[ANN] test-loop 11.0.0

test-loop - Continuous testing for Ruby with fork/eval
GitHub - sunaku/test-loop: MOVED TO sunaku/testr

What is it?

test-loop is a fast continuous testing tool for Ruby that automatically
detects and tests changes in your application in an efficient manner:

  1. Absorbs the test execution overhead into the main Ruby process.
  2. Forks to run your test files without overhead and in parallel.
  3. Avoids running unchanged test blocks inside changed test files.

What is new?

Incompatible changes:

  • The test/loop/rails preset has been internalized and is now applied
    automatically if your test execution overhead includes Ruby on Rails.

New features:

  • If you are using Rails 3, test-loop will automatically set
    config.cache_classes = false for your test environment.

Bug fixes:

  • Avoid deadlock errors when printing output from Test::Unit and
    MiniTest. (Brian D. Burns)

    `write': deadlock detected (fatal)
    
  • Signaled worker termination is neither pass nor fail.
    Do not treat it as a failure by printing the log file.

  • Ignore SIGINT in workers; only master must honor it.

I just released version 11.0.1 containing the following bug fix:

  • Only attempt to define Railtie if the Rails version supports it.
