minitest version 5.0.2 has been released!

2013-05-20T15:46:03-07:00

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

Comparing to rspec:

rspec is a testing DSL. minitest is ruby.

-- Adam Hawkins, "Bow Before MiniTest"

minitest doesn’t reinvent anything that ruby already provides, like: classes, modules, inheritance, methods. This means you only have to learn ruby to use minitest and all of your regular OO practices like extract-method refactorings still apply.

Changes:

5.0.2 / 2013-05-20

3 bug fixes:
- Gem.find_files is smarter than I remember… cause I wrote it that way. sigh I’m getting old.
- Pride wasn’t doing puts through its #io. (tmiller/tenderlove)
- Replaced Runnable#dup and Test#dup with marshal_dump/load. Too many problems cropping up on untested rails code. (tenderlove/rubys)

In your git config, set the key omnifocus-github.accounts to a space separated list of github accounts.

git config --global omnifocus-github.accounts "github myghe"

For each account API end point and authentication information are should be stored in the git config under a key matching the account. For example:

git config --global github.user me
git config --global github.password mypassword
git config --global myghe.api https://ghe.mydomain.com/api/v3
git config --global myghe.token 1a2b3c4d5e6f7e8d

For each account can you specify the following parameters:

api - specify an API endpoint other than https://api.github.com. This is so you can point this at your Github Enterprise endpoint.
user, password - A username and password pair for Basic http authentication.
token - An OAuth bearer token for OAuth workflows.

If both a token and a username and password are supplied, the token is used.

Changes:

Changes:

5.0.0 / 2013-05-10

Oh god… here we go…

Minitest 5:

Deaths in the family:

MiniTest.runner is dead. No more manager objects.
MiniTest::Unit#record is dead. Use a Reporter instance instead.
MiniTest::Unit.run* is dead. Runnable things are responsible for their own runs.
MiniTest::Unit.output is dead. No more centralized IO.

Major (oft incompatible) changes:

Renamed MiniTest to Minitest. Your pinkies will thank me. (aliased to MiniTest)
Removed MiniTest::Unit entirely. No more manager objects.
Added Minitest::Runnable. Everything minitest can run subclasses this.
Renamed MiniTest::Unit::TestCase to Minitest::Test (subclassing Runnable).
Added Minitest::Benchmark.
- Your benchmarks need to move to their own subclass.
- Benchmarks using the spec DSL have to have “Bench” somewhere in their describe.
MiniTest::Unit.after_tests moved to Minitest.after_tests
MiniTest::Unit.autorun is now Minitest.autorun. Just require minitest/autorun pls.
Removed ParallelEach#grep since it isn’t used anywhere.
Renamed Runnable#name to Runnable#name (but uses @NAME internally).
Runnable#run needs to return self. Allows for swapping of results as needed.

Minor moves:

Moved Assertions module to minitest/assertions.rb
Moved Expectations module to minitest/expectations.rb
Moved Test to minitest/test.rb
Moved everything else in minitest/unit.rb to minitest.rb
minitest/unit.rb is now just a small (user-test only) compatibility layer.
Moved most of minitest/pride into minitest/pride_plugin.
minitest/pride now just activates pride.
Moved ParallelEach under Minitest.

Additions:

Added a plugin system that can extend command-line options.
Added Minitest.extensions.
Added Minitest.reporter (only available during startup).
Added Minitest.run(args). This is the very top of any Minitest run.
Added Minitest::Reporter. Everything minitest can report goes through here.
- Minitest.reporter is a composite so you can add your own.
Added Minitest::CompositeReporter. Much easier to extend with your own reporters.
Added UnexpectedError, an Assertion subclass, to wrap up errors.
Minitest::Test#run is now freakin’ beautiful. 47 -> 17 loc

Other:

Removed Object.infect_with_assertions (it was already dead code).
Runnables are responsible for knowing their result_code (eg “.” or “F”).
Minitest.autorun now returns boolean, not exit code.
Added FAQ entry for extending via modules. (phiggins)
Implement Runnable#dup to cleanse state back to test results. Helps with serialization. pair:tenderlove
Moved ParallelEach under Minitest.
Runnable#run needs to return self. Allows for swapping of results as needed.
Minitest.init_plugins passes down options.
Minitest.load_plugins only loads once.
Fixed minitest/pride to work with rake test loader again. (tmiller)
Added count/size to ParallelEach to fix use w/in stdlib’s test/unit. :( (btaitelb)

Voodoo:

Removed mutex from minitest.rb (phiggins)
Removed mutex from test.rb (phiggins)
Removed Minitest::Reporter.synchronize (phiggins)
Removed Minitest::Test.synchronize (phiggins)
Upon loading minitest/parallel_each, record, capture_io and capture_subprocess_io are doped with synchronization code. (phiggins)

Changes:

4.7.4 / 2013-05-01

This is probably the last release of the 4.x series. It will be merged to ruby and will be put into maintenance mode there.

I’m not set in stone on this, but at this point further development of minitest (5+) will be gem-only. It is just too hard to work w/in ruby-core w/ test-unit compatibility holding minitest development back.

2 minor enhancements:
- Added count/size to ParallelEach to fix use w/in stdlib’s test/unit. :( (btaitelb)
- Allow disabling of info_signal handler in runner. (erikh)

minitest-macruby version 1.0.1 has been released!

