Changes for version 2.3630 - 2019-01-04

  • added new identify() method in Core (closes #82)
  • added new binary "pidentify" that gets installed with the distribution
  • update test files to exit if test file specific env vars aren't set before checking for PI_BOARD
  • added missing ICs and sensors to the test section in POD, and added information on newly added test environment variables
  • change a markdown format to POD format in FAQ (fixes #81)
  • fix wire colour for the latch pin on the shift register in the test platform diagrams (fixes #80)
  • in t/15.pwm_spi_adc.t test file, we now set RPI_ADC=1 if we've successfully reached the sudo load
  • pinmap binary now uses "/usr/bin/env perl" as the shebang line instead of "/usr/bin/perl"
  • implemented a hard-wired and soldered (ie. more permanent) unit test platform, replacing the breadboard. Tickets open to add further sensors and ICs very soon
  • removed "-T" (taint mode) in stock test files
  • fix issue in Core.pm POD where we had broken links to internal headings
  • removed the "setup" test files. They were disabled ages ago, and since we don't overtly advertise the various setup methods, we're no longer testing them
  • re-enabled the check_pin_status() test function in t/RPiTest.pm (closes #88)
  • removed the sudo requirement for t/75-serial.t tests
  • t/75-serial.t puts()/gets() test updated due to non-printable char (fixes #89)
