Caddeus 0.4

Some major changes have happened:

• Automatic test discovery has been added. It's no longer required to manually define tests.
• Multiple tests per unit are now supported.

And there are other minor but important changes too:

• Added a tweakable way to rebuild the whole project automatically if the GNUmakefile changes.
• Temporary files (test objects, binaries and timestamps) are now built to a hidden unified directory named .caddeus.
• NDEBUG is no longer defined on release trees.
• Unused function parameters are treated as warnings by default now.
• Overall code quality has been improved.

Caddeus 0.3

This is the third development release. The GNUmakefile has been tested in 4 or 5 projects, from simple and personal to third-party, testing its adaptability. Changes from 0.2 include:

• Added automatic support for the Clang static analyzer. It will run after CppCheck. It can be disabled with SKIP_CLANG=y or by the presence of the RELEASE file.
• Support for projects that have the Makefile in a directory and their sources in a directory under (like src/ or source/).
• The NDEBUG symbol is automatically defined when the RELEASE file is present. Useful to remove assert() checks from production code.
• Dependency files and timestamps have been moved to a hidden .caddeus directory. This helps keep the working directory tidier.
• Compilation is stricter by default. The default Makefile includes -Wextra and -Werror and has a WNO_ERROR variable so you can suppress GCC warnings there, like -Wno-error=unused-variable or -Wno-unused-parameter if you don't even want a warning about that (useful for programs based on FUSE). This change does not appear in the fixed section. Must be adapted manually. Take a look at the source code to see what it wants to use by default.
• Fixed: libraries in GCC linking process must be invoked last instead of first.

Caddeus 0.2

This is the second development release of Caddeus. Changes to the first release include:

• Support for end-to-end scripted tests by the usage of the .tt extension.
• Reorganization of the makefile so that usually-immutable sections are together. This is to make it easy to update the Caddeus makefile on projects that already adopted it.
• Support for test-specific library linking via testname_TEST_LIBS variables.
• Optional timeout support to prevent tests from running forever on infinite cycles.
• The project name dropped the "framework" word.
• Added automatic memory leaking checks if Valgrind is available.
• Added automatic static analysis if cppcheck is available.
