50
51== Version 1.1.0-RC1
52
53Textmate Bundle users - this release adds a new RSpec bundle that highlights describe, it, before and after and
54provides navigation to descriptions and examples (rather than classes and methods). When you first install this,
55it is going to try to hijack all of your .rb files. All you need to do is open a .rb file that does not end with
56'spec.rb' and change the bundle selection from RSpec to Ruby. TextMate will do the right thing from then on.
57
58Shortcuts for tab-activated snippets all follow the TextMate convention of 2 or 3 letters of the first word, followed by the first letter of each subsequent word. So "should have_at_least" would be triggered by shhal.
59
60We reduced the scope for running spec directories, files, a single file or individual spec in TextMate to source.ruby.rspec. This allowed us to restore the standard Ruby shortcuts:
61
62CMD-R runs all the specs in one file
63CMD-SHIFT-R runs an individual spec
64CMD-OPT-R runs any files or directories selected in the TextMate drawer
65
66rspec_on_rails users - don't forget to run script/generate rspec
67
68* Added shared_examples_for method, which you can (should) use instead of describe Foo, :shared => true

160
161== Version 1.0.8
162
163Another bugfix release - this time to resolve the version mismatch
164
165== Version 1.0.7
166
167Quick bugfix release to ensure that you don't have to have the rspec gem installed
168in order to use autotest with rspec_on_rails.
169
170* Fixed [#13015] autotest gives failure in 'spec_command' after upgrade 1.0.5 to 1.0.6
171
172== Version 1.0.6
173
174The "holy cow, batman, it's been a long time since we released and there are a ton of bug
175fixes, patches and even new features" release.
176
177Warning: Spec::Rails users: In fixing 11508, we've removed the raise_controller_errors method. As long as you
178follow the upgrade instructions and run 'script/generate rspec' you'll be fine, but if you skip this
179step you need to manually go into spec_helper.rb and remove the call to that method (if present - it
180might not be if you haven't upgraded in a while).
181
182Warning: Implementors of custom formatters. Formatters will now be sent an Example object instead of just a
183String for #example_started, #example_passed and #example_failed. In certain scenarios
184(Spec::Ui with Spec::Distributed), the formatter must ask the Example for its sequence number instead of
185keeping track of a sequence number internal to the formatter. Most of you shouldn't need to upgrade
186your formatters though - the Example#to_s method returns the example name/description, so you should be
187able to use the passed Example instance as if it were a String.
188
189* Applied [#12986] Autotest Specs + Refactoring (Patch from Scott Tayler)
190* Added a #close method to formatters, which allows them to gracefully close streams.
191* Applied [#12935] Remove requirement that mocha must be installed as a gem when used as mocking framework. (Patch from Ryan Kinderman).
192* Fixed [#12893] RSpec's Autotest should work with rspec's trunk
193* Fixed [#12865] Partial mock error when object has an @options instance var
194* Applied [#12701] Allow checking of content captured with content_for in view specs (Patch from Jens Kr�mer)
195* Applied [#12817] Cannot include same shared behaviour when required with absolute paths (Patch from Ian Leitch)
196* Applied [#12719] rspec_on_rails should not include pagination helper (Patch from Matthijs Langenberg)
197* Fixed [#12714] helper spec not finding rails core helpers
198* Applied [#12611] should_not redirect_to implementation (Patch from Yurii Rashkovskii)
199* Applied [#12682] Not correctly aliasing original 'stub!' and 'should_receive' methods for ApplicationController (Patch from Matthijs Langenberg)
200* Disabled controller.should_receive(:render) and controller.stub!(:render). Use expect_render or stub_render instead.
201* Applied [#12484] Allow a Behaviour's Description to flow through to the Formatter (Patch from Bob Cotton)
202* Fixed [#12448] The spec:plugins rake task from rspec_on_rails should ignore specs from the rspec_on_rails plugin

333* Applied [#10631] redirect_to matcher doesn't respect request.host (Patch from Tim Lucas)
334* Each formatter now flushes their own IO. This is to avoid buffering of output.
335* Fixed [#10670] IVarProxy#delete raises exception when instance variable does not exist
336
337== Version 0.9.3
338This is a bugfix release.
339
340* Fixed [#10594] Failing Custom Matcher show NAME NOT GENERATED description
341* describe(SomeType, "#message") will not add a space: "SomeType#message" (likewise for '.')

