CFUnit v2.0 Beta Release

[Robert Blackburn]

Hi everyone, just posting to let you know that I've released a beta
version of CFUnit v2.0.

What's new in this release? Well, other then the usually bug fixes, I
have cleaned up the code a bit. Hopefully this will make it easier for
people to read the files and contribute, and therefore improve the
project in the long run. There is still a lot of work to do to get the
files truly clean and easy to read, but it's a step in the right
direction. I plan on adding the CFCDocs to the web site soon too,
which will also help with this.

This version has also been tested on BlueDragon (thanks to Greg
Stewart for the help there), so this version will be available to a
wider audience.

Also, the primary change is what I call "inline testing". This means
you can include a CFML module, and write the unit tests for a CFC...
right inside the CFC it is intended to test. This is intended to help
projects that are need to be portable, and would like to avoid extra
test CFCs. They can now place the tests right inside the CFC being
tested. This is also useful when writing a CFC which is just a proof
of concept or prototype – in which case you might not want to add the
extra unit test file to the overall project right away. You can now
write tests for those CFCs quickly and easily without the need to add
more files to the project. There is no documentation on this new
feature yet – but feel free to email me if you are interested in
exploring this. Documentation will be available prior to the final
release however.

This version is 100% backward compatible, so you should be able to
install it and not have to make any changes to your existing unit
tests.

There are a few other feature I aim to include in the final release
that did not make it into the beta version. But I wanted or get this
out there and see if I can get some feedback or suggestions, and
hopefully clear out any undetected bugs.

So if you are interested, please feel free to download the beta
version off the project website:

Thank You

Hi, I'm a big fan of cfunit. Attached are an automated runner template
for cfunit and associated application.cfm that I would like to
contribute to the project. Put it in a directory that has unit tests
below it and it will generate a list of all the tests in that dir and
its subdirs . Click on a link to a test and run that test. Click on the
link to a directory and run all tests below that dir. After you run the
test you get the results and the links back ready to run the next test.
Basically it generates a runner interface for all your unit tests in a
project.

I looked at CFUNIT a few years back, when I think it had issues using it
against MACH-II as it was built in MACH-II I think not sure too long ago :-)

But just wondered what the current state of play was with using CFUNIT with
a MACH-II Application?
