From: Ryan Davis Date: 2012-07-27T09:10:30+09:00 Subject: [ANN] minitest 3.3.0 Released minitest version 3.3.0 has been released! * home: * rdoc: * vim: minitest provides a complete suite of testing facilities supporting TDD, BDD, mocking, and benchmarking. "I had a class with Jim Weirich on testing last week and we were allowed to choose our testing frameworks. Kirk Haines and I were paired up and we cracked open the code for a few test frameworks... I MUST say that minitest is *very* readable / understandable compared to the 'other two' options we looked at. Nicely done and thank you for helping us keep our mental sanity." -- Wayne E. Seguin minitest/unit is a small and incredibly fast unit testing framework. It provides a rich set of assertions to make your tests clean and readable. minitest/spec is a functionally complete spec engine. It hooks onto minitest/unit and seamlessly bridges test assertions over to spec expectations. minitest/benchmark is an awesome way to assert the performance of your algorithms in a repeatable manner. Now you can assert that your newb co-worker doesn't replace your linear algorithm with an exponential one! minitest/mock by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock (and stub) object framework. minitest/pride shows pride in testing and adds coloring to your test output. I guess it is an example of how to write IO pipes too. :P minitest/unit is meant to have a clean implementation for language implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working test suite. For example, there is no magic involved for test-case discovery. "Again, I can't praise enough the idea of a testing/specing framework that I can actually read in full in one sitting!" -- Piotr Szotkowski Changes: ### 3.3.0 / 2012-07-26 * 1 major enhancement: * Deprecated add_(setup|teardown)_hook in favor of (before|after)_(setup|teardown) [2013-01-01] * 4 minor enhancements: * Refactored deprecated hook system into a module. * Refactored lifecycle hooks into a module. * Removed after_setup/before_teardown + run_X_hooks from Spec. * Spec#before/after now do a simple define_method and call super. DUR. * 2 bug fixes: * Fixed #passed? when used against a test that called flunk. (floehopper) * Fixed rdoc bug preventing doco for some expectations. (stomar).
