2.11.0

In prior versions of Ginkgo specs the CLI filter flags (e.g. --focus, --label-filter) would override any programmatic focus. This behavior has proved surprising and confusing in at least the following ways:

users cannot combine programmatic filters and CLI filters to more efficiently select subsets of tests
CLI filters can override programmatic focus on CI systems resulting in an exit code of 0 despite the presence of (incorrectly!) committed focused specs.

Going forward Ginkgo will AND all programmatic and CLI filters. Moreover, the presence of any programmatic focused tests will always result in a non-zero exit code.

This change is technically a change in Ginkgo's external contract and may require some users to make changes to successfully adopt. Specifically: it's possible some users were intentionally using CLI filters to override programmatic focus. If this is you please open an issue so we can explore solutions to the underlying problem you are trying to solve.

Fixes

Programmatic focus is no longer overwrriten by CLI filters [d6bba86]

Ginkgo now includes a tools.go file in the root directory of the ginkgo package. This should allow modules that simply go get github.com/onsi/ginkgo/v2 to also pull in the CLI dependencies.

2.8.0

Features

Introduce GinkgoHelper() to track and exclude helper functions from potential CodeLocations [e19f556]

Modeled after testing.T.Helper(). Now, rather than write code like:

func helper(model Model) {
    Expect(model).WithOffset(1).To(BeValid())
    Expect(model.SerialNumber).WithOffset(1).To(MatchRegexp(/[a-f0-9]*/))
}

you can stop tracking offsets (which makes nesting composing helpers nearly impossible) and simply write:

func helper(model Model) {
    GinkgoHelper()
    Expect(model).To(BeValid())
    Expect(model.SerialNumber).To(MatchRegexp(/[a-f0-9]*/))
}

Introduce GinkgoLabelFilter() and Label().MatchesLabelFilter() to make it possible to programmatically match filters (fixes #1119) [2f6597c]

You can now write code like this:

BeforeSuite(func() {
	if Label("slow").MatchesLabelFilter(GinkgoLabelFilter()) {
		// do slow setup
	}

	if Label("fast").MatchesLabelFilter(GinkgoLabelFilter()) {
		// do fast setup
	}
})

to programmatically check whether a given set of labels will match the configured --label-filter.

2.5.0

Ginkgo output now includes a timeline-view of the spec

This commit changes Ginkgo's default output. Spec details are now presented as a timeline that includes events that occur during the spec lifecycle interleaved with any GinkgoWriter content. This makes is much easier to understand the flow of a spec and where a given failure occurs.

The --progress, --slow-spec-threshold, --always-emit-ginkgo-writer flags and the SuppressProgressReporting decorator have all been deprecated. Instead the existing -v and -vv flags better capture the level of verbosity to display. However, a new --show-node-events flag is added to include node > Enter and < Exit events in the spec timeline.

In addition, JUnit reports now include the timeline (rendered with -vv) and custom JUnit reports can be configured and generated using GenerateJUnitReportWithConfig(report types.Report, dst string, config JunitReportConfig)

Code should continue to work unchanged with this version of Ginkgo - however if you have tooling that was relying on the specific output format of Ginkgo you may run into issues. Ginkgo's console output is not guaranteed to be stable for tooling and automation purposes. You should, instead, use Ginkgo's JSON format to build tooling on top of as it has stronger guarantees to be stable from version to version.

2.3.1 Fixes

Several users were invoking ginkgo by installing the latest version of the cli via go install github.com/onsi/ginkgo/v2/ginkgo@latest. When 2.3.0 was released this resulted in an influx of issues as CI systems failed due to a change in the internal contract between the Ginkgo CLI and the Ginkgo library. Ginkgo only supports running the same version of the library as the cli (which is why both are packaged in the same repository).

With this patch release, the ginkgo CLI can now identify a version mismatch and emit a helpful error message.

