Changes in 1.4.0

• We now have a manual at http://hspec.github.io/. The sources are in doc/. It’s still work in progress. Contributions are very welcome!
• The Haddock documentation now indicates the stability of each exposed module. Test.Hspec is now considered stable.

  • --html can be used to produce an HTML report
  • --maximum-generated-tests can be used to specify QuickCheck’s maxSuccess

  • --re-run only runs spec items that previously failed. This is undocumented, experimental and only works within GHCi (use :reload / :main)!
• Runner functions exported from Test.Hspec.Runner new expect a monadic spec.
• fromHUnitTest has been added. It can be used to run existing HUnit test suites with Hspec.
• The Example instance for HUnit Tests has been deprecated. fromHUnitTest can be used instead. The primary motivation is, that fromHUnitTest gives more detailed reporting for nested HUnit test suites.
• Test.Hspec.Monadic has been deprecated, all functionality is available through one of Test.Hspec, Test.Hspec.Core or Test.Hspec.Runner.
• More of Hspec’s internals are now exposed from Test.Hspec.Core
• All runner functions for the core spec type (aka as non-monadic spec) have been deprecated, use e.g. Test.Hspec.hspec . fromSpecList instead. The motivation is to provide an API that does not expose colliding names.
• Some other stuff from Test.Hspec.Core that collides with other parts of the API has been deprecated. Compatible alternatives are given in each deprecation message.
• The default formatter now produces less whitespace (#73) + other minor improvements
• The formatter API has been revamped.

• The number of pending examples is now printed after each test run (#85)
• --verbose has been added (#87)

Changes in 1.3.0

• Test.Hspec now re-exports the monadic API. If you still use the non-monadic API, you can use Test.Hspec.Core as a drop-in replacement.

• hspec-expectations, a set of combinators that allow to express expectations about the outcome of code examples, is now included with Hspec. Have a look at the [README of hspec-expectations] (http://github.com/sol/hspec-expectations#readme) for a short introduction.

• hspec-discover, a mechanism for automatic spec discovery, is now an official part of Hspec. Have a look at [hspec-discover’s README] (http://github.com/hspec/hspec/tree/master/hspec-discover#readme) for a short introduction.

Changes in 1.2.0

• hspec has been removed, and hspecX has been renamed to hspec (see #71)

• hHspec now returns a summary of the test run.

• The time reporting after a test run is not colored anymore.

Changes in 1.1.3

• Test.Hspec warns now about future changes: It will re-export Test.Hspec.Monadic in the future. If you still use the non-monadic API, you can either use Test.Hspec.Core as a drop-in replacement, or migrate your code to the monadic API.

  The monadic API is more stable and easier to use. Now is a good time to switch!

• Test.Hspec.Core is now a proper superset of Test.Hspec

Changes in 1.1.2

• All descriptions of nested examples are now included in summary for failing examples

• context is now an alias for describe

Changes in 1.1.1
