New test/fmw/gtest/CHANGES

   1 Changes for 1.7.0:
   2 
   3 * New feature: death tests are supported on OpenBSD and in iOS
   4   simulator now.
   5 * New feature: Google Test now implements a protocol to allow
   6   a test runner to detect that a test program has exited
   7   prematurely and report it as a failure (before it would be
   8   falsely reported as a success if the exit code is 0).
   9 * New feature: Test::RecordProperty() can now be used outside of the
  10   lifespan of a test method, in which case it will be attributed to
  11   the current test case or the test program in the XML report.
  12 * New feature (potentially breaking): --gtest_list_tests now prints
  13   the type parameters and value parameters for each test.
  14 * Improvement: char pointers and char arrays are now escaped properly
  15   in failure messages.
  16 * Improvement: failure summary in XML reports now includes file and
  17   line information.
  18 * Improvement: the <testsuites> XML element now has a timestamp attribute.
  19 * Improvement: When --gtest_filter is specified, XML report now doesn't
  20   contain information about tests that are filtered out.
  21 * Fixed the bug where long --gtest_filter flag values are truncated in
  22   death tests.
  23 * Potentially breaking change: RUN_ALL_TESTS() is now implemented as a
  24   function instead of a macro in order to work better with Clang.
  25 * Compatibility fixes with C++ 11 and various platforms.
  26 * Bug/warning fixes.
  27 
  28 Changes for 1.6.0:
  29 
  30 * New feature: ADD_FAILURE_AT() for reporting a test failure at the
  31   given source location -- useful for writing testing utilities.
  32 * New feature: the universal value printer is moved from Google Mock
  33   to Google Test.
  34 * New feature: type parameters and value parameters are reported in
  35   the XML report now.
  36 * A gtest_disable_pthreads CMake option.
  37 * Colored output works in GNU Screen sessions now.
  38 * Parameters of value-parameterized tests are now printed in the
  39   textual output.
  40 * Failures from ad hoc test assertions run before RUN_ALL_TESTS() are
  41   now correctly reported.
  42 * Arguments of ASSERT_XY and EXPECT_XY no longer need to support << to
  43   ostream.
  44 * More complete handling of exceptions.
  45 * GTEST_ASSERT_XY can be used instead of ASSERT_XY in case the latter
  46   name is already used by another library.
  47 * --gtest_catch_exceptions is now true by default, allowing a test
  48   program to continue after an exception is thrown.
  49 * Value-parameterized test fixtures can now derive from Test and
  50   WithParamInterface<T> separately, easing conversion of legacy tests.
  51 * Death test messages are clearly marked to make them more
  52   distinguishable from other messages.
  53 * Compatibility fixes for Android, Google Native Client, MinGW, HP UX,
  54   PowerPC, Lucid autotools, libCStd, Sun C++, Borland C++ Builder (Code Gear),
  55   IBM XL C++ (Visual Age C++), and C++0x.
  56 * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
  57 * Potentially incompatible changes: disables the harmful 'make install'
  58   command in autotools.
  59 
  60 Changes for 1.5.0:
  61 
  62  * New feature: assertions can be safely called in multiple threads
  63    where the pthreads library is available.
  64  * New feature: predicates used inside EXPECT_TRUE() and friends
  65    can now generate custom failure messages.
  66  * New feature: Google Test can now be compiled as a DLL.
  67  * New feature: fused source files are included.
  68  * New feature: prints help when encountering unrecognized Google Test flags.
  69  * Experimental feature: CMake build script (requires CMake 2.6.4+).
  70  * Experimental feature: the Pump script for meta programming.
  71  * double values streamed to an assertion are printed with enough precision
  72    to differentiate any two different values.
  73  * Google Test now works on Solaris and AIX.
  74  * Build and test script improvements.
  75  * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.
  76 
  77  Potentially breaking changes:
  78 
  79  * Stopped supporting VC++ 7.1 with exceptions disabled.
  80  * Dropped support for 'make install'.
  81 
  82 Changes for 1.4.0:
  83 
  84  * New feature: the event listener API
  85  * New feature: test shuffling
  86  * New feature: the XML report format is closer to junitreport and can
  87    be parsed by Hudson now.
  88  * New feature: when a test runs under Visual Studio, its failures are
  89    integrated in the IDE.
  90  * New feature: /MD(d) versions of VC++ projects.
  91  * New feature: elapsed time for the tests is printed by default.
  92  * New feature: comes with a TR1 tuple implementation such that Boost
  93    is no longer needed for Combine().
  94  * New feature: EXPECT_DEATH_IF_SUPPORTED macro and friends.
  95  * New feature: the Xcode project can now produce static gtest
  96    libraries in addition to a framework.
  97  * Compatibility fixes for Solaris, Cygwin, minGW, Windows Mobile,
  98    Symbian, gcc, and C++Builder.
  99  * Bug fixes and implementation clean-ups.

 113    machines (requires support from the test runner).
