0.26 - or the "really working on windows this time (fingers crossed)" release - Tests that look at test_err from Test::Builder::Tester now use caller() to get the filename - just like Test::Builder. So hopefully everything should work on all platforms this time. - Updated the Test::* version dependencies to something vaguely modern - Fixed runtests_die.t, which still had platform-specific paths in 0.25 - or the "idiotic platform specific tests fixed" release - Fixed RT#31122 that was failing tests on Strawberry Perl (thanks to Chris Dolan) 0.24 - or the "hating perl's broken object model" release - Stopped throwing warnings when Contextual::Return was loaded due to the AUTOLOADING of isa() (thank's to agianni) - If you are filtering with TEST_METHOD your startup/shutdown methods still get executed (thanks Chris Dolan) 0.23 - or the "damn David and his smoke testing" release - Added explicit dependency on Test::Simple for those odd folk who have old Test::Simple releases running with a recent Test::Builder::Tester (thanks David Cantrell) 0.22 - or the "++ becomes a legal regex" release - Factored out some common code - Added test for Test::Class::Load not loading modules successfully - Tidied up all the T::C::L test libraries into t/test-libs - Added patch from Nicholas Clark to make T::C work with blead perl 0.21 - or the "we're all growed up" release - expected_tests() gives a sensible info when given undef as an argument - fixed bug when we repeatedly wrapped Test::Builder::ok with extra Test::Class functionality every time we run a test method - Test::Class::Load only adds directories to @INC once 0.20 - or the "you failed where?" release - Added an extra diagnostic line on test failures that list the method that failed and the class being tested. Makes locating test failures in test class hierarchies much simpler. - Added some tests for plan math for startup/shutdown methods (phew they worked!) 0.19 - or the "last RT bug crushed" release - You now get a sensible error message if you load Test::Class after the CHECK phase where the :Test attribute gets applied. - Added "A NOTE ON LOADING TEST CLASSES" section that describes the issue of the :Test attribute being applied at CHECK time 0.18 - or the "damn multiple inheritence" release - You now get a sensible error message if Test::Class's new() gets overridden badly via a subclass or multiple inheritance 0.17 - or the "wot I did on the train" release - Removed pointless uses of UNIVERSAL::isa - We rename "test name" to "test description" to confirm with current TAP nomenclature - Added some pointers to third party documentation - Added references to Test::Object, Test::Group and Test::Block - Actually added spelling.t to the distro (sigh) 0.16 - or the "sepling mist ook!" release - Added (optional) spelling tests for the POD in t/developer - Fixed a whole bunch of spelling mistakes - Added some references to Test::Class::Load in the main Test::Class POD - Added more modules that use Test::Class to SEE ALSO 0.15 - or the "down. down. deeper and down" release - Now works with Test::Deep, which annoyingly defines its own isa() subroutine. This no longer confuses Test::Class into thinking Test::Deep isa Test::Class. - Added some more modules that use Test::Class to SEE ALSO 0.14 - or the "for the Windows folk" release - Test::Class::Load now works on Windows (thanks Kenichi Ishigaki for the patch) - Tests should now pass on Windows (thanks Kenichi Ishigaki again!) 0.13 - or the "just to make Ovid & David happy" release - Added Test::Class::Load (thanks Ovid) to allow you to easily load test classes - Added ability to run a specific test or set of tests based upon a regular expression specified in the TEST_METHOD environment variable (thanks to Ovid again). This mechanism is likely to change in the future but it's useful enough to go in now. - Fixed some broken code in the POD (thanks Jeff Deifik) - Removed Cwd from prerequisites - it's core 0.12 - or the "to avoid public mocking" release - Fixed the installation errors that everybody has been rightly complaining about for the last year: - Prerequisities in requires, not build_requires - Tests no longer rely on hard coded test output (thanks Mart’n Ferrari and Nicholas Clark for patches) - Require appropriate version of Test::Exception - Added link to del.icio.us perl+testing links in POD - Fixed some bad markup in the POD - Stuck distribution related tests under t/developer - Added Perl::Critic tests under t/developer - Added some documentation for Test::Class::MethodInfo since I was bored with people asking what it was for (it's internal - don't use it) - Added a whole bunch of people to the acknowledgements section 0.11 - A belated thank you added to some folk who send in RT bugs and whose name I missed off the acknowledgements section - Tweaked link to XUL::Node in SEE ALSO - Changed RT link so it went directly to Test::Class page - An exception in a startup method now causes the rest of the tests in the current test object to be ignored, and no longer gives a bogus warning (reported by Emil Jansson - ta!) - Added COMMUNITY section to POD 0.10 - Really fixed the _test_classes bug (doh!) - Added :Tests attribute that acts like :Test but defaults to 'no_plan' if no test number is given. 