Known Issues / Back-Compatibility:

  • Headers are returned from tests as unicode key, value pairs now

1.6.0 Mon Oct 12 07:30:00 2015 -0400

Features:

  • BETA: Add a type testing comparator to assist with validating request/header bodies
    • Issue: #90 (derived from online feedback)
  • BETA: Allow setting custom Curl options with the curl_option_optionname field on tests
  • BETA: support HTTP method types besides GET/PUT/POST/DELETE
  • BETA: support setting request body on all request types, if present
    • Allows (for example) DELETE methods that set a request body
    • Caveat: does not set length if 0
  • raw_body extractor that returns the full HTTP response body
    • Requested in: #71
  • Add test coverage script (uses 'coverage', which requires install)

Bugfixes:

  • Fix bug with headers not being passed to extract_bind extrators, which caused:
  • Extractors did not raise an exception on failure: #64
  • Fix issue with use of curl WRITEDATA opt on CentOS 6 / Python 2.6 (use writefunction instead)
  • Fix/document installation issues with dependencies

Known Issues / Back-Compatibility:

  • Minor: generator letters/uppercase/lowercase are now always ASCII, not locale-aware
    • Driven by python 3 compatibility, and probably more "correct" but still a change
  • Headers are now lists of (key, value) pairs, extractors need to be aware of this
    • Will only be an issue for people using custom header extractors
    • After some serious googling, as far as I can tell, nobody is using headers in custom extensions yet
    • This can be patched into a back-compatibile approach if it breaks anyone

Misc:

  • Automation start (Jenkins setup, initial testing Dockerfiles) including 2.6 and 2.7 compat
  • Dockerfiles to create build/test environments
  • run_tests.sh now exits on first failure, and returns exit code (for automation)
