v1.9.5
1.9.5
Fixes
- Truthy expressions are now reconstructed properly, not as booleans (#914)
- Various warnings are no longer erroneously suppressed in test files (files that include
catch.hpp
, but do not defineCATCH_CONFIG_MAIN
orCATCH_CONFIG_RUNNER
) (#871) - Catch no longer fails to link when main is compiled as C++, but linked against Objective-C (#855)
- Fixed incorrect gcc version detection when deciding to use
__COUNTER__
(#928)- Previously any GCC with minor version less than 3 would be incorrectly classified as not supporting
__COUNTER__
.
- Previously any GCC with minor version less than 3 would be incorrectly classified as not supporting
- Suppressed C4996 warning caused by upcoming updated to MSVC 2017, marking
std::uncaught_exception
as deprecated. (#927)
Improvements
- CMake integration script now incorporates debug messages and registers tests in an improved way (#911)
- Various documentation improvements
v1.9.4
Fixes
CATCH_FAIL
macro no longer causes compilation error without variadic macro supportINFO
messages are no longer cleared after being reported once
Improvements and minor changes
- Catch now uses
wmain
when compiled under Windows andUNICODE
is defined.- Note that Catch still officially supports only ASCII
v1.9.3
Fixes
- Completed the fix for (lack of) uint64_t in earlier Visual Studios
v1.9.2
Improvements and minor changes
- All of
Approx
's member functions now accept strong typedefs in C++11 mode (#888)- Previously
Approx::scale
,Approx::epsilon
,Approx::margin
andApprox::operator()
didn't.
- Previously
Fixes
- POSIX signals are now disabled by default under QNX (#889)
- QNX does not support current enough (2001) POSIX specification
- JUnit no longer counts exceptions as failures if given test case is marked as ok to fail.
Catch::Option
should now have its storage properly aligned.- Catch no longer attempts to define
uint64_t
on windows (#862)- This was causing trouble when compiled under Cygwin
Other
- Catch is now compiled under MSVC 2017 using
std:c++latest
(C++17 mode) in CI - We now provide cmake script that autoregisters Catch tests into ctest.
- See
contrib
folder.
- See
v1.9.1
v1.9.0
Improvements and minor changes
- Catch no longer attempts to ensure the exception type passed by user in
REQUIRE_THROWS_AS
is a constant reference.- It was causing trouble when
REQUIRE_THROWS_AS
was used inside templated functions - This actually reverts changes made in v1.7.2
- It was causing trouble when
- Catch's
Version
struct should no longer be double freed when multiple instances of Catch tests are loaded into single program (#858)- It is now a static variable in an inline function instead of being an
extern
ed struct.
- It is now a static variable in an inline function instead of being an
- Attempt to register invalid tag or tag alias now throws instead of calling
exit()
.- Because this happen before entering main, it still aborts execution
- Further improvements to this are coming
CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE
now speeds-up compilation ofREQUIRE*
assertions by further ~15%.- The trade-off is disabling translation of unexpected exceptions into text.
- When Catch is compiled using C++11,
Approx
is now constructible with anything that can be explicitly converted todouble
. - Captured messages are now printed on unexpected exceptions
Fixes:
- Clang's
-Wexit-time-destructors
should be suppressed for Catch's internals - GCC's
-Wparentheses
is now suppressed for all TU's that includecatch.hpp
.- This is functionally a revert of changes made in 1.8.0, where we tried using
_Pragma
based suppression. This should have kept the suppression local to Catch's assertions, but bugs in GCC's handling of_Pragma
s in C++ mode meant that it did not always work.
- This is functionally a revert of changes made in 1.8.0, where we tried using
- You can now tell Catch to use C++11-based check when checking whether a type can be streamed to output.
- This fixes cases when an unstreamable type has streamable private base (#877)
- Details can be found in documentation
Other notes:
- We have added VS 2017 to our CI
- Work on Catch 2 should start soon
v1.8.2
Improvements and minor changes
- TAP reporter now behaves as if
-s
was always set- This should be more consistent with the protocol desired behaviour.
- Compact reporter now obeys
-d yes
argument (#780)- The format is "XXX.123 s: " (3 decimal places are always present).
