[ANNOUNCEMENT] PHPUnit2-3.0.0alpha7 (alpha) Released.

The new PEAR package PHPUnit2-3.0.0alpha7 (alpha) has been released at http://pear.php.net/. Release notes ------------- + Added support for Mock Objects, inspired by jMock, initially developed by Jan Borsodi and contributed by eZ systems AS. + Added new Code Coverage / Test report generator (invoked through the new --report option of the command-line test runner), loosely based on the layout of LCOV. + Added PHPUnit2_Extensions_OutputTestCase which uses PHP's output buffering to test output. + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_SkippedTest interface and PHPUnit2_Framework_SkippedTestError as its default implementation to mark a test as being skipped. + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertFileExists(), PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertFileNotExists(), PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertArrayHasKey(), PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertArrayNotHasKey(), PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertHasProperty(), and PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertHasNotProperty(). + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertThat() which evaluates arbitrary constraints, based upon the new PHPUnit2_Framework_Constraint infrastructure. + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::markTestIncomplete() and PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::markTestSkipped() to mark a test as being incomplete or skipped, respectively. + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::getNonPublicProperty() method to read non-public properties from objects. + Added PHPUnit2_Framework_TestCase::iniSet() as a wrapper for the ini_set() function that automatically resets the modified php.ini setting to its original value after the test is run. + Added a TestListener that talks via a socket connection to Eclipse, developed by Steven Balthazor. + Added a TestListener that generates a map of the executed tests in GraphViz markup. + Added a TestListener that generates a logfile of the test execution using the Test Anything Protocol (TAP). + Added and implementation of RecursiveIterator, PHPUnit2_Framework_TestSuiteIterator, that can iterate PHPUnit2_Framework_TestSuite objects. + Added the "--repeat <times>" command-line option to the TextUI test runner to run the test(s) repeatedly. * PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertContains() and PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::assertNotContains() can now work on strings. * PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure has been refactored into PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure, PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure_Array, PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure_Object, PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure_Scalar, PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure_String, and PHPUnit2_Framework_ComparisonFailure_Type to improve discrepancy visualization, initially developed by Jan Borsodi and contributed by eZ systems AS. * Changed PHPUnit2_TextUI_ResultPrinter::printHeader() to sanely format the time elapsed as MM:SS. * PHPUnit2_Runner_IncludePathTestCollector can now utilize a FilterIterator. * PHPUnit2_Framework_TestResult no longer registers an error handler if the code under test already registered one. * The PHPUnit2_Framework_Test interface now extends and its implementors as well as the PHPUnit2_Framework_TestResult class now implement the Standard PHP Library (SPL)'s Countable interface. * PHPUnit2 now uses the Standard PHP Library (SPL)'s specialized exceptions InvalidArgumentException and RuntimeException instead of the generic Exception exception class. * Implemented RFE #5546: Make filtering and/or filtering on the current file optional. * Implemented RFE #5860: Missing parse errors after lint. * Implemented RFE #5932: Make the PHP syntax check of files optional. * Fixed bug #5053: Problems with global variables. * Fixed bug #5933: PHPUnit2_Framework_TestSuite::addTestFile() and non-working directories. * Fixed bug #6613: AllTests.php have relative include paths that don't work. * Fixed bug #7106: phpunit --skeleton does not seem to handle PEARified names. * Fixed bug #7107: Platform-specific skeleton line endings. * Fixed bug #7373: Unexpected "syntax error" in safe mode. * Fixed bug #7770: TextUI/TestRunner::doSkeleton $skeleton not always an object. - Removed --coverage-data, --coverage-html, and --coverage-text options from the command-line test runner. - Removed PHPUnit2_Framework_Assert::setLooselyTyped(). - Removed dependency on the Benchmark_Timer, Console_Getopt, and PEAR_Config PEAR classes. ! PHP 5.1.4 (or greater) is now required. ! The countTestCases() method of the PHPUnit2_Framework_Test interface has been renamed to count(). ! The runCount() method of the PHPUnit2_Framework_TestResult class has been renamed to count(). ! A new method, addSkippedTest(), has been added to the PHPUnit2_Framework_TestListener interface. ! If you override PHPUnit2_Framework_TestCase::tearDown() in your test case class and use the PHPUnit2_Framework_TestCase::iniSet() method in your test methods you need to call this method explicitly via parent::tearDown().
