To do so, a few dependencies have been imported: * external/bsd/lutok * external/mit/lua * external/public-domain/sqlite * external/public-domain/xz The Kyua framework is the new generation of ATF (Automated Test Framework), it is composed of: * external/bsd/atf * external/bsd/kyua-atf-compat * external/bsd/kyua-cli * external/bsd/kyua-tester * tests Kyua/ATF being written in C++, it depends on libstdc++ which is provided by GCC. As this is not part of the sources, Kyua is only compiled when the native GCC utils are installed. To install Kyua do the following: * In a cross-build enviromnent, add the following to the build.sh commandline: -V MKBINUTILS=yes -V MKGCCCMDS=yes WARNING: At this point the import is still experimental, and not supported on native builds (a.k.a make build).

===========================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.17
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on February 14th, 2013.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf_utils_cat_file, atf_utils_compare_file,
|
|
atf_utils_copy_file, atf_utils_create_file, atf_utils_file_exists,
|
|
atf_utils_fork, atf_utils_grep_file, atf_utils_grep_string,
|
|
atf_utils_readline, atf_utils_redirect and atf_utils_wait utility
|
|
functions to atf-c-api. Documented the already-public
|
|
atf_utils_free_charpp function.
|
|
|
|
* Added the cat_file, compare_file, copy_file, create_file, file_exists,
|
|
fork, grep_collection, grep_file, grep_string, redirect and wait
|
|
functions to the atf::utils namespace of atf-c++-api. These are
|
|
wrappers around the same functions added to the atf-c-api library.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_CHECK_MATCH, ATF_CHECK_MATCH_MSG, ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH and
|
|
ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH_MSG macros to atf-c to simplify the validation of a
|
|
string against a regular expression.
|
|
|
|
* Miscellaneous fixes for manpage typos and compilation problems with
|
|
clang.
|
|
|
|
* Added caching of the results of those configure tests that rely on
|
|
executing a test program. This should help crossbuild systems by
|
|
providing a mechanism to pre-specify what the results should be.
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/45690: Make atf-report convert any non-printable characters to
|
|
a plain-text representation (matching their corresponding hexadecimal
|
|
entities) in XML output files. This is to prevent the output of test
|
|
cases from breaking xsltproc later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.16
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on July 10th, 2012.
|
|
|
|
* Added a --enable-tools flag to configure to request the build of the
|
|
deprecated ATF tools, whose build is now disabled by default. In order
|
|
to continue running tests, you should migrate to Kyua instead of enabling
|
|
the build of the deprecated tools. The kyua-atf-compat package provides
|
|
transitional compatibility versions of atf-run and atf-report built on
|
|
top of Kyua.
|
|
|
|
* Tweaked the ATF_TEST_CASE macro of atf-c++ so that the compiler can
|
|
detect defined but unused test cases.
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/45859: Fixed some XSLT bugs that resulted in the tc-time and
|
|
tp-time XML tags leaking into the generated HTML file. Also improved
|
|
the CSS file slightly to correct alignment and color issues with the
|
|
timestamps column.
|
|
|
|
* Optimized atf-c++/macros.hpp so that GNU G++ consumes less memory during
|
|
compilation with GNU G++.
|
|
|
|
* Flipped the default to building shared libraries for atf-c and atf-c++,
|
|
and started versioning them. As a side-effect, this removes the
|
|
--enable-unstable-shared flag from configure that appears to not work any
|
|
more (under NetBSD). Additionally, some distributions require the use of
|
|
shared libraries for proper dependency tracking (e.g. Fedora), so it is
|
|
better if we do the right versioning upstream.
|
|
|
|
* Project hosting moved from an adhoc solution (custom web site and
|
|
Monotone repository) to Google Code (standard wiki and Git). ATF now
|
|
lives in a subcomponent of the Kyua project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.15
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on January 16th, 2012.
|
|
|
|
* Respect stdin in atf-check. The previous release silenced stdin for any
|
|
processes spawned by atf, not only test programs, which caused breakage
|
|
in tests that pipe data through atf-check.
