=head1 NAME Changes - Apache::Test change logfile =head1 CHANGES =over 3 =item 1.03 - June 19, 2003 Instrumented Makefile.PL to unconditionally remove any old pre-installed occurrences of Apache/test.pm, which has been renamed to Apache/testold.pm in mod_perl 1.28 to avoid collisions with Apache/Test.pm on case-insensitive systems. [Stas] Apache::TestClient now handles correctly responses with no body and its response header() method is no longer case-sensitive [Stas] add skip helper shortcuts: have_min_perl_version, have_min_module_version [Stas] pass to 'use lib' only 'lib/' dirs that actually exist in autogenerated t/TEST t/SMOKE and others. [Stas] add the ASF LICENSE file to the distro [Stas] get rid of Apache::TestTrace's dependency on Apache::TestConfig as it creates too many circular use() problems. [Stas] wrap blib loading in eval block (added to autogenerated files), to prevent 'make clean' failures. [Stas] add two more variants of each of the tracing functions. If the '_mark' suffix is appended (e.g., 'error_mark') the trace will start with the filename and the line number the function was called from. If the '_sub' suffix is appended (e.g., 'error_info') the trace will start with the name of the subroutine the function was called from. [Stas] add support for a new env var APACHE_TEST_TRACE_LEVEL, used to override the tracing level. It propogates the overriden (either by env var APACHE_TEST_TRACE_LEVEL or -trace option) value to the server-side, so we can use Apache::TestTrace in mod_perl handlers, and be able enable/disable tracing from the commmand line. This way we don't have to comment out debug prints. [Stas] =item 1.02 not released =item 1.01 - May 1, 2003 improved support for 3rd party modules test configuration setup: automatically include 'use blib' in autogenerated t/TEST and add 'use Apache2' in the startup file for mod_perl 2.0. [Stas] new configuration option: -libmodperl [path/to/]mod_perl.so (so one can build several DSO objects, rename them, so several builds can co-exist under the same LIBEXECDIR and test them all. Mainly useful for testing 3rd party modules, with different mod_perl DSO builds. [Stas] set $Apache::Test5005compat::VERSION because of the bogus warnings generated by EU::MM::parse_version() when it sees $NOT_THIS_MODULE::VERSION [Randal L. Schwartz ] a few fixes in Makefile.PL and t/TEST.PL to work with perl-5.005_03 [Stas] perlpods are found either in the 'pods/' or 'pod/' subdirs [Randal L. Schwartz ] Autoconfigure Alias /getfiles-* only if the corresponding targets exist [Stas] =item 1.00 - Apr 28, 2003 when inheriting httpd.conf on some platforms SERVER_CONFIG_FILE is an absolute path, so try to use that if found. [Haroon Rafique ] new Apache::Test functions: have_min_apache_version - to require a minimal Apache version. have_apache_version - to require a specific Apache version. [Stas] Apache::TestUtil API change: write_perl_script => t_write_perl_script write_shell_script => t_write_shell_script chown => t_chown All 3 functions are now optionally exported [Geoffrey Young]. Provide a new request macro _BODY_ASSERT to replace _BODY in cases where the client part of the test directly prints to the output, in order to avoid skipped tests instead of reporting the failure of the server side. Use it in automatically generated tests. [Stas] httpd (1.3 && 2) / winFU have problems when the first path's segment includes ':' (security precaution which breaks the rfc) so we can't use /TestFoo::bar as path_info in Apache::Tests. Adjusting all tests to use /TestFoo__bar. [Stas] change Apache::TestConfig::filter_args to accept arguments which aren't only key/value pairs, but also tokens like 'FOO=1' [Stas] In autogenerated t/TEST, make sure not to include 'use Apache2' for the mod_perl 2.0 build itself [Stas] avoid starting httpd with 'Group root' when running the test suite under root [Stas] add support for 'make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 "TEST_FILES=foo bar"' [Stas] Apache::Test now can run 'make test' under 'root', without permission problems (e.g. when files need to be written), it'll chown all the files under t/ to the user chosen to run the server with, before running the tests and will restore the permissions at the end. [Stas] don't inherit loading of the mod_perl object from the system-wide config, since Apache::TestRunPerl already configures it [Stas] Support two new shortcuts for skip functionality: - have_threads: checks whether both Apache and Perl support threads - under_construction: to print a consistent/clear skip reason [Stas] Support blocks in .pm files, so we can have a full manual control over generated config sections. These sections are fully parsed and variables are substituted, including vhosts. [Stas] Implement a more robust autogenerated client .t test in Apache::TestConfigPerl. Before this fix if the server side returned 500, the test would get skipped, not good. Now it will die a horrible death. [Stas] Before v1.0 most changes were logged in modperl-2.0/Changes (see mod_perl <= v1.99_08). =back