- Before it did not report the durations at all.
- XML reporter now behaves the same way as Console reporter in regards to
INFO
- This means it reports
INFO
messages on success, if output on success (-s
) is enabled. - Previously it only reported
INFO
messages on failure.
- This means it reports
CAPTURE(expr)
now stringifiesexpr
in the same way assertion macros do (#639)- Listeners are now finally documented.
- Listeners provide a way to hook into events generated by running your tests, including start and end of run, every test case, every section and every assertion.
Fixes:
- Catch no longer attempts to reconstruct expression that led to a fatal error (#810)
- This fixes possible signal/SEH loop when processing expressions, where the signal was triggered by expression decomposition.
- Fixed (C4265) missing virtual destructor warning in Matchers (#844)
std::string
s are now taken byconst&
everywhere (#842).- Previously some places were taking them by-value.
- Catch should no longer change errno (#835).
- This was caused by libstdc++ bug that we now work around.
- Catch now provides
FAIL_CHECK( ... )
macro (#765).- Same as
FAIL( ... )
, but does not abort the test.
- Same as
- Functions like
fabs
,tolower
,memset
,isalnum
are now used withstd::
qualification (#543). - Clara no longer assumes first argument (binary name) is always present (#729)
- If it is missing, empty string is used as default.
- Clara no longer reads 1 character past argument string (#830)
- Regression in Objective-C bindings (Matchers) fixed (#854)
Other notes:
- We have added VS 2013 and 2015 to our CI
- Catch Classic (1.x.x) now contains its own, forked, version of Clara (the argument parser).
v1.8.1
Fixes
Cygwin issue with gettimeofday
- #define
was not early enough
v1.8.0
New features/ minor changes
- Matchers have new, simpler (and documented) interface.
- Catch provides string and vector matchers.
- For details see Matchers documentation.
- Changed console reporter test duration reporting format (#322)
- Old format:
Some simple comparisons between doubles completed in 0.000123s
- New format:
xxx.123s: Some simple comparisons between doubles
(There will always be exactly 3 decimal places)
- Old format:
- Added opt-in leak detection under MSVC + Windows (#439)
- Enable it by compiling Catch's main with
CATCH_CONFIG_WINDOWS_CRTDBG
- Enable it by compiling Catch's main with
- Introduced new compile-time flag,
CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE
, trading features for compilation speed.- Moves debug breaks out of tests and into implementation, speeding up test compilation time (~10% on linux).
- More changes are coming
- Added TAP (Test Anything Protocol) and Automake reporters.
- These are not present in the default single-include header and need to be downloaded from GitHub separately.
- For details see documentation about integrating with build systems.
- XML reporter now reports filename as part of the
Section
andTestCase
tags. Approx
now supports an optional margin of absolute error- It has also received new documentation.
Fixes
- Silenced C4312 ("conversion from int to 'ClassName *") warnings in the evaluate layer.
- Fixed C4512 ("assignment operator could not be generated") warnings under VS2013.
- Cygwin compatibility fixes
- Signal handling is no longer compiled by default.
- Usage of
gettimeofday
inside Catch should no longer cause compilation errors.
- Improved
-Wparentheses
supression for gcc (#674)- When compiled with gcc 4.8 or newer, the supression is localized to assertions only
- Otherwise it is supressed for the whole TU
- Fixed test spec parser issue (with escapes in multiple names)
Other
- Various documentation fixes and improvements
v1.7.2
Fixes and minor improvements
Xml:
(technically the first two are breaking changes but are also fixes and arguably break few if any people)
- C-escape control characters instead of XML encoding them (which requires XML 1.1)
- Revert XML output to XML 1.0
- Can provide stylesheet references by extending the XML reporter
- Added description and tags attribites to XML Reporter
- Tags are closed and the stream flushed more eagerly to avoid stdout interpolation
Other:
REQUIRE_THROWS_AS
now catches exception byconst&
and reports expected type- In
SECTION
s the file/ line is now of theSECTION
. not theTEST_CASE
- Added std:: qualification to some functions from C stdlib
- Removed use of RTTI (
dynamic_cast
) that had crept back in - Silenced a few more warnings in different circumstances
- Travis improvements