|
|
|
|
* Performance improvements to atf-sh.
|
|
|
|
* Enabled detection of unused parameters and variables in the code and
|
|
fixed all warnings.
|
|
|
|
* Changed the behavior of "developer mode". Compiler warnings are now
|
|
enabled unconditionally regardless of whether we are in developer mode or
|
|
not; developer mode is now only used to perform strict warning checks and
|
|
to enable assertions. Additionally, developer mode is now only
|
|
automatically enabled when building from the repository, not for formal
|
|
releases.
|
|
|
|
* Added new Autoconf M4 macros (ATF_ARG_WITH, ATF_CHECK_C and
|
|
ATF_CHECK_CXX) to provide a consistent way of defining a --with-arg flag
|
|
in configure scripts and detecting the presence of any of the ATF
|
|
bindings. Note that ATF_CHECK_SH was already introduced in 0.14, but it
|
|
has now been modified to also honor --with-atf if instantiated.
|
|
|
|
* Added timing support to atf-run / atf-report.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for a 'require.memory' property, to specify the minimum
|
|
amount of physical memory needed by the test case to yield valid results.
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/45690: Force an ISO-8859-1 encoding in the XML files generated by
|
|
atf-report so that invalid data in the output of test cases does not
|
|
mangle our report.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.14
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on June 14th, 2011.
|
|
|
|
* Added a pkg-config file for atf-sh and an aclocal file to ease the
|
|
detection of atf-sh from autoconf scripts.
|
|
|
|
* Made the default test case body defined by atf_sh fail. This is to
|
|
ensure that test cases are properly defined in test programs and helps
|
|
in catching typos in the names of the body functions.
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/44882: Made atf-run connect the stdin of test cases to /dev/zero.
|
|
This provides more consistent results with "normal" execution (in
|
|
particular, when tests are executed detached from a terminal).
|
|
|
|
* Made atf-run hardcode TZ=UTC for test cases. It used to undefine TZ, but
|
|
that does not take into account that libc determines the current timezone
|
|
from a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* All test programs will now print a warning when they are not run through
|
|
atf-run(1) stating that this is unsupported and may deliver incorrect
|
|
results.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for the 'require.files' test-case property. This allows
|
|
test cases to specify installed files that must be present for the test
|
|
case to run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.13
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on March 31st, 2011.
|
|
|
|
This is the first release after the creation of the Kyua project, a more
|
|
modular and reliable replacement for ATF. From now on, ATF will change to
|
|
accomodate the transition to this new codebase, but ATF will still continue
|
|
to see development in the short/medium term. Check out the project page at
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/kyua/ for more details.
|
|
|
|
The changes in this release are:
|
|
|
|
* Added support to run the tests with the Kyua runtime engine (kyua-cli), a
|
|
new package that aims to replace atf-run and atf-report. The ATF tests
|
|
can be run with the new system by issuing a 'make installcheck-kyua' from
|
|
the top-level directory of the project (assuming the 'kyua' binary is
|
|
available during the configuration stage of ATF).
|
|
|
|
* atf-run and atf-report are now in maintenance mode (but *not* deprecated
|
|
yet!). Kyua already implements a new, much more reliable runtime engine
|
|
that provides similar features to these tools. That said, it is not
|
|
complete yet so all development efforts should go towards it.
|
|
|
|
* If GDB is installed, atf-run dumps the stack trace of crashing test
|
|
programs in an attempt to aid debugging. Contributed by Antti Kantee.
|
|
|
|
* Reverted default timeout change in previous release and reset its value
|
|
to 5 minutes. This was causing several issues, specially when running
|
|
the existing NetBSD test suite in qemu.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the 'match' output checker in atf-check to properly validate the
|
|
last line of a file even if it does not have a newline.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_REQUIRE_IN and ATF_REQUIRE_NOT_IN macros to atf-c++ to
|
|
check for the presence (or lack thereof) of an element in a collection.
