Changes for version 0.87_01 - 2009-03-29

  • New Features
  • done_testing() allows you to declare that you have finished running tests, and how many you ran. It is a safer no_plan and effectively replaces it.
  • output() now supports scalar references.
  • Feature Changes
  • You can now run a test without first declaring a plan. This allows done_testing() to work.
  • You can now call current_test() without first declaring a plan.
  • Bug Fixes
  • skip_all() with no reason would output "1..0" which is invalid TAP. It will now always include the SKIP directive.
  • Other
  • Repository moved to github.
