ZenTest provides 4 different tools and 1 library: zentest, unit_diff,
autotest, multiruby, and Test::Rails.
ZenTest scans your target and unit-test code and writes your missing
code based on simple naming rules, enabling XP at a much quicker
pace. ZenTest only works with Ruby and Test::Unit.
unit_diff is a command-line filter to diff expected results from
actual results and allow you to quickly see exactly what is wrong.
autotest is a continous testing facility meant to be used during
development. As soon as you save a file, autotest will run the
corresponding dependent tests.
multiruby runs anything you want on multiple versions of ruby. Great
for compatibility checking!
Test::Rails helps you build industrial-strength Rails code.
Changes:
3.9.0 / 2008-01-30
15 minor enhancements:
Added Wilson's patch to allow unit_diff to work with mspec. Adding rspec next.
Minor overhaul for autotest:
Added -f flag to start up without testing.
Added -q flag to autotest to make it extra quiet. Patch by Aaron Patterson.
Added ability to set test execution order, defaults to :random. EVIL!
Added completedre and failedresults_re to help subclasses like rspec.
Added deprecation warnings for hooks. Deprecated :run.
Added find_directories accessor, defaults to ['.']
Added sleep accessor, defaults to 1 second.
Changed findfiles to order files in the same order as finddirectories.
Changed how autodiscover works with $:, added lib to the front.
Cleaned out nearly every @ and use accessor methods instead. You should too.
Made test_mappings ordered.
