• Use new proposed structure for gems by bundler (#439)

• Rename methods which run commands (#438)

• Fix dependency error for install (#427)

• Set permissions to values which are supported on Windows (#398, #388)

• Remove Aruba::Reporting (#389)

• Rename bin/cli to bin/aruba-test-cli to prevent name conflict (#390)

• Drop support for ruby < 1.9.3 and rubinius (#385)

• Fixed wrong number of arguments in Aruba::Platforms::WindowsEnvironmentVariables#delete (#349, #358 by e2)

• Fixed colors in script/bootstrap ( #352, e2)

• Fixed use of removed Utils-module (#347, e2)

• Fixed exception handler in BasicProcess (#357, e2)

• Fixed step to check for existing of files (#375, rubbish)

• Fixed unset instance variable (#372, e2)

• Added vision and hints to project README (#366)

• Fixed setting environment variables on Windows (#358, e2)

• Fixed the logic to determine disk usage (#359, e2)

• Prefixed exception in rescue-call to make it fail with a proper error message (#376)

• Run and build aruba in isolated environment via docker (#353 by e2, #382)

• Run container with docker-compose without making docker-compose a required dependency. Rake tasks read in the docker-compose.yml instead (#382)

• Document developer rake tasks via cucumber features (#382)

• Add more hints to CONTRIBUTING.md (#382)

• Add TESTING.md (WIP) (#382, e2)

• Cleanup rake tasks via separate namespaces (#382)

• Some more minor fixes (#382)

• Don't run feature test if executable required for test is not installed (python, bash, zsh, javac, ...) (#382)

• Support for rubies older than 1.9.3 is discontinued - e.g 1.8.7 and 1.9.2

• aruba requires "cucumber 2" for the feature steps. The rest of aruba should be usable by whatever testing framework you are using.

• Overwriting methods for configuration is discontinued. You need to use aruba.config.<variable> or Aruba.configure { |config| config.<variable> instead.

• "aruba/reporting" will be removed. Please use @debug-tag + byebug, debugger, pry to troubleshoot your feature tests.

• Set environment variables will have only effect on run and the like + with_environment { }.

• The process environment will be fully resetted between tests. Sharing state via ENV = ‘shared state’ between tests will not be possible anymore. Please make that obvious by using explicit steps or use the aruba API for that.

• There will be a major cleanup for command execution. There will be only run and run_simple left. run_interactive is replaced by run.

• Setting the root directory of aruba via method overwrite or configuration - this should be your project root directory where the test suite is run.

• The direct use of “InProcess”, “DebugProcess” and “SpawnProcess” is not supported anymore. You need to use “Command” instead. But be careful, it has a different API.

• HOME can be configured via Aruba.configure {} and defaults to File.join(aruba.config.root_directory, aruba.config.working_directory?) if aruba/cucumber or aruba/rspec is used.

• Use different working directories based on test suite - RSpec, Cucumber. It’s tmp/rspec and tmp/cucumber now to make sure they do not overwrite the test results from each other.

• The use of @interactive is discontinued. You need to use last_command_started-method to get access to the interactively started command.

• If multiple commands have been started, each output has to be checked separately

  Scenario: Detect stdout from all processes
    When I run `printf "hello world!\n"`
    And I run `cat` interactively
    And I type "hola"
    And I type ""
    Then the stdout should contain:
      """
      hello world!
      """
    And the stdout should contain:
      """
      hola
      """
    And the stderr should not contain anything

• Add some more steps to modify environment

0.13.0¶ ↑

• Add two new hooks for rspec and cucumber to make troubleshooting feature files easier (#338):

• command_content: Outputs command content - helpful for scripts

• command_filesystem_status: Outputs information like group, owner, mode, atime, mtime

• Add generator to create ad hoc script file (#323, AdrieanKhisbe)

• Colored announcer output similar to the color of cucumber tags: cyan

• Fixed bug in announcer. It announces infomation several times due to duplicate announce-calls.

