ZenTest 2.3.0 Released

[Ryan Davis]

ZenTest version 2.3.0 has been released!

http://www.zenspider.com/ZSS/Products/ZenTest/

** DESCRIPTION:

ZenTest scans your target and unit-test code and writes your missing
code based on simple naming rules, enabling XP at a much quicker
pace. ZenTest only works with Ruby and Test::Unit.

There are two strategies intended for ZenTest: test conformance
auditing and rapid XP.

For auditing, ZenTest provides an excellent means of finding methods
that have slipped through the testing process. I've run it against my
own software and found I missed a lot in a well tested
package. Writing those tests found 4 bugs I had no idea existed.

ZenTest can also be used to evaluate generated code and execute your
tests, allowing for very rapid development of both tests and
implementation.

** FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

+ Scans your ruby code and tests and generates missing methods for you.
+ Includes a very helpful filter for Test::Unit output called
unit_diff.rb
+ Includes a LinuxJournal article on testing with ZenTest written by
Pat Eyler.

Changes:

+ 6 minor enhancements
+ Massively expanded the method name mappings.
+ Added -r flag to reverse map names, for Rails style testing.
+ Added -e to auto eval tests generated.
+ Added -b & -c flags in unit_diff (passed to diff)
+ Added install and uninstall rules to Makefile.
+ Added some more doco to README.txt
+ 7 bug fixes
+ Cleaned up and refactored tests.
+ Changed the way files are generated, to accomodate new flags.
+ Added some more tests.
+ Added $ZENTEST=true
+ Fixed the one-liner diff bug.
+ Cleaned up multi-line string diffs by unescaping \n
+ Cleaned result for flunks.

Ahhhh! Now this is the kind of smarts I was talking ago some months past.
Sounds great! I'll have to give it a go one of these days.
