- Add a When() synonym for Context() (#386) [747514b, 7484dad, 7354a07, dd826c8]
- Re-add noisySkippings flag [652e15c]
- Allow coverage to be displayed for focused specs (#367) [11459a8]
- Handle -outputdir flag (#364) [228e3a8]
- Handle -coverprofile flag (#355) [43392d5]
### Fixes
- When using custom reporters register the custom reporters *before* the default reporter. This allows users to see the output of any print statements in their customer reporters. (#365) [8382b23]
- When running a test and calculating the coverage using the `-coverprofile` and `-outputdir` flags, Ginkgo fails with an error if the directory does not exist. This is due to an [issue in go 1.10](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/24588) (#446) [b36a6e0]
-`ginkgo` now provides a hint if you accidentally forget to run `ginkgo bootstrap` to generate a `*_suite_test.go` file that actually invokes the Ginkgo test runner. [#345](https://github.com/onsi/ginkgo/pull/345)
- thanks to improvements in `go test -c``ginkgo` no longer needs to fix Go's compilation output to ensure compilation errors are expressed relative to the CWD. [#357]
-`ginkgo watch -watchRegExp=...` allows you to specify a custom regular expression to watch. Only files matching the regular expression are watched for changes (the default is `\.go$`) [#356]
-`ginkgo` now always emits compilation output. Previously, only failed compilation output was printed out. [#277]
-`ginkgo -requireSuite` now fails the test run if there are `*_test.go` files but `go test` fails to detect any tests. Typically this means you forgot to run `ginkgo bootstrap` to generate a suite file. [#344]
-`ginkgo -timeout=DURATION` allows you to adjust the timeout for the entire test suite (default is 24 hours) [#248]
## 1.3.0 3/28/2017
Improvements:
- Significantly improved parallel test distribution. Now instead of pre-sharding test cases across workers (which can result in idle workers and poor test performance) Ginkgo uses a shared queue to keep all workers busy until all tests are complete. This improves test-time performance and consistency.
-`Skip(message)` can be used to skip the current test.
- Added `extensions/table` - a Ginkgo DSL for [Table Driven Tests](http://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/#table-driven-tests)
- Add `GinkgoRandomSeed()` - shorthand for `config.GinkgoConfig.RandomSeed`
- Support for retrying flaky tests with `--flakeAttempts`
-`ginkgo ./...` now recurses as you'd expect
- Added `Specify` a synonym for `It`
- Support colorise on Windows
- Broader support for various go compilation flags in the `ginkgo` CLI
Bug Fixes:
- Ginkgo tests now fail when you `panic(nil)` (#167)
## 1.2.0 5/31/2015
Improvements
-`ginkgo -coverpkg` calls down to `go test -coverpkg` (#160)
-`ginkgo -afterSuiteHook COMMAND` invokes the passed-in `COMMAND` after a test suite completes (#152)
- Relaxed requirement for Go 1.4+. `ginkgo` now works with Go v1.3+ (#166)
## 1.2.0-beta
Ginkgo now requires Go 1.4+
Improvements:
- Call reporters in reverse order when announcing spec completion -- allows custom reporters to emit output before the default reporter does.
- Improved focus behavior. Now, this:
```golang
FDescribe("Some describe", func() {
It("A", func() {})
FIt("B", func() {})
})
```
will run `B` but *not*`A`. This tends to be a common usage pattern when in the thick of writing and debugging tests.
- When `SIGINT` is received, Ginkgo will emit the contents of the `GinkgoWriter` before running the `AfterSuite`. Useful for debugging stuck tests.
- When `--progress` is set, Ginkgo will write test progress (in particular, Ginkgo will say when it is about to run a BeforeEach, AfterEach, It, etc...) to the `GinkgoWriter`. This is useful for debugging stuck tests and tests that generate many logs.
- Improved output when an error occurs in a setup or teardown block.
- When `--dryRun` is set, Ginkgo will walk the spec tree and emit to its reporter *without* actually running anything. Best paired with `-v` to understand which specs will run in which order.
- Add `By` to help document long `It`s. `By` simply writes to the `GinkgoWriter`.
- Add support for precompiled tests:
-`ginkgo build <path-to-package>` will now compile the package, producing a file named `package.test`
- The compiled `package.test` file can be run directly. This runs the tests in series.
- To run precompiled tests in parallel, you can run: `ginkgo -p package.test`
- Support `bootstrap`ping and `generate`ing [Agouti](http://agouti.org) specs.