• Refactorings to internal simple_table-method (internal)

• Refactored Announcer, now it supports blocks for announce as well (internal)

• Fix circular require warnings (#339)

• Fix use of old instances variable @io_wait (#341). Now the default value for io_wait_timeout can be set correctly.

• Make it possible to announce information on command error, using a new option called activate_announcer_on_command_failure (#335, njam)

• Re-integrate event-bus-library into aruba-core (#342)

0.12.0¶ ↑

• Fixed syntax for Hash on ruby 1.8.7

• Reorder rubies in .travis.yml

0.11.0.pre3¶ ↑

• Fixed syntax for proc on ruby 1.8.7

0.11.0.pre2¶ ↑

• Integrate EventBus to decouple announcers from starting, stopping commands etc. This uses nearly the same implementation like cucumber. (#309)

• Starting/Stopping a command directly (command.start, command.stop) is now reported to the command monitor and last_command_stopped is updated correctly

• Added restart to Command to make it possible to restart a command

• Added check to prevent a command which has already been started, to be started again. Otherwise you’ve got hidden commands which are not stopped after a cucumber/rspec/minitest run.

• Adding alot of documentation to aruba

• Refactored run: Now it wants you to pass a Hash containing the options. The old syntax is still supported, but is deprecated.

• Added find_command as experimental feature. It searches the started commands from last to first.

• Added be_an_executable matcher

0.11.0.pre¶ ↑

• Set stop signal which should be used to stop a process after a timeout or used to terminate a process. This can be used to stop processes running docker + "systemd". If you send a systemd-enable container SIGINT it will be stopped.

• Added a configurable amount of time after a command was started - startup_wait_time. Otherwise you get problems when a process takes to long to startup when you run in background and want to sent it a signal.

• Replace <variable> in commandline, e.g. <pid-last-command-started> [experimental]

• Added announce formatter for time spans, e.g. startup_wait_time

• All process classes, e.g. BasicProcess, SpawnProcess, etc., are marked as private. Users should use run(‘cmd’) and not use the classes directly.

• rvm-methods are deprecated. They are too ruby specific.

0.10.2¶ ↑

• Fixed problem in regex after merge of step definitions

0.10.1¶ ↑

• Merged remove steps for file and directory from 4 into 2 step definitions

0.10.0¶ ↑

• Fix "#exit_timeout" is deprecated error (#314)

0.10.0.pre2¶ ↑

• Take over code from RSpec::Support::ObjectFormatter since rspec-support is not intended for public use.

0.10.0.pre¶ ↑

• Add some new steps to make writing documentation easier using “cucumber”, “rspec”, “minitest” together with “aruba” - see Feature for some examples

• Write output of commands directly to disk if SpawnProcess is used (see 85d74fcc)

• Refactored API of cucumber steps to reduce the need for more methods and make it easier for users to write their own steps (#306)

• Added aruba init to the cli command to setup environment for aruba (issue #308)

• Added new method delete_environment_variable to remove environment variable

• Added work around because of method name conflict between Capybara and RSpec (1939c404)

• Deprecated Aruba/Reporting before we remove it

0.9.0.pre2¶ ↑

• Redefine to_s and inspect for BasicProcess to reduce the sheer amount of information, if a command produces a lot of output

• Add have_output-, have_output_on_stderr, have_output_on_stdout-matchers

• Replace all assert_* and check_*-methods through expectations

• Add hook @announce-output to output both, stderr and stdout

• Add a lot of documentation (#260)

• Replace last_command through last_command_started and last_command_stopped to make it more explicit

• Improve syntax highlighting in cucumber feature tests by adding programming language to """-blocks

• Rename tags @ignore-* to @unsupported-on-*

• Introduce our own BaseMatcher-class to remove the dependency to RSpec‘s private matcher APIs

• Now we make the process started via SpawnProcess the leader of the group to kill all sub-processes more reliably
