 EDT 2006
222 - Small improvement to the docs to avoid user confusion over
223 "use Test::More tests => $num_tests" (Thanks Eric Wilhelm)
224 - Minor fix for a test failure in is_deeply_fail for some Windows
225 users. Not a real bug. [rt.cpan.org 21310]
226 - _print_diag() accidentally leaked into the public documentation.
227 It is a private method.
004caa16 228 * Added Test::Builder->carp() and croak()
b7f9bbeb 229 * Made most of the error messages report in the caller's context.
230 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
231 * Made the failure diagnostic message file and line reporting portion
232 match Perl's for easier integration with Perl aware editors.
233 (so its "at $file line $line_num." now)
234 [rt.cpan.org #20639]
235 * 5.8.0 threads are no longer supported. There's too many bugs.
236
1be77ff7 2370.64 Sun Jul 16 02:47:29 PDT 2006
238 * 0.63's change to test_fail() broke backwards compatibility. They
239 have been removed for the time being. test_pass() went with it.
240 This is [rt.cpan.org 11317] and [rt.cpan.org 11319].
241 - skip() will now warn if you get the args backwards.
242
68938d83 2430.63 Sun Jul 9 02:36:36 PDT 2006
244 * Fixed can_ok() to gracefully handle no class name.
245 Submitted by "Pete Krawczyk" <perl@bsod.net>
246 Implemented by "Richard Foley" <richard.foley@rfi.net>
247 [rt.cpan.org 15654]
248 * Added test_pass() to Test::Builder::Tester rather than having to
249 call test_out("ok 1 - foo"). <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11317]
250 * test_fail() now accepts a test diagnostic rather than having to
251 call test_out() separately. <chromatic@wgz.org> [rt.cpan.org 11319]
252 - Changed Test::Builder::Tester docs to show best practice using
253 test_fail() and test_pass().
254 - isnt_num() doc example wrongly showed is_num(). <chromatic@wgz.org>
255 - Fixed a minor typo in the BAIL_OUT() docs. <Jeff Deifik>
256 - Removed the LICENSE field from the Makefile.PL as the release of
257 MakeMaker with that feature has been delayed.
258
845d7e37 2590.62 Sat Oct 8 01:25:03 PDT 2005
68938d83 260 * Absorbed Test::Builder::Tester. The last release broke it because its
845d7e37 261 screen scraping Test::More and the failure output changed. By
262 distributing them together we ensure TBT won't break again.
263 * Test::Builder->BAILOUT() was missing.
264 - is_deeply() can now handle function and code refs in a very limited
265 way. It simply looks to see if they have the same referent.
266 [rt.cpan.org 14746]
267
b1ddf169 2680.61 Fri Sep 23 23:26:05 PDT 2005
269 - create.t was trying to read from a file before it had been closed
270 (and thus the changes may not have yet been written).
271 * is_deeply() would call stringification methods on non-object strings
272 which happened to be the name of a string overloaded class.
273 [rt.cpan.org 14675]
274
2750.60_02 Tue Aug 9 00:27:41 PDT 2005
276 * Added Test::Builder::Module.
277 - Changed Test::More and Test::Simple to use Test::Builder::Module
278 - Minor Win32 testing nit in fail-more.t
279 * Added no_diag() method to Test::Builder and changed Test::More's
280 no_diag internals to use that. [rt.cpan.org 8655]
281 * Deprecated no_diag() as an option to "use Test::More". Call the
282 Test::Builder method instead.
283
2840.60_01 Sun Jul 3 18:11:58 PDT 2005
285 - Moved the docs around a little to better group all the testing
286 functions together. [rt.cpan.org 8388]
287 * Added a BAIL_OUT() function to Test::More [rt.cpan.org 8381]
288 - Changed Test::Builder->BAILOUT to BAIL_OUT to match other method's
289 naming conventions. BAILOUT remains but is deprecated.
290 * Changed the standard failure diagnostics to include the test name.
291 [rt.cpan.org 12490]
292 - is_deeply() was broken for overloaded objects in the top level in
293 0.59_01. [rt.cpan.org 13506]
294 - String overloaded objects without an 'eq' or '==' method are now
295 handled in cmp_ok() and is().
296 - cmp_ok() will now treat overloaded objects as numbers if the comparison
297 operator is numeric. [rt.cpan.org 13156]
298 - cmp_ok(), like() and unlike will now throw uninit warnings if their
299 arguments are undefined. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
300 - cmp_ok() will now throw warnings as if the comparison were run
301 normally, for example cmp_ok(2, '==', 'foo') will warn about 'foo'
302 not being numeric. Previously all warnings in the comparison were
303 supressed. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
304 - Tests will now report *both* the number of tests failed and if the
305 wrong number of tests were run. Previously if tests failed and the
306 wrong number were run it would only report the latter.
307 [rt.cpan.org 13494]
308 - Missing or extra tests are not considered failures for the purposes
309 of calculating the exit code. Should there be no failures but the
310 wrong number of tests the exit code will be 254.
311 - Avoiding an unbalanced sort in eq_set() [bugs.perl.org 36354]
312 - Documenting that eq_set() doesn't deal well with refs.
313 - Clarified how is_deeply() compares a bit.
314 * Once again working on 5.4.5.
315
5143c659 3160.60 Tue May 3 14:20:34 PDT 2005
317
3180.59_01 Tue Apr 26 21:51:12 PDT 2005
319 * Test::Builder now has a create() method which allows you to create
320 a brand spanking new Test::Builder object.
321 * require_ok() was not working for single letter module names.
