TypedDevs/bashunit 0.28.0

on GitHub

Added inline test filtering, a redesigned subcommand-based CLI, safer lifecycle behavior, and runner performance.

✨ Improvements

• Added inline filter syntax to run specific tests directly from a file:
  • path::function_name — run only the matching test function
  • path:line_number — execute the test located at the specified line
• Added --show-skipped and --show-incomplete options to surface test outcomes that previously remained hidden
  • Displays skipped and incomplete tests in a dedicated summary section

🛠️ Changes

• BREAKING: Introduced a modern subcommand-based CLI architecture
  Provides clearer workflows and replaces several legacy flags:
  • bashunit test [path] — run tests (default; backward-compatible with bashunit [path])
  • bashunit bench [path] — run benchmarks (replaces --bench)
  • bashunit doc [filter] — show assertion documentation (replaces --doc)
  • bashunit init [dir] — bootstrap a project (replaces --init)
  • bashunit learn — interactive tutorial (replaces --learn)
  • bashunit upgrade — upgrade to the latest version (replaces --upgrade)
• BREAKING: Tests now stop at the first assertion failure within a test function
  • Aligns with PHPUnit and Jest default behavior
  • Skips remaining assertions in the same test after a failure
  • Independent test functions continue to run normally

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Lifecycle hooks (set_up, tear_down) now stop executing remaining commands after the first failure
• If set_up_before_script fails, all tests are correctly marked as failed

⚡ Performance

• Optimized assertion guard logic using integer comparison instead of string comparison for faster evaluation