-`ginkgo generate` and `ginkgo bootstrap` now honor the package name already defined in a given directory
- The `ginkgo` CLI ignores `SIGQUIT`. Prevents its stack dump from interlacing with the underlying test suite's stack dump.
- The `ginkgo` CLI now compiles tests into a temporary directory instead of the package directory. This necessitates upgrading to Go v1.4+.
-`ginkgo -notify` now works on Linux
Bug Fixes:
- If --skipPackages is used and all packages are skipped, Ginkgo should exit 0.
- Fix tempfile leak when running in parallel
- Fix incorrect failure message when a panic occurs during a parallel test run
- Fixed an issue where a pending test within a focused context (or a focused test within a pending context) would skip all other tests.
- Be more consistent about handling SIGTERM as well as SIGINT
- When interupted while concurrently compiling test suites in the background, Ginkgo now cleans up the compiled artifacts.
- Fixed a long standing bug where `ginkgo -p` would hang if a process spawned by one of the Ginkgo parallel nodes does not exit. (Hooray!)
## 1.1.0 (8/2/2014)
No changes, just dropping the beta.
## 1.1.0-beta (7/22/2014)
New Features:
-`ginkgo watch` now monitors packages *and their dependencies* for changes. The depth of the dependency tree can be modified with the `-depth` flag.
- Test suites with a programmatic focus (`FIt`, `FDescribe`, etc...) exit with non-zero status code, even when they pass. This allows CI systems to detect accidental commits of focused test suites.
-`ginkgo -p` runs the testsuite in parallel with an auto-detected number of nodes.
-`ginkgo -tags=TAG_LIST` passes a list of tags down to the `go build` command.
-`ginkgo --failFast` aborts the test suite after the first failure.
-`ginkgo generate file_1 file_2` can take multiple file arguments.
- Ginkgo now summarizes any spec failures that occured at the end of the test run.
-`ginkgo --randomizeSuites` will run tests *suites* in random order using the generated/passed-in seed.
Improvements:
-`ginkgo -skipPackage` now takes a comma-separated list of strings. If the *relative path* to a package matches one of the entries in the comma-separated list, that package is skipped.
-`ginkgo --untilItFails` no longer recompiles between attempts.
- Ginkgo now panics when a runnable node (`It`, `BeforeEach`, `JustBeforeEach`, `AfterEach`, `Measure`) is nested within another runnable node. This is always a mistake. Any test suites that panic because of this change should be fixed.
Bug Fixes:
-`ginkgo boostrap` and `ginkgo generate` no longer fail when dealing with `hyphen-separated-packages`.
- parallel specs are now better distributed across nodes - fixed a crashing bug where (for example) distributing 11 tests across 7 nodes would panic
## 1.0.0 (5/24/2014)
New Features:
- Add `GinkgoParallelNode()` - shorthand for `config.GinkgoConfig.ParallelNode`
Improvements:
- When compilation fails, the compilation output is rewritten to present a correct *relative* path. Allows ⌘-clicking in iTerm open the file in your text editor.
-`--untilItFails` and `ginkgo watch` now generate new random seeds between test runs, unless a particular random seed is specified.
Bug Fixes:
-`-cover` now generates a correctly combined coverprofile when running with in parallel with multiple `-node`s.
- Print out the contents of the `GinkgoWriter` when `BeforeSuite` or `AfterSuite` fail.
- Fix all remaining race conditions in Ginkgo's test suite.
## 1.0.0-beta (4/14/2014)
Breaking changes:
-`thirdparty/gomocktestreporter` is gone. Use `GinkgoT()` instead
- Modified the Reporter interface
-`watch` is now a subcommand, not a flag.
DSL changes:
-`BeforeSuite` and `AfterSuite` for setting up and tearing down test suites.
-`AfterSuite` is triggered on interrupt (`^C`) as well as exit.
-`SynchronizedBeforeSuite` and `SynchronizedAfterSuite` for setting up and tearing down singleton resources across parallel nodes.
CLI changes:
-`watch` is now a subcommand, not a flag
-`--nodot` flag can be passed to `ginkgo generate` and `ginkgo bootstrap` to avoid dot imports. This explicitly imports all exported identifiers in Ginkgo and Gomega. Refreshing this list can be done by running `ginkgo nodot`
- Additional arguments can be passed to specs. Pass them after the `--` separator
-`--skipPackage` flag takes a regexp and ignores any packages with package names passing said regexp.
-`--trace` flag prints out full stack traces when errors occur, not just the line at which the error occurs.
