Today, we're shipping three new releases:
It's been 2 weeks since the release of 2.6.1 RTM.
As always, we'd like to thank all the users who contributed to the success of xUnit.net through usage, feedback, and code. 🎉
These release notes are a comprehensive list of changes from 2.6.1 to 2.6.2.
stopOnFail
when synchronous message reporting was requested. The most common trigger for this situation was disabling
test collection parallelization while using xunit.runner.visualstudio
.
xunit/visualstudio.xunit#392
Assert.Equal
where you
were comparing collections of items which had custom comparison logic (i.e., by implementing
IEquatable<T>
). While this was triggered by some performance optimization that
happened in the previous release, it turns out there was a larger issue related to how inner
comparers were used during collections & complex object comparisons. The change here was
somewhat
substantial in that it changes the way default inner comparers are created, and as such
may have some unforeseen secondary effects. If you find items that were previous passing suddenly
start failing, please open issues so we can evaluate the comparison paths.
xunit/xunit#2821
We have updated the "starting" banners slightly when you have diagnostic messages enabled.
We are now reporting the status of stopOnFail
and have made reporting of maxParallelThreads
more consistent with usage: when parallelTestCollections
is turned off, maximum parallel threads is ignored and thus now not shown; when it is reported now (because
test collection parallelization is on), it is reported as a sub-value of that fact. To illustrate, here are
a couple examples of old vs. new:
Starting: Assembly1 (parallel test collections = on, max threads = 42) Starting: Assembly2 (parallel test collections = off, max threads = 42)
Starting: Assembly1 (parallel test collections = on [42 threads], stop on fail = off) Starting: Assembly2 (parallel test collections = off, stop on fail = on)
SilentReporter
(with -silent
switch for the console runner,
Reporter="silent"
for the MSBuild runner, and RunnerSwitch
value of
silent
for xunit.runner.visualstudio
via RunSettings).
This reporter is designed to block all messages (other than the copyright banner/logo). While not particularly
useful for the console & MSBuild runners, it was requested for xunit.runner.visualstudio
because of the habit of dotnet test
to output some notices twice (once from our adapter,
and once from VSTest). Note that this is not the default, so if you are among the users who are bothered
by the double reporting in VSTest, this reporter is for you.
