# Changelog All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). ## [Unreleased] ### Fixed - Fix resolution of types with the same name in nested scopes. [#31](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/31) - `around_each` hooks wrap `before_all` and `after_all` hooks. [#12](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/12) - Hook execution order has been tweaked to match RSpec. ### Added - `before_each`, `after_each`, and `around_each` hooks are yielded the current example as a block argument. - The `let` and `subject` blocks are yielded the current example as a block argument. - Add internal logging that uses Crystal's `Log` utility. Provide the `LOG_LEVEL` environment variable to enable. - Support dynamic creation of examples. - Capture and log information for hooks. - Tags can be added to examples and example groups. - Add matcher to check compiled type of values. - Examples can be skipped by using a `:pending` tag. A reason method can be specified: `pending: "Some excuse"` - Examples without a test block are marked as pending. [#37](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/37) - Examples can be skipped during execution by using `skip` or `pending` in the example block. [#17](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/17) - Sample blocks can be temporarily skipped by using `xsample` or `xrandom_sample`. - Add `before_suite` and `after_suite` hooks. [#21](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/21) - Support defining hooks in `Spectator.configure` block. [#21](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/21) - Examples with failures or skipped during execution will report the location of that result. [#57](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/57) - Support custom messages for failed expectations. [#28](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/28) - Allow named arguments and assignments for `provided` (`given`) block. - Add `aggregate_failures` to capture and report multiple failed expectations. [#24](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/24) - Supports matching groups. [#25](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/25) [#24](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/24) - Add `filter_run_including`, `filter_run_excluding`, and `filter_run_when_matching` to config block. - By default, only run tests when any are marked with `focus: true`. - Add "f-prefix" blocks for examples and groups (`fit`, `fdescribe`, etc.) as a short-hand for specifying `focus: true`. - Add HTML formatter. Operates the same as the JUnit formatter. Specify `--html_output=DIR` to use. [#22](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/22) [#3](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/3) ### Changed - `given` (now `provided`) blocks changed to produce a single example. `it` can no longer be nested in a `provided` block. - The "should" syntax no longer reports the source as inside Spectator. - Short-hand "should" syntax must be included by using `require "spectator/should"` - `it { should eq("foo") }` - Better error messages and detection when DSL methods are used when they shouldn't (i.e. `describe` inside `it`). - Prevent usage of reserved keywords in DSL (such as `initialize`). - The count argument for `sample` and `random_sample` groups must be named (use `count: 5` instead of just `5`). - Helper methods used as arguments for `sample` and `random_sample` must be class methods. - Simplify and reduce instanced types and generics. Should speed up compilation times. - Overhaul example creation and handling. - Overhaul storage of test values. - Overhaul reporting and formatting. Cleaner output for failures and pending tests. - Cleanup and simplify DSL implementation. - Other minor internal improvements and cleanup. ### Deprecated - `pending` blocks will behave differently in v0.11.0. They will mimic RSpec in that they _compile and run_ the block expecting it to fail. Use a `skip` (or `xit`) block instead to prevent compiling the example. - `given` has been renamed to `provided`. The `given` keyword may be reused later for memoization. ### Removed - Removed one-liner `it`-syntax without braces (block). ## [0.9.40] - 2021-07-10 ### Fixed - Fix stubbing of class methods. - Fix handling of `no_args` in some cases. ### Changed - Better handling and stubbing of `Process.exit`. ## [0.9.39] - 2021-07-02 ### Fixed - Fix `expect().to receive()` syntax not implicitly stubbing the method. - Avoid calling `NoReturn` methods from stubs. [#29](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/29) ### Added - Added support for `with(no_args)` for method stubs. [#28](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/28) - Allow creation of doubles without definition block.

[#58](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/58) ## [0.9.35] - 2021-04-18 ### Fixed - Allow types stored in variables or returned by methods in `be_a` (and variants), not just type literals. [#25](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/25) ## [0.9.34] - 2021-03-31 ### Changed - Allow filtering examples by using any line in the example block. [#19](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/19) Thanks @matthewmcgarvey ! ## [0.9.33] - 2021-03-22 ### Changed - Target Crystal 1.0 ## [0.9.32] - 2021-02-03 ### Fixed - Fix source reference with brace-less example syntax.

This prevented the use of "description" and "failure_message" in some matches like `respond_to`. ## [0.9.24] - 2020-09-17 ### Changed - Allow some forms of string interpolation in group and example descriptions. ## [0.9.23] - 2020-08-30 ### Fixed - Allow the use of `object_id` and other possibly conflicting method names via `let`. [#53](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/53) ## [0.9.22] - 2020-08-11 ### Changed - Handle splat in macro for matcher DSL. [#8](https://github.com/icy-arctic-fox/spectator/issues/8) ## [0.9.21] - 2020-07-27 ### Added - Display random seed when using `-r` or `--seed` options.

[#48](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/48) ## [0.9.16] - 2020-04-06 ### Fixed - Silence warnings from Crystal 0.34 ## [0.9.15] - 2020-04-03 ### Fixed - Fix issues with `match_array().in_any_order` and `contain_exactly().in_any_order`. [#47](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/47) ### Changed - Improve usability when actual value does not respond to methods needed to verify it. For instance, `expect(nil).to contain_exactly(:foo)` would not compile. This has been changed so that it compiles and raises an error at runtime with a useful message. ## [0.9.14] - 2020-04-01 ### Fixed - Fix using nil with `be` matcher. [#45](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/45) ## [0.9.13] - 2020-03-28 ### Fixed - Fix arguments not found in default stubs for mocks.

Thanks @davidepaolotua / @jinn999 ! ## [0.9.7] - 2020-02-16 ### Fixed - Fix memoization of subject when using a type name for the context. - Fix some cases when mocking a class method. ## [0.9.6] - 2020-02-10 ### Added - Add short-hand "should" syntax - `it { should eq("foo") }` - The `be` matcher can be used on value types. - Add more tests cases from RSpec docs. ### Fixed - Fix an issue with stubbed class methods on mocked types. Sometimes `previous_def` was used when `super` should have been used instead. - Fix deferred expectations not running after all hooks. ## [0.9.5] - 2020-01-19 ### Changed - Described type is now considered an explicit subject. ## [0.9.4] - 2020-01-19 ### Added - Add more test cases from RSpec docs. - Add `it_fails` utility to test expected failures. ### Fixed - Fix negated case for `respond_to` matcher. ## [0.9.3] - 2020-01-17 ### Fixed - Fix implicit subject overwriting explicit subject.

[#16](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/merge_requests/16) [#6](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/6) - Deferred expectations (`to_eventually` and `to_never`). ### Changed - Test cases no longer define an entire class, but rather a method in a class belonging to the group. ## [0.8.3] - 2019-09-23 ### Fixed - Fix and address warnings with Crystal 0.31.0. ## [0.8.2] - 2019-08-21 ### Fixed - Workaround for Crystal compiler bug [#7060](https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/7060).

[#11](https://gitlab.com/arctic-fox/spectator/-/issues/11) ## [0.7.1] - 2019-05-21 ### Fixed - Fixed an issue where named subjects could crash the compiler. ## [0.7.0] - 2019-05-16 ### Added - Added `be_between` matcher. ### Changed - The `be_within` matcher behaves like RSpec's. ## [0.6.0] - 2019-05-08 ### Changed - Introduced reference matcher and changed `be` matcher to use it instead of the case matcher. ### Removed - Removed regex matcher, the case matcher is used instead. ## [0.5.3] - 2019-05-08 ### Fixed - Updated the `expect_raises` matcher to accept an optional second argument to mimic `raise_error`.