2013-04-22T19:03:58-07:00

minitest-macruby provides extensions to minitest for macruby UI testing. It provides a framework to test GUI apps in a live instance. Documentation and examples are light at the moment as I’ve just thrown this together. Suggestions for extensions are very welcome!

Currently it provides the following methods in minitest’s assertions:

self.run_macruby_tests
find_ui_menu(*path)
find_ui_menu_items menu
assert_ui_menu menu, *items
find_ui_menu_item(*path)
assert_ui_action obj, target, action, key = nil
assert_ui_binding item, binding_name, target, path

Changes:

1.0.1 / 2013-04-22

minitest-debugger version 1.0.1 has been released!

2013-04-22T18:56:57-07:00

This is a stupid simple example of how easy it is to make a minitest plugin that does something useful. In this case it wraps assert so that failed assertions will drop into the ruby debugger.

Changes:

1.0.1 / 2013-04-22

zenweb version 3.1.1 has been released!

2013-04-18T16:21:04-07:00

Zenweb is a set of classes/tools for organizing and formating a website. It is website oriented rather than webpage oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It is content oriented, rather than style oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It uses a rubygems plugin system to provide a very flexible, and powerful system.

Zenweb 3 was inspired by jekyll. The filesystem layout is similar to jekyll’s layout, but zenweb isn’t focused on blogs. It can do any sort of website just fine.

Zenweb uses rake to handle dependencies. As a result, scanning a website and regenerating incrementally is not just possible, it is blazingly fast.

Changes:

3.1.1 / 2013-04-18

1 bug fix:
- Fixed description on new_page task. (tenderlove)

ZenTest version 4.9.1 has been released!

2013-04-18T16:19:41-07:00

ZenTest provides 4 different tools: zentest, unit_diff, autotest, and multiruby.

zentest scans your target and unit-test code and writes your missing code based on simple naming rules, enabling XP at a much quicker pace. zentest only works with Ruby and Minitest or Test::Unit. There is enough evidence to show that this is still proving useful to users, so it stays.

unit_diff is a command-line filter to diff expected results from actual results and allow you to quickly see exactly what is wrong. Do note that minitest 2.2+ provides an enhanced assert_equal obviating the need for unit_diff

autotest is a continous testing facility meant to be used during development. As soon as you save a file, autotest will run the corresponding dependent tests.

multiruby runs anything you want on multiple versions of ruby. Great for compatibility checking! Use multiruby_setup to manage your installed versions.

Changes:

4.9.1 / 2013-04-18

2 minor enhancements:
- Make banner more explicit about correct test file location. (rue)
- Switched to #failed for calculating red/green hook. (bhenderson)

RubyInline version 3.12.2 has been released!

2013-04-18T16:17:32-07:00

Inline allows you to write foreign code within your ruby code. It automatically determines if the code in question has changed and builds it only when necessary. The extensions are then automatically loaded into the class/module that defines it.

You can even write extra builders that will allow you to write inlined code in any language. Use Inline::C as a template and look at Module#inline for the required API.

Changes:

3.12.2 / 2013-04-18

2 minor enhancements:
- Added #prefix code to MD5 calculation to force rebuilds on non-signature changes.
- Separated out #prefix code from #src.

ruby_parser version 3.1.3 has been released!

2013-04-09T20:13:22-07:00

ruby_parser (RP) is a ruby parser written in pure ruby (utilizing racc–which does by default use a C extension). RP’s output is the same as ParseTree’s output: s-expressions using ruby’s arrays and base types.

As an example:

def conditional1 arg1 return 1 if arg1 == 0 return 0 end

becomes:

s(:defn, :conditional1, s(:args, :arg1), s(:if, s(:call, s(:lvar, :arg1), :==, s(:lit, 0)), s(:return, s(:lit, 1)), nil), s(:return, s(:lit, 0)))

Changes:

3.1.3 / 2013-04-09

2 bug fixes:
- Fixed begin w/ else but no rescue. (whitequark)
- Removed literal stripping from block_append. Not its job.

minitest version 4.7.1 has been released!

2013-04-09T20:10:10-07:00

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/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

"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

Comparing to rspec:

rspec is a testing DSL. minitest is ruby.

-- Adam Hawkins, "Bow Before MiniTest"

Changes:

4.7.1 / 2013-04-09

1 minor enhancement:
- Added FAQ section to README
1 bug fix:
- Fixed bug where guard runs tests bypassing minitest/autorun and an ivar isn’t set right. (darrencauthon)

2013-04-09T17:43:26-07:00

Changes:

2.2.0 / 2013-04-09

2 major enhancements:
- Added –fuzzy (ie copy, paste, & modify) duplication detection.
- Added –liberal, which changes the way prune works to identify more duplication.
12 minor enhancements:
- Added -# to turn off item numbering. Helps with diffs to compare runs over time.
- Added Sexp#+.
- Added Sexp#code_index to specify where *code starts in some sexps.
- Added Sexp#has_code?.
- Added Sexp#initalize_copy to propagate file/line/modified info.
- Added Sexp#modified, #modified=, and #modified?.
- Added Sexp#split_at(n). (Something I’ve wanted in Array for ages).
- Added Sexp#split_code.
- Added mass and diff options to rake debug.
- Added rake run task w/ mass, diff, and liberal options
- Made report’s sort more stable, so I can do better comparison runs.
- Wrapped Sexp#[] to propagate file/line/modified info.