322 * is_deeply() and eq_* now work with circular scalar references
323 (Thanks Fergal)
324 * Use of eq_* now officially discouraged.
325 - Removed eq_* from the SYNOPSIS.
326 - is_deeply(undef, $not_undef); now works. [rt.cpan.org 9441]
327 - is_deeply() was mistakenly interpeting the same reference used twice
328 in a data structure as being circular causing failures.
329 [rt.cpan.org 11623]
330 - Loading Test::Builder but not using it would interfere with the
331 exit code if the code exited. [rt.cpan.org 12310]
332 - is_deeply() diagnostics now disambiguate between stringified references
333 and references. [rt.cpan.org 8865]
334 - Files opened by the output methods are now autoflushed.
335 - todo() now honors $Level when looking for $TODO.
336
0257f296 3370.54 Wed Dec 15 04:18:43 EST 2004
338 * $how_many is optional for skip() and todo_skip(). Thanks to
339 Devel::Cover for pointing this out.
340 - Removed a user defined function called err() in the tests to placate
341 users of older versions of the dor patch before err() was weakend.
342 [rt.cpan.org 8734]
343
3440.53_01 Sat Dec 11 19:02:18 EST 2004
345 - current_test() can now be set backward.
346 - *output() methods now handle tied handles and *FOO{IO} properly.
347 - maybe_regex() now handles undef gracefully.
348 - maybe_regex() now handles 'm,foo,' style regexes.
349 - sort_bug.t wasn't checking for threads properly. Would fail on
350 5.6 that had ithreads compiled in. [rt.cpan.org 8765]
351
7483b81c 3520.53 Mon Nov 29 04:43:24 EST 2004
353 - Apparently its possible to have Module::Signature installed without
354 it being functional. Fixed the signature test to account for this.
355 (not a real bug)
356
3570.52 Sun Nov 28 21:41:03 EST 2004
358 - plan() now better checks that the given plan is valid.
359 [rt.cpan.org 2597]
360
3610.51_02 Sat Nov 27 01:25:25 EST 2004
362 * is_deeply() and all the eq_* functions now handle circular data
363 structures. [rt.cpan.org 7289]
364 * require_ok() now handles filepaths in addition to modules.
365 - Clarifying Test::More's position on overloaded objects
366 - Fixed a bug introduced in 0.51_01 causing is_deeply() to pierce
367 overloaded objects.
368 - Mentioning rt.cpan.org for reporting bugs.
369
3700.51_01 Fri Nov 26 02:59:30 EST 2004
371 - plan() was accidentally exporting functions [rt.cpan.org 8385]
372 * diag @msgs would insert # between arguments. [rt.cpan.org 8392]
373 * eq_set() could cause problems under threads due to a weird sort bug
374 [rt.cpan.org 6782]
375 * undef no longer equals '' in is_deeply() [rt.cpan.org 6837]
376 * is_deeply() would sometimes compare references as strings.
377 [rt.cpan.org 7031]
378 - eq_array() and eq_hash() could hold onto references if they failed
379 keeping them in memory and preventing DESTROY. [rt.cpan.org 7032]
380 * is_deeply() could confuse [] with a non-existing value
381 [rt.cpan.org 7030]
382 - is_deeply() diagnostics a little off when scalar refs were inside
383 an array or hash ref [rt.cpan.org 7033]
384 - Thanks to Fergal Daly for ferretting out all these long standing
385 is_deeply and eq_* bugs.
386
3870.51 Tue Nov 23 04:51:12 EST 2004
388 - Fixed bug in fail_one.t on Windows (not a real bug).
389 - TODO reasons as overloaded objects now won't blow up under threads.
390 [Autrijus Tang]
391 - skip() in 0.50 tickled yet another bug in threads::shared. Hacked
392 around it.
393
30e302f8 3940.50 Sat Nov 20 00:28:44 EST 2004
7483b81c 395 - Fixed bug in fail-more test on Windows (not a real bug).
30e302f8 396 [rt.cpan.org 8022]
7483b81c 397 - Change from CVS to SVK. Hopefully this is the last time I move
398 version control systems.
30e302f8 399 - Again removing File::Spec dependency (came back in 0.48_02)
400 - Change from Aegis back to CVS
401
4020.49 Thu Oct 14 21:58:50 EDT 2004
403 - t/harness_active.t would fail for frivolous reasons with older
404 MakeMakers (test bug) [thanks Bill Moseley for noticing]
405
4060.48_02 Mon Jul 19 02:07:23 EDT 2004
407 * Overloaded objects as names now won't blow up under threads
408 [rt.cpan.org 4218 and 4232]
409 * Overloaded objects which stringify to undef used as test names
410 now won't cause internal uninit warnings. [rt.cpan.org 4232]
411 * Failure diagnostics now come out on their own line when run in
412 Test::Harness.
413 - eq_set() sometimes wasn't giving the right results if nested refs
414 were involved [rt.cpan.org 3747]
415 - isnt() giving wrong diagnostics and warning if given any undefs.
416 * Give unlike() the right prototype [rt.cpan.org 4944]
417 - Change from CVS to Aegis
418 - is_deeply() will now do some basic argument checks to guard against
419 accidentally passing in a whole array instead of its reference.
420 - Mentioning Test::Differences, Test::Deep and Bundle::Test.
421 - Removed dependency on File::Spec.
422 - Fixing the grammar of diagnostic outputs when only a single test
423 is run or failed (ie. "Looks like you failed 1 tests").
424 [Darren Chamberlain]
425
4260.48_01 Mon Nov 11 02:36:43 EST 2002
