Changes for version 1.005000_001 - 2011-11-17
- This is the first alpha release of what has been termed Test::Builder1.5. It is Test::Builder implemented with the Test::Builder2 internals (formatters, event system, etc...). Aside from thread support, it is feature complete and supports all existing features of Test::Builder, Test::Simple and Test::More.
- Tests should continue to work as written. Please report any breakages at https://github.com/schwern/test-more/issues/
- Incompatible Changes (since 2.00_07)
- A lot, too many to list. If you were using an earlier alpha, all bets are off.
- Incompatible Changes (since 0.98)
- The test output format has changed in small ways. A later release will provide the means to format the output just like 0.98 does now.
Changes for version 2.00_07 - 2011-02-28
- Incompatible Changes (since 2.00_01)
- TB2::Event::Log now uses symbolic levels, not numeric. This lets us add new levels later. [github 111]
- Event log levels have been lower cased.
- The emergency and critical log levels have been removed. They didn't have a use case.
- TB2::Event::Log->levels now returns in order from lowest to highest.
- New Features
- Added TB2::Event::Log->between_levels() to compare log levels.
- The TAP formatter now respects log events.
- Test::Builder->diag and ->note now use log events and the formatter.
- Documentation
- The suggested meanings of event log levels are now documented.
- Bug Fixes
- Fixed a skip() or todo_skip() called before a plan. [github 132]
Changes for version 2.00_06 - 2011-01-27
- Incompatible Changes (since 2.00_01)
- The EventCoordinator now only has one history object. histories() is now history(). clear_history() and add_histories() are gone. [github 115]
- Subtest handling has been removed from the TAP formatter. The design was wrong. It will come back later in a better form [github 120]
- Test::Builder2::Counter, History and Formatter are no longer singletons. This is unnecessary, use the objects provided by your EventCoordinator.
- stream_depth() is now a method on the History object, not the TAP formatter. This makes it available to all event watchers. [github 118]
- history is now posted events before the formatter. This lets the formatter ask the history object about the test state.
- INNER_accept_event and INNER_accept_result are now gone from the Formatter. Write accept_event and accept_result normally.
- TB2->ok will now start the stream if there is not one already
- New Features
- Added Test::Builder2::CanLoad to protect $! and $@ from tests loading modules internally.
- Added Test::Builder2::Tester to test Test:: modules independent of their format. [github 112]
- Added Test::Builder2::History->plan to capture the plan event so builders don't have to
- Test::Builder no longer tracks the plan on its own, it uses the shared History object. [github 125]
- Bug Fixes
- More $@ and $! protection.
- Test::Builder now works with non-TAP formatters (or no formatter at all)
Changes for version 2.00_05 - 2011-01-24
- Bug Fix
- reset() was not grabbing a fresh copy of STDOUT and STDERR
- Test Fix
- Fixed t/Builder/fork_with_new_stdout.t on Windows.
Changes for version 2.00_04 - 2011-01-18
- Test Fix
- Work around a qr// bug in Debian etch's perl in t/Builder2/NoWarnings.t
- Tests looking for Mouse can now correctly find it.
- New Features
- Added a Log event (nothing using it yet)
- Added a Comment event (nothing using it yet)
- Bug Fixes
- Upgraded Mouse to 0.87
- Fixed the SimpleHTML example
- TB2::Streamer::TAP->error_fh could get accidentally initialized to undef.
Changes for version 2.00_03 - 2011-01-10
- Test Fix
- Casing mistake in t/CanDupFilehandles.t
Changes for version 2.00_02 - 2011-01-09
- Second alpha release of Test::Builder2. Technology Demonstrator. Design complete. Threads broken. Subtests broken. Test::Builder converted to use Test::Builder2 infrastructure. Let's see how much of CPAN this breaks.
Changes for version 2.00_01 - 2010-09-06
- First alpha release of Test::Builder2. Technology Preview. Very incomplete.
Changes for version 0.98_01 - 2011-11-08
- Bug Fixes
- BAIL_OUT works inside a subtest. (Larry Leszczynski) [github #138]
- subtests now work with threads turned on. [github #145]
- Feature Changes
- use_ok() will now apply lexical effects. [rt.cpan.org 67538] (Father Chrysostomos)
- Misc
- Test::More, Test::Simple and Test::Builder::Module now require a minimum version of Test::Builder. This avoids Test::More and Test::Builder from getting out of sync. [github #89]
