Release notes for Q2.2016

  • Making Greentea build agnostic by introducing a test spec input switch
    • Add new command line switch --test-spec <file_name> that takes a json files argument
    • Add test_spec.json as default name for --test-spec switch
    • All build systems producing test_spec.json will be picked up by greentea automatically
    • Moved yotta specific code and assumptions in mbed_yotta_api.py that now produces same test spec
    • README.md updated with test specification format and usage
    • Add recursive search for test_spec.json in mbed-os and mbed-os app dir level
  • Add support for mbed-os/mbed/hal/targets.json meta-data
  • Add support for SKIPPED test cases; also in in JUNIT report
  • Add support for greentea-client v1.3.0 (__testcase_name support)
  • Add support for command line switch --grm between greentea and mbedhtrun`; this is a support for Global Resource Manager APIs
  • Add HTML report generation with new command line switch --report-html <file_name>
  • We are now less verbose without -V flag!
  • This release alligns dependency versions for mbedhtrun and mbed-ls to support Remote Resource Manager feature (--grm switch)
  • Add to -n switch simple test-name-prefix* filter to filter test cases with common prefix name

  • Add new unit tests to increase unit test coverage from 29% to 34%
  • Adding test case result text to test report
  • Yotta module and test spec supporting build systems now coexist in this release
  • Greentea will check for yotta target first from local .yotta.json file instead of calling yotta --plain target command line
  • Add lexicographic order to switch --list for test specification
  • Modify host tests crawler to work with smaller test_spec.json with absolute path in binaries::path
  • Set -S command line switch as default so Greentea will NOT try to build first (before testing)
  • Polishing: Improve messaging when not all properties of DUT are detected with mbed-ls
  • Polishing: Replace available devices and MUTs in use for test prints with pretty table
  • Polishing: Add unit tests for parsing of __testcase_count and __testcase_name
  • Polishing: Add information about origin of passes / failures in miscount warning
  • Polishing: Add API to fetch mbed-greentea package version string
  • Bug-fix: Fixed JSON formatted report (--report-text <file_name>); it is now stored to disk, not on screen
  • Bug-fix: TypeError caused by incorrect formatting of error message in run_host_test() function
  • Bug-fix: Greentea spawns multiple process for htrun equal to entries in test_spec.json
  • Bug-fix: Serial port baudrate is doubled for multiple builds from test specification
  • Bug-fix: Switch --list does not enumerate tests from test specification