Ginkgo cli can identify version mismatches and emit a helpful error message [bc4ae2f]

2.3.0

Interruptible Nodes and Timeouts

Ginkgo now supports per-node and per-spec timeouts on interruptible nodes. Check out the documentation for all the details but the gist is you can now write specs like this:

It("is interruptible", func(ctx SpecContext) { // or context.Context instead of SpecContext, both are valid.
    // do things until `ctx.Done()` is closed, for example:
    req, err := http.NewRequestWithContext(ctx, "POST", "/build-widgets", nil)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccured())
    _, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccured())

    Eventually(client.WidgetCount).WithContext(ctx).Should(Equal(17))
}, NodeTimeout(time.Second*20), GracePeriod(5*time.Second))

and have Ginkgo ensure that the node completes before the timeout elapses. If it does elapse, or if an external interrupt is received (e.g. ^C) then Ginkgo will cancel the context and wait for the Grace Period for the node to exit before proceeding with any cleanup nodes associated with the spec. The ctx provided by Ginkgo can also be passed down to Gomega's Eventually to have all assertions within the node governed by a single deadline.

Features

Ginkgo now records any additional failures that occur during the cleanup of a failed spec. In prior versions this information was quietly discarded, but the introduction of a more rigorous approach to timeouts and interruptions allows Ginkgo to better track subsequent failures.
SpecContext also provides a mechanism for third-party libraries to provide additional information when a Progress Report is generated. Gomega uses this to provide the current state of an Eventually().WithContext() assertion when a Progress Report is requested.
DescribeTable now exits with an error if it is not passed any Entries [a4c9865]

2.2.0

Generate real-time Progress Reports [f91377c]

Ginkgo can now generate Progress Reports to point users at the current running line of code (including a preview of the actual source code) and a best guess at the most relevant subroutines.

These Progress Reports allow users to debug stuck or slow tests without exiting the Ginkgo process. A Progress Report can be generated at any time by sending Ginkgo a SIGINFO (^T on MacOS/BSD) or SIGUSR1.

In addition, the user can specify --poll-progress-after and --poll-progress-interval to have Ginkgo start periodically emitting progress reports if a given node takes too long. These can be overriden/set on a per-node basis with the PollProgressAfter and PollProgressInterval decorators.

Progress Reports are emitted to stdout, and also stored in the machine-redable report formats that Ginkgo supports.

Ginkgo also uses this progress reporting infrastructure under the hood when handling timeouts and interrupts. This yields much more focused, useful, and informative stack traces than previously.

Features

BeforeSuite, AfterSuite, SynchronizedBeforeSuite, SynchronizedAfterSuite, and ReportAfterSuite now support (the relevant subset of) decorators. These can be passed in after the callback functions that are usually passed into these nodes.

As a result the signature of these methods has changed and now includes a trailing args ...interface{}. For most users simply using the DSL, this change is transparent. However if you were assigning one of these functions to a custom variable (or passing it around) then your code may need to change to reflect the new signature.

Profiling suites with focused specs no longer generates an erroneous failure message [8fbfa02]
Several documentation typos fixed. Big thanks to everyone who helped catch them and report/fix them!

2.1.1

See https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/MIGRATING_TO_V2 for details on V2.

Fixes

Suites that only import the new dsl packages are now correctly identified as Ginkgo suites [ec17e17]

2.1.0

See https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/MIGRATING_TO_V2 for details on V2.

2.1.0 is a minor release with a few tweaks:

Introduce new DSL packages to enable users to pick-and-choose which portions of the DSL to dot-import. [90868e2] More details here.
Add error check for invalid/nil parameters to DescribeTable [6f8577e]
Myriad docs typos fixed (thanks everyone!) [718542a, ecb7098, 146654c, a8f9913, 6bdffde, 03dcd7e]

2.0.0

See https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/MIGRATING_TO_V2

1.16.5

Ginkgo 2.0 now has a Release Candidate. 1.16.5 advertises the existence of the RC. 1.16.5 deprecates GinkgoParallelNode in favor of GinkgoParallelProcess

You can silence the RC advertisement by setting an ACK_GINKGO_RC=true environment variable or creating a file in your home directory called .ack-ginkgo-rc

1.16.4

Fixes

1.16.4 retracts 1.16.3. There are no code changes. The 1.16.3 tag was associated with the wrong commit and an attempt to change it after-the-fact has proven problematic. 1.16.4 retracts 1.16.3 in Ginkgo's go.mod and creates a new, correctly tagged, release.

