Changes for version 3.17_04

  • Fix failures due to unknown location of Perl in t/source_handler.t.
  • Use EUMM style shebang magic to produce an executable 'psql' for t/source_handler.t.

Changes for version 3.17_03 - 2009-11-19

  • Fix failures due to over-strict assertions in t/source.t.

Changes for version 3.17_02 - 2009-11-17

  • Merge in Steve's missing changes. Oops.

Changes for version 3.17_01 - 2009-11-17

  • Re-engineered source handling API to allow users to configure how TAP is sourced by the parser. Introduced a new 'sources' param to TAP::Harness, and new options to prove, eg:
    • prove --source XYZ --xyz-option foo=bar
    • The new TAP::Parser::SourceHandler API makes it much easier to write plugins. This breaks backwards compatibility for plugins & extenstions that rely on the following APIs:
      • TAP::Parser::Source TAP::Parser::SourceFactory TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory TAP::Parser, specifically: new: 'source' & 'tap' params source_class perl_source_class iterator_factory_class make_source make_perl_source make_iterator
    • Please see the TAP::Parser docs for more details.
    • Steve Purkis & David Wheeler
  • Removed dependency on File::Spec [Schwern]
  • Made it possible to pass different args to each test [Lee Johnson]
  • Added HARNESS_SUBCLASS option to Test::Harness
  • Added TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File which lets you to stream TAP from a text file (eg: *.tap).
  • Added TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::pgTAP. All the source handlers are new, but this is the only one to add major new functioality: the ability to run pgTAP tests (http://pgtap.projects.postgresql.org/).