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/44176: Fixed a race condition in atf-run that would crash atf-run
|
|
when the cleanup of a test case triggered asynchronous modifications to
|
|
its work directory (e.g. killing a daemon process that cleans up a pid
|
|
file in the work directory).
|
|
|
|
* PR bin/44301: Fixed the sample XSLT file to report bogus test programs
|
|
instead of just listing them as having 0 test cases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.12
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on November 7th, 2010.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_REQUIRE_THROW_RE to atf-c++, which is the same as
|
|
ATF_REQUIRE_THROW but allows checking for the validity of the exception's
|
|
error message by means of a regular expression.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH to atf-c++, which allows checking for a
|
|
regular expression match in a string.
|
|
|
|
* Changed the default timeout for test cases from 5 minutes to 30 seconds.
|
|
30 seconds is long enough for virtually all tests to complete, and 5
|
|
minutes is a way too long pause in a test suite where a single test case
|
|
stalls.
|
|
|
|
* Deprecated the use.fs property. While this seemed like a good idea in
|
|
the first place to impose more control on what test cases can do, it
|
|
turns out to be bad. First, use.fs=false prevents bogus test cases
|
|
from dumping core so after-the-fact debugging is harder. Second,
|
|
supporting use.fs adds a lot of unnecessary complexity. atf-run will
|
|
now ignore any value provided to use.fs and will allow test cases to
|
|
freely access the file system if they wish to.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf_tc_get_config_var_as_{bool,long}{,_wd} functions to the atf-c
|
|
library. The 'text' module became private in 0.11 but was being used
|
|
externally to simplify the parsing of configuration variables.
|
|
|
|
* Made atf-run recognize the 'unprivileged-user' configuration variable
|
|
and automatically drop root privileges when a test case sets
|
|
require.user=unprivileged. Note that this is, by no means, done for
|
|
security purposes; this is just for user convenience; tests should, in
|
|
general, not be blindly run as root in the first place.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.11
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on October 20th, 2010.
|
|
|
|
* The ATF_CHECK* macros in atf-c++ were renamed to ATF_REQUIRE* to match
|
|
their counterparts in atf-c.
|
|
|
|
* Clearly separated the modules in atf-c that are supposed to be public
|
|
from those that are implementation details. The header files for the
|
|
internal modules are not installed any more.
|
|
|
|
* Made the atf-check tool private. It is only required by atf-sh and being
|
|
public has the danger of causing confusion. Also, making it private
|
|
simplifies the public API of atf.
|
|
|
|
* Changed atf-sh to enable per-command error checking (set -e) by default.
|
|
This catches many cases in which a test case is broken but it is not
|
|
reported as such because execution continues.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the XSTL and CSS stylesheets to support expected failures.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.10
|
|
***********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on July 2nd, 2010.
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous features
|
|
|
|
* Added expected failures support to test cases and atf-run. These
|
|
include, for example, expected clean exits, expected reception of fatal
|
|
signals, expected timeouts and expected errors in condition checks.
|
|
These statuses can be used to denote test cases that are known to fail
|
|
due to a bug in the code they are testing. atf-report reports these
|
|
tests separately but they do not count towards the failed test cases
|
|
amount.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_CHECK_ERRNO and ATF_REQUIRE_ERRNO to the C library to
|
|
allow easy checking of call failures that update errno.
|
|
|
|
* Added the has.cleanup meta-data property to test caes that specifies
|
|
whether the test case has a cleanup routine or not; its value is
|
|
automatically set. This property is read by atf-run to know if it has to
|
|
run the cleanup routine; skipping this run for every test case
|
|
significantly speeds up the run time of test suites.
|
|
|
|
* Reversed the order of the ATF_CHECK_THROW macro in the C++ binding to
|
|
take the expected exception as the first argument and the statement to
|
|
execute as the second argument.
|
|
|
|
Changes in atf-check
|
|
|
|
* Changed atf-check to support negating the status and output checks by
|
|
prefixing them with not- and added support to specify multiple checkers
|
|
for stdout and stderr, not only one.
|
|
|
|
* Added the match output checker to atf-check to look for regular
|
|
expressions in the stdout and stderr of commands.
