Subject: [ANN] miniunit 1.2.0 Released


miniunit version 1.2.0 has been released!

* <http://rubyforge.org/projects/bfts>

mini/test is a completely minimial drop-in replacement for ruby's
test/unit. This is meant to be clean and easy to use both as a regular
test writer and for language implementors that need a minimal set of
methods to bootstrap a working unit test suite.

mini/spec is a functionally complete spec engine.

mini/mock, by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock object framework.

Changes:

### 1.2.0 / 2008-06-09

* 2 major enhancements:

   * Added Mini::Spec.
   * Added Mini::Mock. Thanks Steven Baker!!

* 23 minor enhancements:

   * Added bin/use_miniunit to make it easy to test out miniunit.
   * Added -n filtering, thanks to Phil Hagelberg!
   * Added args argument to #run, takes ARGV from at_exit.
   * Added test name output if $DEBUG.
   * Added a refute (was deny) for every assert.
   * Added capture_io and a bunch of nice assertions from zentest.
   * Added deprecation mechanism for assert_no/not methods to test/ 
unit/assertions.
   * Added pp output when available.
   * Added tests for all assertions. Pretty much maxed out coverage.
   * Added tests to verify consistency and good naming.
   * Aliased and deprecated all ugly assertions.
   * Cleaned out test/unit. Moved autorun there.
   * Code cleanup to make extensions easier. Thanks Chad!
   * Got spec args reversed in all but a couple assertions. Much more  
readable.
   * Improved error messages across the board. Adds your message to  
the default.
   * Moved into Mini namespace, renamed to Mini::Test and Mini::Spec.
   * Pulled the assertions into their own module...
   * Removed as much code as I could while still maintaining full  
functionality.
     * Moved filter_backtrace into MiniTest.
     * Removed MiniTest::Unit::run. Unnecessary.
     * Removed location_of_failure. Unnecessary.
     * Rewrote test/unit's filter_backtrace. Flog from 37.0 to 18.1
   * Removed assert_send. Google says it is never used.
   * Renamed MiniTest::Unit.autotest to #run.
   * Renamed deny to refute.
   * Rewrote some ugly/confusing default assertion messages.
   * assert_in_delta now defaults to 0.001 precision. Makes specs  
prettier.

* 9 bug fixes:

   * Fixed assert_raises to raise outside of the inner-begin/rescue.
   * Fixed for ruby 1.9 and rubinius.
   * No longer exits 0 if exception in code PRE-test run causes early  
exit.
   * Removed implementors method list from mini/test.rb - too stale.
   * assert_nothing_raised takes a class as an arg. wtf? STUPID
   * ".EF" output is now unbuffered.
   * Bunch of changes to get working with rails... UGH.
     * Added stupid hacks to deal with rails not requiring their  
dependencies.
     * Now bitch loudly if someone defines one of my classes instead  
of requiring.
   * Fixed infect method to work better on 1.9.
   * Fixed all shadowed variable warnings in 1.9.