343* Applied [#10566] prepend_before and prepend_after callbacks
344* Applied [#10567] Call setup and teardown using before and after callbacks
345
346== Version 0.9.2
347This is a quick maintenance release.
348
349* Added some website love
350* Fixed [#10542] reverse predicate matcher syntax
351* Added a spec:translate Rake task to make 0.9 translation easier with Spec:Rails
352* Better translation of should_redirect_to
353* Fixed --colour support for Windows. This is a regression that was introduced in 0.9.1
354* Applied [#10460] Make SpecRunner easier to instantiate without using commandline args
355
356== Version 0.9.1
357
358This release introduces #describe and #it (aliased as #context and #specify for
359backwards compatibility). This allows you to express specs like this:
360
361 describe SomeClass do # Creates a Behaviour
362 it "should do something" do # Creates an Example
363 end
364 end
365
366The command line features four new options that give you more control over what specs
367are being run and in what order. This can be used to verify that your specs are
368independent (by running in opposite order with --reverse). It can also be used to cut
369down feedback time by running the most recently modified specs first (--loadby mtime --reverse).
370
371Further, --example replaces the old --spec option, and it can now take a file name of
372spec names as an alternative to just a spec name. The --format failing_examples:file.txt
373option allows you to output an --example compatible file, which makes it possible to only
374rerun the specs that failed in the last run. Spec::Rails uses all of these four options
375by default to optimise your RSpec experience.
376
377There is now a simple configuration model. For Spec::Rails, you do something like this:
378
379 Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
380 config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
381 config.use_instantiated_fixtures = false
382 config.fixture_path = RAILS_ROOT + '/spec/fixtures'
383 end
384
385You can now use mocha or flexmock with RSpec if you prefer either to
386RSpec's own mock framework. Just put this:
387
388 Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
389 config.mock_with :mocha
390 end
391
392or this:
393
394 Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
395 config.mock_with :flexmock
396 end
397
398in a file that is loaded before your specs. You can also
399configure included modules and predicate_matchers:
400
401 Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
402 config.include SomeModule
403 config.predicate_matchers[:does_something?] = :do_something
404 end
405
406See Spec::DSL::Behaviour for more on predicate_matchers
407

420* The --out option is gone. Use --format html:path/to/my.html instead (or similar).

473== Version 0.8.2
474
475Replaced assert_select fork with an assert_select wrapper for have_tag. This means that "should have_rjs" no longer supports :hide or :effect, but you can still use should_have_rjs for those.
476
477== Version 0.8.1
478
479Quick "in house" bug-fix
480
481== Version 0.8.0

486
487This release also improves the spec command line by adding DRb support and making it possible to
488store command line options in a file. This means a more flexible RSpec experience with Rails,
489Rake and editor plugins like TextMate.

590== Version 0.7.3
591
592Almost normal bug fix/new feature release.
593
594A couple of things you need to change in your rails specs:

641
642== Version 0.7.0
643
644This is the "Grow up and eat your own dog food release". RSpec is now used on itself and
645we're no longer using Test::Unit to test it. Although, we are still extending Test::Unit
646for the rails plugin (indirectly - through ZenTest)
647
648IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS RELEASE IS NOT 100% BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE TO 0.6.x
649
650There are a few changes that will require that you change your existing specs.
651
652RSpec now handles equality exactly like ruby does:
653
654# actual.should_equal(expected) will pass if actual.equal?(expected) returns true
655# actual.should eql(expected) will pass if actual.eql?(expected) returns true
656# actual.should == expected will pass if actual == expected) returns true
657
658At the high level, eql? implies equivalence, while equal? implies object identity. For more
659information on how ruby deals w/ equality, you should do this:
660
661ri equal?
662
663or look at this:
664
665http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Object.html#M001057
666
667Also, we left in should_be as a synonym for should_equal, so the only specs that should break are the
668ones using should_equal (which used to use <code>==</code> instead of <code>.equal?</code>).
669
670Lastly, should_be used to handle true and false differently from any other values. We've removed
671this special handling, so now actual.should_be true will fail for any value other than true (it
672used to pass for any non-nil, non-false value), and actual.should_be false will fail for any
673value other than false (it used to pass for nil or false).
674
675Here's what you'll need to do to update your specs:
676# search for "should_equal" and replace with "should_eql"
677# run specs
678
679If any specs still fail, they are probably related to should be_true or should_be_false using
680non-boolean values. Those you'll just have to inspect manually and adjust appropriately (sorry!).
681
682--------------------------------------------------
683Specifying multiple return values in mocks now works like this:
684
685mock.should_receive(:message).and_return(1,2,3)
686
687It used to work like this:
688
689mock.should_receive(:message).and_return([1,2,3])
690
691but we decided that was counter intuitive and otherwise lame.
692
693Here's what you'll need to do to update your specs:
694# search for "and_return(["
695# get rid of the "[" and "]"
696
697--------------------------------------------------
698RSpec on Rails now supports the following (thanks to ZenTest upon which it is built):
699
700# Separate specs for models, views, controllers and helpers
701# Controller specs are completely decoupled from the views by default (though you can tell them to couple themselves if you prefer)
702# View specs are completely decoupled from app-specific controllers
703
704See http://rspec.rubyforge.org/documentation/rails/index.html for more information
705--------------------------------------------------
706As usual, there are also other new features and bug fixes:
707
708* Added lots of documentation on mocks/stubs and the rails plugin.
709* Added support for assigns[key] syntax for controller specs (to align w/ pre-existing syntax for view specs)
710* Added support for controller.should_redirect_to
711* RSpec on Rails automatically checks whether it's compatible with the installed RSpec
712* Applied [#6393] rspec_on_rails uses deprecated '@response' instead of the accessor
713* RSpec now has 100% spec coverage(!)
714* Added support for stubbing and partial mocking
715* Progress (....F..F.) is now coloured. Tweaked patch from KAKUTANI Shintaro.

728
729== Version 0.6.4
730
731In addition to a number of bug fixes and patches, this release begins to formalize the support for
732RSpec on Rails.
733
734* Added Christopher Petrilli's TextMate bundle to vendor/textmate/RSpec.tmbundle
735* Fixed [#5909], once again supporting multi_word_predicates
736* Applied [#5873] - response.should_have_rjs (initial patch from Jake Howerton, based on ARTS by Kevin Clark)
737* Added generation of view specs for rspec_on_rails
738* Applied [#5815] active_record_subclass.should_have(3).records
739* Added support in "rake stats" for view specs (in spec/views)
740* Applied [#5801] QuickRef.pdf should say RSpec, not rSpec
741* Applied [#5728] rails_spec_runner fails on Windows (Patch from Lindsay Evans).
742* Applied [#5708] RSpec Rails plugin rspec_controller generator makes specs that do not parse.
743* Cleaned up RSpec on Rails so it doesn't pollute as much during bootstrapping.
744* Added support for response.should_have_tag and response.should_not_have_tag (works just like assert_tag in rails)
745* Added new -c, --colour, --color option for colourful (red/green) output. Inspired from Pat Eyler's Redgreen gem.
746* Added examples for Watir and Selenium under the gem's vendor directory.
747* Renamed rails_spec_runner to rails_spec_server (as referred to in the docs)
748* Added support for trying a plural for arbitrary predicates. E.g. Album.should_exist(:name => "Hey Jude") will call Album.exists?(:name => "Hey Jude")
749* Added support for should_have to work with methods taking args returning a collection. E.g. @dave.should_have(3).albums_i_have_that_this_guy_doesnt(@aslak)
750* Added [#5570] should_not_receive(:msg).with(:specific, "args")
751* Applied [#5065] to support using define_method rather than method_missing to capture expected messages on mocks. Thanks to Eero Saynatkari for the tip that made it work.
752* Restructured directories and Modules in order to separate rspec into three distinct Modules: Spec::Expectations, Spec::Runner and Spec::Mocks. This will allow us to more easily integrate other mock frameworks and/or allow test/unit users to take advantage of the expectation API.
753* Applied [#5620] support any boolean method and arbitrary comparisons (5.should_be < 6) (Patch from Mike Williams)
754
755== Version 0.6.3
756
757This release fixes some minor bugs related to RSpec on Rails
758Note that if you upgrade a rails app with this version of the rspec_on_rails plugin
759you should remove your lib/tasks/rspec.rake if it exists.
760
761* Backtraces from drb (and other standard ruby libraries) are now stripped from backtraces.
762* Applied [#5557] Put rspec.rake into the task directory of the RSpec on Rails plugin (Patch from Daniel Siemssen)