|
|
|
|
* Modified the exit checks in atf-check to support checking for the
|
|
reception of signals.
|
|
|
|
Code simplifications and cleanups
|
|
|
|
* Removed usage messages from test programs to simplify the
|
|
implementation of every binding by a significant amount. They just now
|
|
refer the user to the appropriate manual page and do not attempt to wrap
|
|
lines on terminal boundaries. Test programs are not supposed to be run
|
|
by users directly so this minor interface regression is not important.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the atf-format internal utility, which is unused after the
|
|
change documented above.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the atf-cleanup internal utility. It has been unused since the
|
|
test case isolation was moved to atf-run in 0.8
|
|
|
|
* Splitted the Makefile.am into smaller files for easier maintenance and
|
|
dropped the use of M4. Only affects users building from the repository
|
|
sources.
|
|
|
|
* Intermixed tests with the source files in the source tree to provide
|
|
them more visibility and easier access. The tests directory is gone from
|
|
the source tree and tests are now suffixed by _test, not prefixed by t_.
|
|
|
|
* Simplifications to the atf-c library: removed the io, tcr and ui
|
|
modules as they had become unnecessary after all simplifications
|
|
introduced since the 0.8 release.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the application/X-atf-tcr format introduced in 0.8 release.
|
|
Tests now print a much simplified format that is easy to parse and nicer
|
|
to read by end users. As a side effect, the default for test cases is
|
|
now to print their results to stdout unless otherwise stated by providing
|
|
the -r flag.
|
|
|
|
* Removed XML distribution documents and replaced them with plain-text
|
|
documents. They provided little value and introduced a lot of complexity
|
|
to the build system.
|
|
|
|
* Simplified the output of atf-version by not attempting to print a
|
|
revision number when building form a distfile. Makes the build system
|
|
easier to maintain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.9
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on June 3rd, 2010.
|
|
|
|
* Added atf-sh, an interpreter to process test programs written using
|
|
the shell API. This is not really a shell interpreter by itself though:
|
|
it is just a wrapper around the system shell that eases the loading of
|
|
the necessary ATF libraries.
|
|
|
|
* Removed atf-compile in favour of atf-sh.
|
|
|
|
* Added the use.fs metadata property to test case, which is used to
|
|
specify which test cases require file system access. This is to
|
|
highlight dependencies on external resources more clearly and to speed up
|
|
the execution of test suites by skipping the creation of many unnecessary
|
|
work directories.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed test programs to get a sane default value for their source
|
|
directory. This means that it should not be necessary any more to pass
|
|
-s when running test programs that do not live in the current directory.
|
|
|
|
* Defining test case headers became optional. This is trivial to achieve
|
|
in shell-based tests but a bit ugly in C and C++. In C, use the new
|
|
ATF_TC_WITHOUT_HEAD macro to define the test case, and in C++ use
|
|
ATF_TEST_CASE_WITHOUT_HEAD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.8
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on May 7th, 2010.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs no longer run several test cases in a row. The execution
|
|
of a test program now requires a test case name, and that single test
|
|
case is executed. To execute several test cases, use the atf-run utility
|
|
as usual.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs no longer fork a subprocess to isolate the execution of
|
|
test cases. They run the test case code in-process, and a crash of the
|
|
test case will result in a crash of the test program. This is to ease
|
|
debugging of faulty test cases.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs no longer isolate their test cases. This means that they
|
|
will not create temporary directories nor sanitize the environment any
|
|
more. Yes: running a test case that depends on system state by hand will
|
|
most likely yield different results depending on where (machine,
|
|
directory, user environment, etc.) it is run. Isolation has been moved
|
|
to atf-run.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs no longer print a cryptic format (application/X-atf-tcs)
|
|
on a special file channel. They can now print whatever they want on the
|
|
screen. Because test programs can now only run one test case every time,
|
|
providing controlled output is not necessary any more.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs no longer write their status into a special file
|
|
descriptor. Instead, they create a file with the results, which is later
|
|
parsed by atf-run. This changes the semantics of the -r flag.
