specs2 3.8.8

Diffable version!

Improvements

The main improvement of this version is the addition of a new typeclass, Diffable, used for typed equality, thanks to the relentless effort of @noam-almog (see #500).

This allows a much better display of differences but also makes equality and differences a "pluggable" behaviour of the typed-equality matchers. You can now implement your equality (ignoring some fields from comparison) or your own rendering of differences.

Map(1 -> 2, 3 -> 4) must be_===(Map(3 -> 1, 1 -> 4)) > Map(1 -> {2 != 4}, 3 -> {4 != 1})

And with an additional dependency on specs2-shapeless, you get a very nice display of case class differences too:

val p1 = Person(44, "me", Address(14, "Best avenue")) val p2 = Person(27, "you", Address(14, "First street")) import org.specs2.matcher.CaseClassDiffs._ p1 ==== p2 > Person(age: 44 != 27, name: 'me' != 'you', address: Address(number: 14, street: 'Best avenue' != 'First street'))

Fixes

core make sure that steps are executed after the previous block of concurrent fragments

core preserve the stacktrace of a Failure when used to define a Matcher with MatcherImplicits

core sequence strictly the effects in a sink in order to avoid possible stack-overflow errors when folding a large number of elements #539

specs2 3.8.7

Maintenance version.

Improvements

core added the must_!== and should_!== operators

core removed the internal dependency to scalaz-stream classes a first step towards removing the dependency on Scalaz

matcher moved TaskMatchers and FuturezMatchers to the specs2-scalaz module

cats the specs2-cats module is deprecated since it only contains XorMatchers now removed from cats

project update scalaz to 7.1.11 (use specs2 version 3.8.7-scalaz-7.1)

project make build Scala 2.13 friendly #532 (thanks to @SethTisue)

project add compatibility with Scalaz 7.3. #531 (thanks to @sellout)

Fixes

core fixed the location of MatchResult with org.specs2.mutable.Spec #533

core fixed the creation of Arguments() when no values are passed so that system properties are still read

core fixed the evaluation of results with the ThrownExpectations trait so that they are always evaluated just once

specs2 3.8.6

Maintenance version.

Improvements

core updated to Scala 2.12.0

core update scalaz to 7.2.7 and 7.1.7 (use specs2 version 3.8.6-scalaz-7.1)

scalacheck updated scalacheck to 0.13.4

core added a trait for removing all Reference implicits in mutable specs: org.specs2.specification.dsl.mutable.NoReferenceDsl #514

Fixes

mockito fixed the evaluation of calls for in order calls when using Mockito. Specified the use of inOrder even for just one mock in the User Guide #518

core fixed the equals method for Location which results in a well-behaved Fragment as a hashmap key and consequently allows to set the location hashCode of a Fragment as a description id in JUnit. This way the Eclipse IDE can distinguish different tests with the same name

html measure and display the total run time of a specification in the console and html #507

guide set sidebar size for narrow screens #499 thanks to Emma Burrows

guide fixed the link to the Mockito project #508 thanks to Emma Burrows

cats update cats to 0.7.2

scalacheck updated scalacheck to 0.13.2

gwt updated shapeless to 2.3.2

core remove all empty text and formatting fragments when filtering by tag and replace with a newline before each example

core limit the scope of ArgProperty to limit the possible impact of the implicit conversions to ArgProperty

scalacheck keep the stacktrace of a Failure created in a ScalaCheck property

matcher-extra renamed a source directory for matcher-extras

project added a link to paypal.me

Fixes

core re-throw Timeout failures in mutable specifications when using FutureMatchers

core evaluate results only once in the Result Monoids #496

core use flattenLeft to flatten a tree instead of flatten to avoid stackoverflow exception with the JUnit notification on large specifications

core fail a sbt run if there is an error in one of the steps (this includes the afterAll steps)

core fixed a NoSuchElementException when folding with a Sink #501

scalacheck report an AssertionError as a Failure in ScalaCheck and display arguments on exceptions

scalacheck fixed the use of datatables in ScalaCheck properties

gwt fixed an error in the example of GWT style

project fixed the google groups link

guide fixed a package name in the user guide

guide add missing imports to "Create Your Own" matchers section #493 (by Kris Nuttycombe)

markdown fixed the markdown spec which was broken after using pegdown 1.6.0. The post-processing of multilines in code blocks can not be easily done anymore so it was removed
