Expect for .NET version 2.0.1 released

Thu, 31 Jul 2014 00:00:00 +0000

I’ve recently released version 2.0.1 of Expect for .NET library. In this post you will find list of changes, what unexpected behavior was fixed and next release announcement.

Changelog

Repair Bug by Mark Rain (CC BY 2.0)

The only change is fix of matching mechanism used to find expected string in output. Previous versions used regular expressions matching. Because there was not a word about it in documentation, blog posts or tutorials the matching mechanism produced unexpected results when there were used special characters like ‘*’, ‘?’, ‘$’, ‘.’, etc. I decided that this is bug and fixed it in this version.

Expect for .NET 1.2.0 overview

Expect for .NET 1.2.0 introduced one major change not strictly connected to code. New versioning system. Some of you probably noticed that I was looking for good versioning system. Now I found the one with clear and strictly defined rules - Semantic Versioning (http://semver.org). Below is shortcut of rules from mentioned webpage:

Expect for .NET 1.1.38 released

Tue, 21 Jan 2014 00:00:00 +0000

Today was released Expect for .NET 1.1.38. The new release contains a few minor changes in API, some improvements for users and changes in existing implementation.

New version can be downloaded from github or nuget.

Expect for .NET 1.0.1 released

Wed, 15 Jan 2014 00:00:00 +0000

Three days ago I released Expect for .NET 1.0.1. The release contains solved defect 14434.

The above mentioned defect is the ugly one as it impacted on API and it is not backward compatible. I decided to fix that as it was found just after release 1.0.0 so it shouldn’t impact on many users. And updated API may increase comfort of using the library.

The incompatibility lays in naming convention, the function names were in camelCase in release 1.0.0 and in version 1.0.1 it was changed to use PascalCase as it is commonly practiced in most libraries.