|
|
|
|
* atf-run has been adjusted to perform the test case isolation. As a
|
|
result, there is now a single canonical place that implements the
|
|
isolation of test caes. In previous releases, the three language
|
|
bindings (C, C++ and shell) had to be kept in sync with each other (read:
|
|
not a nice thing to do at all). As a side effect of this change, writing
|
|
bindings for other languages will be much, much easier from now on.
|
|
|
|
* atf-run forks test programs on a test case basis, instead of on a test
|
|
program basis as it did before. This is to provide the test case
|
|
isolation that was before implemented by the test programs themselves.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the atf-exec tool. This was used to implement test case
|
|
isolation in atf-sh, but it is now unnecessary.
|
|
|
|
* It is now optional to define the descr meta-data property. It has been
|
|
proven to be mostly useless, because test cases often carry a descriptive
|
|
name of their own.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.7
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on December 22nd, 2009.
|
|
|
|
* Added build-time checks to atf-c and atf-c++. A binding for atf-sh
|
|
will come later.
|
|
|
|
* Migrated all build-time checks for header files to proper ATF tests.
|
|
This demonstrates the use of the new feature described above.
|
|
|
|
* Added an internal API for child process management.
|
|
|
|
* Converted all plain-text distribution documents to a Docbook canonical
|
|
version, and include pre-generated plain text and HTML copies in the
|
|
distribution file.
|
|
|
|
* Simplified the contents of the Makefile.am by regenerating it from a
|
|
canonical Makefile.am.m4 source. As a side-effect, some dependency
|
|
specifications were fixed.
|
|
|
|
* Migrated all checks from the check target to installcheck, as these
|
|
require ATF to be installed.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed sign comparison mismatches triggered by the now-enabled
|
|
-Wsign-compare.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed many memory and object leaks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.6
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on January 18th, 2009.
|
|
|
|
* Make atf-exec be able to kill its child process after a certain period
|
|
of time; this is controlled through the new -t option.
|
|
|
|
* Change atf-sh to use atf-exec's -t option to control the test case's
|
|
timeouts, instead of doing it internally. Same behavior as before, but
|
|
noticeably faster.
|
|
|
|
* atf-exec's -g option and atf-killpg are gone due to the previous
|
|
change.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf-check(1) tool, a program that executes a given command
|
|
and checks its exit code against a known value and allows the management
|
|
of stdout and stderr in multiple ways. This replaces the previous
|
|
atf_check function in the atf-sh library and exposes this functionality
|
|
to both atf-c and atf-c++.
|
|
|
|
* Added the ATF_REQUIRE family of macros to the C interface. These help
|
|
in checking for fatal test conditions. The old ATF_CHECK macros now
|
|
perform non-fatal checks only. I.e. by using ATF_CHECK, the test case
|
|
can now continue its execution and the failures will not be reported
|
|
until the end of the whole run.
|
|
|
|
* Extended the amount of ATF_CHECK_* C macros with new ones to provide
|
|
more features to the developer. These also have their corresponding
|
|
counterparts in the ATF_REQUIRE_* family. The new macros (listing the
|
|
suffixes only) are: _EQ (replaces _EQUAL), _EQ_MSG, _STREQ and
|
|
_STREQ_MSG.
|
|
|
|
|

Changes in version 0.5

Experimental version released on May 1st, 2008.
|
|
|
|
* Clauses 3 and 4 of the BSD license used by the project were dropped.
|
|
All the code is now under a 2-clause BSD license compatible with the GNU
|
|
General Public License (GPL).
|
|
|
|
* Added a C-only binding so that binary test programs do not need to be
|
|
tied to C++ at all. This binding is now known as the atf-c library.
|
|
|
|
* Renamed the C++ binding to atf-c++ for consistency with the new atf-c.
|
|
|
|
* Renamed the POSIX shell binding to atf-sh for consistency with the new
|
|
atf-c and atf-c++.
|
|
|
|
* Added a -w flag to test programs through which it is possible to
|
|
specify the work directory to be used. This was possible in prior
|
|
releases by defining the workdir configuration variable (-v workdir=...),
|
|
but was a conceptually incorrect mechanism.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs now preserve the execution order of test cases when they
|
|
are given in the command line. Even those mentioned more than once are
|
|
executed multiple times to comply with the user's requests.

