Feed Description: My thoughts on Java, software development and technology.
I've been doing some work recently on tidying up TagUnit for 1.0 and a beta release is now available. To summarise, I've removed some of the redundant tags, cleaned up some of the source code and finally put some work into the user guide. I can hear the cheers of joy already!
Some of the tags that I've removed include assertScriptingVariable (the same functionality can be achieved with a combination of assertPageContextAttribute and assertEquals) and the assertCookie tags because they never seemed to work consistently. I'll probably put them back in the future. I've also removed some of the other tags that were never documented and seemed to hang around from older releases. If you find that you do need them, please do let me know and we'll sort something out.
Apart from that, I've made a few changes to the look and feel of the TagUnit webapps (tagunit-blank and tagunit-examples), really just trying to simplify the process of putting together your own testing apps.
I've put a load of work into the TagUnit user guide and I'll be refining it over the next couple of weeks. Please do take a look (I've updated the version on the TagUnit website) and let me know if there's anything that needs covering in more detail, errors, etc. You can download the user guide from here.
Apart from the tags that have been removed, everything should still work as-is ... fingers crossed. Please do let me know if you find anything broken! The 1.0-beta1 release is available to download from here.