769* Applied [#5525] fix rake task path to spec tool for gem-installed rspec (patch from Riley Lynch)
770* Fixed a teensey regression with the rake task - introduced in 0.6.1. The spec command is now quoted so it works on windows.
771
772== Version 0.6.1
773This is the "fix the most annoying bugs release" of RSpec. There are 9 bugfixes this time.
774Things that may break backwards compatibility:
7751) Spec::Rake::SpecTask no longer has the options attribute. Use ruby_opts, spec_opts and rcov_opts instead.

783* Applied [#5468, #5058] Fix spec runner to correctly run controller specs (Patch from Daniel Siemssen)
784* Applied fixes to rails_spec_server to improve its ability to run several times. (Patch from Daniel Siemssen)

789
790* Fixed bug (5292) that caused mock argument matching to fail
791* Converted ALL tests to use underscore syntax
792* Fixed all remaining problems with underscores revealed by converting all the tests to underscores
793* Enhanced sugar to support combinations of methods (i.e. once.and_return)
794* Simplified helper structure taking advantage of dot/underscore combos (i.e. should.be.an_instance_of, which can be expressed as should be_an_instance_of)
795* Added support for at_most in mocks
796* Added support for should_not_receive(:msg) (will be removing should_receive(:msg).never some time soon)
797* Added support for should_have_exactly(5).items_in_collection

811
812* Removed support for differences that was added in 0.5.14. The functionality is not aligned with RSpec's vision.
813
814== Version 0.5.14
815This release introduces better ways to extend specs, improves some of the core API and
816a experimental support for faster rails specs.
817
818* Added proc methods for specifying differences (increments and decrements). See difference_test.rb
819* Methods can now be defined alongside specs. This obsoletes the need for defining methods in setup. (Patch #5002 from Brian Takita)
820* Sugar (underscores) now works correctly with should be_a_kind_of and should be_an_instance_of
821* Added support for include and inherit in contexts. (Patch #4971 from Brian Takita)

830* Fixed a bug that caused mocks to yield a one-element array (rather than the element) when one yield arg specified.
831* Mocks not raise AmbiguousReturnError if an explicit return is used at the same time as an expectation block.
832* Blocks passed to yielding mocks can now raise without causing mock verification to fail.

836minor enhancements.
837
838* Added HTML formatter.

843* Added --verbose mode for test2spec - useful for debugging when classes fail to translate.
844* Output of various formatters is now flushed - to get more continuous output.
845
846== Version 0.5.11
847This release makes test2spec usable with Rails (with some manual steps).
848See http://rspec.rubyforge.org/tools/rails.html for more details

857
858== Version 0.5.9
859This release improves test2spec by allowing more control over the output
860
861* Added --template option to test2spec, which allows for custom output driven by ERB
862* Added --quiet option to test2spec
863* Removed unnecessary dependency on RubyToC
864
865== Version 0.5.8
866This release features a new Test::Unit to RSpec translation tool.
867Also note that the RubyGem of the previous release (0.5.7) was corrupt.
868We're close to being able to translate all of RSpec's own Test::Unit
869tests and have them run successfully!
870
871* Updated test2spec documentation.
872* Replaced old test2rspec with a new test2spec, which is based on ParseTree and RubyInline.
