2.14.2 / 2013-07-09

full changelog

Bug fixes

• Fix regression caused by 2.14.1 release: formatters that
  report that they respond_to? a notification, but had
  no corresponding method would raise an error when registered.
  The new fix is to just implement start on the deprecation
  formatter to fix the original JRuby/ruby-debug issue.
  (Jon Rowe)

2.14.0

full changelog

Enhancements

• Apply focus to examples defined with fit (equivalent of
  it "description", focus: true) (Michael de Silva)

Bug fix

  when there is a name collision (e.g. from an included module).
  (Jon Rowe, Andy Lindeman and Myron Marston)

2.14.0.rc1 / 2013-05-27

full changelog

Enhancements

• Improved Windows detection inside Git Bash, for better --color handling.
• Add profiling of the slowest example groups to --profile option.
  The output is sorted by the slowest average example groups.
• Don't show slow examples if there's a failure and both --fail-fast
  and --profile options are used (Paweł Gościcki).
• Rather than always adding spec to the load path, add the configured
  --default-path to the load path (which defaults to spec). This
  better supports folks who choose to put their specs in a different
  directory (John Feminella).
• Add some logic to test time duration precision. Make it a
  function of time, dropping precision as the time increases. (Aaron Kromer)
• Add new backtrace_inclusion_patterns config option. Backtrace lines
  that match one of these patterns will always be included in the
  backtrace, even if they match an exclusion pattern, too (Sam Phippen).
• Support ERB trim mode using the - when parsing .rspec as ERB
  (Gabor Garami).
• Give a better error message when let and subject are called without a block.
  (Sam Phippen).
• List the precedence of .rspec-local in the configuration documentation
  (Sam Phippen)
• Support {a,b} shell expansion syntax in --pattern option
  (Konstantin Haase).
• Add cucumber documentation for --require command line option
  (Bradley Schaefer)
• Expose configruation options via config:
  • config.libs returns the libs configured to be added onto the load path
  • full_backtrace? returns the state of the backtrace cleaner
  • debug? returns true when the debugger is loaded
  • line_numbers returns the line numbers we are filtering by (if any)
  • full_description returns the RegExp used to filter descriptions
    (Jon Rowe)
• Add setters for RSpec.world and RSpec.configuration (Alex Soulim)
• Configure ruby's warning behaviour with --warnings (Jon Rowe)
• Fix an obscure issue on old versions of 1.8.7 where Time.dup wouldn't
  allow access to Time.now (Jon Rowe)
• Make shared_examples_for context aware, so that keys may be safely reused
  in multiple contexts without colliding. (Jon Rowe)
• Add a configurable deprecation_stream (Jon Rowe)
• Publish deprecations through a formatter (David Chelimsky)

Bug fixes

• Make JSON formatter behave the same when it comes to --profile as
  the text formatter (Paweł Gościcki).
• Fix named subjects so that if an inner group defines a method that
  overrides the named method, subject still retains the originally
  declared value (Myron Marston).
• Fix random ordering so that it does not cause rand in examples in
  nested sibling contexts to return the same value (Max Shytikov).
• Use the new backtrace_inclusion_patterns config option to ensure
  that folks who develop code in a directory matching one of the default
  exclusion patterns (e.g. gems) still get the normal backtrace
  filtering (Sam Phippen).
• Fix ordering of before hooks so that before hooks declared in
  RSpec.configure run before before hooks declared in a shared
  context (Michi Huber and Tejas Dinkar).
• Fix Example#full_description so that it gets filled in by the last
  matcher description (as Example#description already did) when no
  doc string has been provided (David Chelimsky).
• Fix the memoized methods (let and subject) leaking define_method
  as a public method. (Thomas Holmes and Jon Rowe) (#873)
• Fix warnings coming from the test suite. (Pete Higgins)

Deprecations

• Deprecate Configuration#backtrace_clean_patterns in favor of
  Configuration#backtrace_exclusion_patterns for greater consistency
  and symmetry with new backtrace_inclusion_patterns config option
  (Sam Phippen).
• Deprecate Configuration#requires= in favor of using ruby's
  require. Requires specified by the command line can still be
  accessed by the Configuration#require reader. (Bradley Schaefer)
• Deprecate calling SharedExampleGroups defined across sibling contexts