Changes in version 0.4
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on February 4th, 2008.
|
|
|
|
* Added two new manual pages, atf-c++-api and atf-sh-api, describing the
|
|
C++ and POSIX shell interfaces used to write test programs.
|
|
|
|
* Added a pkg-config file, useful to get the flags to build against the
|
|
C++ library or to easily detect the presence of ATF.
|
|
|
|
* Added a way for test cases to require a specific architecture and/or
|
|
machine type through the new 'require.arch' and 'require.machine'
|
|
meta-data properties, respectively.
|
|
|
|
* Added the 'timeout' property to test cases, useful to set an
|
|
upper-bound limit for the test's run time and thus prevent global test
|
|
program stalls due to the test case's misbehavior.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf-exec(1) internal utility, used to execute a command
|
|
after changing the process group it belongs to.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf-killpg(1) internal utility, used to kill process groups.
|
|
|
|
* Multiple portability fixes. Of special interest, full support for
|
|
SunOS (Solaris Express Developer Edition 2007/09) using the Sun Studio 12
|
|
C++ compiler.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a serious bug that prevented atf-run(1) from working at all
|
|
under Fedora 8 x86_64. Due to the nature of the bug, other platforms
|
|
were likely affected too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.3
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on November 11th, 2007.
|
|
|
|
* Added XML output support to atf-report. This is accompanied by a DTD
|
|
for the format's structure and sample XSLT/CSS files to post-process this
|
|
output and convert it to a plain HTML report.
|
|
|
|
* Changed atf-run to add system information to the report it generates.
|
|
This is currently used by atf-report's XML output only, and is later
|
|
printed in the HTML reports in a nice and useful summary table. The user
|
|
and system administrator are allowed to tune this feature by means of
|
|
hooks.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the test cases' 'isolated' property. This was intended to
|
|
avoid touching the file system at all when running the related test case,
|
|
but this has not been true for a long while: some control files are
|
|
unconditionally required for several purposes, and we cannot easily get
|
|
rid of them. This way we remove several critical and delicate pieces of
|
|
code.
|
|
|
|
* Improved atf-report's CSV output format to include information about
|
|
test programs too.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the tests that used atf-compile to not require this tool as a
|
|
helper. Avoids systems without build-time utilities to skip many tests
|
|
that could otherwise be run. (E.g. NetBSD without the comp.tgz set
|
|
installed.)
|
|
|
|
* Many general cleanups: Fixed many pieces of code marked as ugly and/or
|
|
incomplete.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.2
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on September 20th, 2007.
|
|
|
|
* Test cases now get a known umask on entry.
|
|
|
|
* atf-run now detects many unexpected failures caused by test programs and
|
|
reports them as bogus tests. atf-report is able to handle these new
|
|
errors and nicely reports them to the user.
|
|
|
|
* All the data formats read and written by the tools have been
|
|
documented and cleaned up. These include those grammars that define how
|
|
the different components communicate with each other as well as the
|
|
format of files written by the developers and users: the Atffiles and the
|
|
configuration files.
|
|
|
|
* Added the atf-version tool, a utility that displays information about
|
|
the currently installed version of ATF.
|
|
|
|
* Test cases can now define an optional cleanup routine to undo their
|
|
actions regardless of their exit status.
|
|
|
|
* atf-report now summarizes the list of failed (bogus) test programs
|
|
when using the ticker output format.
|
|
|
|
* Test programs now capture some termination signals and clean up any
|
|
temporary files before exiting the program.
|
|
|
|
* Multiple bug fixes and improvements all around.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in version 0.1
|
|
**********************
|
|
|
|
Experimental version released on August 20th, 2007.
|
|
|
|
* First public version. This was released coinciding with the end of the
|
|
Google Summer of Code 2007 program.
