package alcotest-async

1.4.0 (2021-04-15)

• Add ?here and ?pos arguments to the test assertion functions. These can be used to pass information about the location of the call-site, which is displayed in failing test output. (#291, @CraigFe)

• Add a pretty-printer for the exception raised by Alcotest.check and related functions. This allows them to be used outside of an Alcotest test runner for making general assertions. (#296, @CraigFe)

• Add --bail option (and corresponding ALCOTEST_BAIL environment variable), which causes Alcotest to terminate after the first test failure. (#298, @CraigFe)

1.3.0 (2021-02-16)

• Add Alcotest.triple for testing 3-tuples. (#288, @sheepduke)

• Correctly report test suite duration with millisecond precision. (#286, @CraigFe)

• Improve pretty-printing of results to consider the terminal width, fixing several display issues due to line wrapping in small terminals. (#282, @CraigFe)

1.2.3 (2020-09-07)

• Require Dune 2.2. (#274, @CraigFe)

• Fix a bug in the handling of the ~and_exit:false option when the test suite fails. (#271, @CraigFe)

1.2.2 (2020-08-26)

• Fail gracefully when the user supplies an empty suite name. (#265, @CraigFe)

• Fix compatibility with fmt.0.8.8+dune by adding a missing fmt dependency in alcotest's dune file (#266, @NathanReb)

• Only show "in progress" lines when writing to a TTY. (#267, @CraigFe)

1.2.1 (2020-07-15)

• Surround pretty-printed diffs with quotes to make trailing whitespace more obvious. (#261, @CraigFe)

• Allow . characters to appear unescaped in symlinks and test directories. (#259, @CraigFe)

1.2.0 (2020-07-13)

• Add an alcotest-mirage package, allowing the construction of MirageOS unikernels that run Alcotest test suites. (#238, @hannesm @linse)

• Add a testable for the bytes type. (#253, @mefyl)

• Many assorted improvements to Alcotest output formatting. (#246, @CraigFe)

• Default to --color=always when running inside Dune (#242, @CraigFe). The value can be overridden by setting the ALCOTEST_COLOR variable in a dune file, for example:

(env
 (_
  (env-vars
   (ALCOTEST_COLOR auto))))

• Support all UTF-8 characters in test names and suite names, by normalising them for file-system interactions. (#249, @gs0510; #246, @CraigFe)

• Fix various crashes when using non-filesystem-safe characters in test suite names (these break Alcotest when attempting to generate a corresponding log file). (#241, @mefyl; #246 @CraigFe)

1.1.0 (2020-04-03)

• Fix handling of CLI options for Alcotest_{async,lwt}.run. (#222, @CraigFe)

1.0.1 (2020-02-12)

• Add support for an ALCOTEST_COLOR={auto,always,never} environment variable to control the colorization of terminal output. (#209, @mjambon)

• Fix handling of exceptions in Alcotest_{async,lwt}. (#212, @CraigFe @talex5)

1.0.0 (2020-01-14)

• Require OCaml 4.03. (#159, @hannesm)