1.4.0 7/16/2017

ginkgo now provides a hint if you accidentally forget to run ginkgo bootstrap to generate a *_suite_test.go file that actually invokes the Ginkgo test runner. #345
thanks to improvements in go test -c ginkgo no longer needs to fix Go's compilation output to ensure compilation errors are expressed relative to the CWD. [#357]
ginkgo watch -watchRegExp=... allows you to specify a custom regular expression to watch. Only files matching the regular expression are watched for changes (the default is \.go$) [#356]
ginkgo now always emits compilation output. Previously, only failed compilation output was printed out. [#277]
ginkgo -requireSuite now fails the test run if there are *_test.go files but go test fails to detect any tests. Typically this means you forgot to run ginkgo bootstrap to generate a suite file. [#344]
ginkgo -timeout=DURATION allows you to adjust the timeout for the entire test suite (default is 24 hours) [#248]

1.3.0 3/28/2017

Improvements:

Significantly improved parallel test distribution. Now instead of pre-sharding test cases across workers (which can result in idle workers and poor test performance) Ginkgo uses a shared queue to keep all workers busy until all tests are complete. This improves test-time performance and consistency.
Skip(message) can be used to skip the current test.
Added extensions/table - a Ginkgo DSL for Table Driven Tests
Add GinkgoRandomSeed() - shorthand for config.GinkgoConfig.RandomSeed
Support for retrying flaky tests with --flakeAttempts
ginkgo ./... now recurses as you'd expect
Added Specify a synonym for It
Support colorise on Windows
Broader support for various go compilation flags in the ginkgo CLI

Bug Fixes:

Ginkgo tests now fail when you panic(nil) (#167)

1.2.0 5/31/2015

Improvements

ginkgo -coverpkg calls down to go test -coverpkg (#160)
ginkgo -afterSuiteHook COMMAND invokes the passed-in COMMAND after a test suite completes (#152)
Relaxed requirement for Go 1.4+. ginkgo now works with Go v1.3+ (#166)

1.2.0-beta

Ginkgo now requires Go 1.4+

Improvements:

Call reporters in reverse order when announcing spec completion -- allows custom reporters to emit output before the default reporter does.
Improved focus behavior. Now, this:
```
FDescribe("Some describe", func() {
    It("A", func() {})

    FIt("B", func() {})
})
```
will run B but not A. This tends to be a common usage pattern when in the thick of writing and debugging tests.
When SIGINT is received, Ginkgo will emit the contents of the GinkgoWriter before running the AfterSuite. Useful for debugging stuck tests.
When --progress is set, Ginkgo will write test progress (in particular, Ginkgo will say when it is about to run a BeforeEach, AfterEach, It, etc...) to the GinkgoWriter. This is useful for debugging stuck tests and tests that generate many logs.
Improved output when an error occurs in a setup or teardown block.
When --dryRun is set, Ginkgo will walk the spec tree and emit to its reporter without actually running anything. Best paired with -v to understand which specs will run in which order.
Add By to help document long Its. By simply writes to the GinkgoWriter.
Add support for precompiled tests:
- ginkgo build <path-to-package> will now compile the package, producing a file named package.test
- The compiled package.test file can be run directly. This runs the tests in series.
- To run precompiled tests in parallel, you can run: ginkgo -p package.test
Support bootstrapping and generateing Agouti specs.
ginkgo generate and ginkgo bootstrap now honor the package name already defined in a given directory
The ginkgo CLI ignores SIGQUIT. Prevents its stack dump from interlacing with the underlying test suite's stack dump.
The ginkgo CLI now compiles tests into a temporary directory instead of the package directory. This necessitates upgrading to Go v1.4+.
ginkgo -notify now works on Linux

