Created Release: TestApi v0.6 (Feb 07, 2011)

ivom — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 23:57:13 GMT

TestApi v0.6 comes with the following changes:

TestApi code development has been moved to Codeplex:
- Moved TestApi soluton to VS 2010;
- Moved all source code to Codeplex. All development work is done there now.
Fault Injection API:
- Integrated the unmanaged FaultInjectionEngine.dll COM component in the build;
- Cleaned up FaultInjectionEngine.dll to build at warning level 4;
- Implemented “FaultScope” which allows for in-process fault injection;
- Added automation scripts & sample program;
- Added smarter method identification to FaultRule & TriggerIfCalledBy(etc) to use a MethodInfo object rather than a string;
- Significant performance improvement, over 5000x faster in one scenario;
- Fixed several bugs in FaultDispatcher.
Input Simulation API:
- Added Mouse.DragTo(…) method;
- Extended Keyboard.Type(…) to be able to type non-ASCII strings.
Leak Detection API:
- Modified the API to work in 64-bit environments
Object Comparison API:
- Renamed ObjectComparer to ObjectGraphComparer and made the class more cohesive;
- Added support for encoding object graphs to and decoding them from arbitrary streams;
- Added support for annotating an object graph node with a custom comparison strategy;
- Added support for object graph factories type specializations;
- Added new acceptance tests.
String Generation API:
- Added StringFactory.GenerateRandomString(Regex regex, int seed) -- support for generating strings that conform to a given regular expression;
- Added CommonRegularExpressions class.
Documentation and test fixes:
- Switched API documentation to SandCastle-generated documentation – this enables generation of namespace documentation;
- Updated the namespace documentation;
- Updated the test namespaces for better discoverability of the tests;
- Various other small fixes.

Updated Release: TestApi v0.5 (Jun 17, 2010)

ivom — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 06:26:07 GMT

TestApi v0.5 comes with the following changes:

A new Theme Configuration API allowing programmatic management of system themes;
Text String Generation API additions:
- Added support for multiple UnicodeRanges for string generation (through the StringProperties.UnicodeRanges collection);
- Added new acceptance tests for BiDi text strings.
Visual Verification API additions:
- Added Snapshot.Find(Snapshot subImage); and Snapshot.Find(Snapshot subImage, SnapshotVerifier verifier); methods to allow discovery of a sub-image in a snapshot.
Combinatorial Variation Generation API modifications and additions:
- Converted constraints to a LINQ-based syntax;
- Added support for generics;
- Added support for declarative models (attribute-based models);
- Added support for equivalence classes.
Fault Injection API:
- Enabled the use of fault injection for .NET 4 binaries.
Input Injection API:
- Moved the Input Injection API to TestApiCore.dll;
- Added new Key and MouseButton enumerations, removing the dependency of the API on WPF;
- Added new acceptance tests.
Command-line Parsing API:
- Fixed a documentation bug for CommandLineParser;
- Added new acceptance tests for Command.
xUnit 1.5:
- Switched to using xUnit 1.5 for acceptance tests. xUnit 1.5 delivers a superior GUI tool making running and debugging individual tests much easier.
Numerous documentation improvements and fixes, both in the conceptual documents and in the MSDN-style API documentation.