0.09 - Fixed bug with _test_classes spotted by Corion's cpan smoker (see t/test_classes.t) - Added links to tada to do list to TO DO section of POD - Added links modules that use Test::Class to SEE ALSO section of POD (thanks to Terrence Brannon for suggesting this) 0.08 - The undocumented behaviour of C has been tweaked and documented. You can now run all loaded test classes by doing Test::Class->runtests - Removed undocumented autorun method, and replaced with SKIP_CLASS. This allows you to prevent test classes being run by runtests. - Removed undocumented class method run_all_tests. (thanks to David Wheeler & Ovid for helping define the above behaviour) 0.07 - Removed Test::Class::Tutorial & Test::Class::BaseTest since they shouldn't have escaped into the wild quite yet. Oops. 0.06 - Some cosmetic POD updates 0.06_8 - Made tests pass with Test::Simple 0.48 - New signature since old one about to be revoked 0.06_7 - Added Module::Build support 0.06_6 - Fixed bogus test failures under MSWin32 0.06_5 - Cleaned up internals - Having a single method be simultaniously a setup and teardown method no longer supported - The undocumented add_method method, that you should not have been using anyway, disappears 0.06_4 - Fixed bogus heading styles in POD - Test names that default to $self->current_method now replace all "_" characters with spaces to increase readability - Documented default test name behaviour - D'oh! Fixed MANIFEST so the distribution actually included the new tests for 0.06_3 and 0.06_2 0.06_3 - more POD tweaks - all tests now compile with warnings enabled - test name now defaults to $self->current_method 0.06_2 - now uses inside out objects so restriction on using -test and _test as hash keys has been removed - tweaked POD of Test::Class - you can now have spaces around test numbers, etc. (bug report and patch from David Wheeler) 0.06_1 - removed examples directory from distribution, needs rewrite - removed .svn directories from distribution (doh!) - removed Test::Class::Tutorial from distribution - needs rewrite - removed Test::Class::BaseTest - needs rethink - cleaned up Test::Class POD a bit - documented.t now uses Test::Pod::Coverage if available - pod.t now uses Test::Pod if available - private methods now called as functions to avoid problems with subclasses accidentally overriding 0.05 (not distributed on CPAN) - fixed MANIFEST and MANIFEST.SKIP - now skips rest of tests in a test method after first failure due to an exception. 0.04 (not distributed on CPAN) - refactored mercylessly - Added Test::Class::MethodInfo - Added first draft of Test::Class::Tutorial. Feedback welcome. - rearranged Test::Class POD (hopefully making it clearer!) - dropped total_num_tests, teardown_methods, setup_methods and test_methods from public interface - they were implementation details that shouldn't have been public in first place. If you disagree let me know (with a rationale) and I'll probably add them back :-) - fixed bug where runtests() could blow up if supplied with a non-Test::Class - fixed bug where runtests returned whether all tests had passed, rather than whether all test run on test object passed - bug with runtests showing duplicate header lines fixed (thanks to Michael for adding has_plan() to Test::Builder) - FAIL_ALL now exits with the # tests failed (or 254 if more than 254 tests failed) to match behaviour of Test::Simple et al. - An extra exception thrown after all the tests in a method have run now causes a failed test (to better match the behaviour of a die at the end of a normal test script). - Changed diagnostic messages when exceptions occur to show method exception occurred in. Makes tracking failure easier. - Added Test::Class::BaseTest - base class for creating a fixture and testing it's of the correct class. - Diagnostic messages improved - Plan correctly shown when setup/teardown method without any tests throws an exception - TEST_VERBOSE now outputs a newline before the method name which makes reading verbose output easier. - Added startup and shutdown methods after suggestion from Tony Bowden. - Added run_all_classes and autorun - inspired by comments from Tony Bowden on running multiple Test::Classes easily - Changed runtests so that it will run all of a classes autorunnable sub-classes if called as a class method with no arguments. 0.03 Thu Jun 20 - fixed README - fixed tests that broke now Test::Builder (quite rightly) can no longer display multiple plans in v0.15 - tidied up the code a little. 0.02 Sat Jun 15 - released to perl-qa@perl.org 0.01 Fri May 10 22:36:52 2002 - original version; created by h2xs 1.21 with options -AX -n Test::Class