Bug Fixes:

If --skipPackages is used and all packages are skipped, Ginkgo should exit 0.
Fix tempfile leak when running in parallel
Fix incorrect failure message when a panic occurs during a parallel test run
Fixed an issue where a pending test within a focused context (or a focused test within a pending context) would skip all other tests.
Be more consistent about handling SIGTERM as well as SIGINT
When interrupted while concurrently compiling test suites in the background, Ginkgo now cleans up the compiled artifacts.
Fixed a long standing bug where ginkgo -p would hang if a process spawned by one of the Ginkgo parallel nodes does not exit. (Hooray!)

1.1.0 (8/2/2014)

No changes, just dropping the beta.

1.1.0-beta (7/22/2014)

New Features:

ginkgo watch now monitors packages and their dependencies for changes. The depth of the dependency tree can be modified with the -depth flag.
Test suites with a programmatic focus (FIt, FDescribe, etc...) exit with non-zero status code, even when they pass. This allows CI systems to detect accidental commits of focused test suites.
ginkgo -p runs the testsuite in parallel with an auto-detected number of nodes.
ginkgo -tags=TAG_LIST passes a list of tags down to the go build command.
ginkgo --failFast aborts the test suite after the first failure.
ginkgo generate file_1 file_2 can take multiple file arguments.
Ginkgo now summarizes any spec failures that occurred at the end of the test run.
ginkgo --randomizeSuites will run tests suites in random order using the generated/passed-in seed.

Improvements:

ginkgo -skipPackage now takes a comma-separated list of strings. If the relative path to a package matches one of the entries in the comma-separated list, that package is skipped.
ginkgo --untilItFails no longer recompiles between attempts.
Ginkgo now panics when a runnable node (It, BeforeEach, JustBeforeEach, AfterEach, Measure) is nested within another runnable node. This is always a mistake. Any test suites that panic because of this change should be fixed.

Bug Fixes:

ginkgo boostrap and ginkgo generate no longer fail when dealing with hyphen-separated-packages.
parallel specs are now better distributed across nodes - fixed a crashing bug where (for example) distributing 11 tests across 7 nodes would panic

1.0.0 (5/24/2014)

New Features:

Add GinkgoParallelNode() - shorthand for config.GinkgoConfig.ParallelNode

Improvements:

When compilation fails, the compilation output is rewritten to present a correct relative path. Allows ⌘-clicking in iTerm open the file in your text editor.
--untilItFails and ginkgo watch now generate new random seeds between test runs, unless a particular random seed is specified.

Bug Fixes:

-cover now generates a correctly combined coverprofile when running with in parallel with multiple -nodes.
Print out the contents of the GinkgoWriter when BeforeSuite or AfterSuite fail.
Fix all remaining race conditions in Ginkgo's test suite.

1.0.0-beta (4/14/2014)

Breaking changes:

thirdparty/gomocktestreporter is gone. Use GinkgoT() instead
Modified the Reporter interface
watch is now a subcommand, not a flag.

DSL changes:

BeforeSuite and AfterSuite for setting up and tearing down test suites.
AfterSuite is triggered on interrupt (^C) as well as exit.
SynchronizedBeforeSuite and SynchronizedAfterSuite for setting up and tearing down singleton resources across parallel nodes.

CLI changes:

watch is now a subcommand, not a flag
--nodot flag can be passed to ginkgo generate and ginkgo bootstrap to avoid dot imports. This explicitly imports all exported identifiers in Ginkgo and Gomega. Refreshing this list can be done by running ginkgo nodot
Additional arguments can be passed to specs. Pass them after the -- separator
--skipPackage flag takes a regexp and ignores any packages with package names passing said regexp.
--trace flag prints out full stack traces when errors occur, not just the line at which the error occurs.

Misc:

Start using semantic versioning
Start maintaining changelog

Major refactor:

Pull out Ginkgo's internal to internal
Rename example everywhere to spec
Much more!
