1.9 (2018/1/14)

* two new test file formats have been added, allowing input re-use and lighter syntax
* new -l/--list flag lists the tests found
* new -D/--defmacro option allows text substitution (Taavi Valjaots)
* new --xmlout option saves test results as xml (Taavi Valjaots)
* tests with Windows line endings now also work on unix (Taavi Valjaots)
* shelltestrunner's tests should now pass on Windows (Taavi Valjaots)
* flags formerly passed through to test-framework are now built in
* >>>= with nothing after it now matches any exit status
* failure messages now show the test command (John Chee)
* include shelltestrunner's tests in cabal sdist archive (Iustin Pop)
* build with latest deps and stackage resolvers
* shelltestrunner's code and home page have moved to github

1.3.5 (2015/3/30)

* fix Applicative warning with ghc 7.10
* allow utf8-string <1.1

1.3.4 (2014/5/28)

* drop cabal-file-th, support GHC 7.8.2

1.3.3 (2014/5/25)

* allow process 1.2, regex-tdfa-1.2
* add a hackage-compatible changelog

1.3.2 (2013/11/13)

* increase upper bound on Diff package

1.3.1 (2012/12/28)

* fix cabal file typo breaking the build

1.3 (2012/12/28)

* support latest Diff, cmdargs, test-framework; tested with GHC 7.6.1 (Magnus Therning)

* fix unicode handling on GHC >= 7.2

1.2.1 (2012/3/12)

* use the more up-to-date filemanip package for easier Debian packaging

1.2 (2012/2/26)

* support latest cmdargs, test-framework, and GHC 7.4
* more readable non-quoted failure output by default; for quoted output, use -p/--precise
* the --all, --diff and --precise options now interact well

1.1 (2011/8/25)

* bump process dependency to allow building with GHC 7.2.1
* new -a/--all flag shows all failure output without truncating

1.0 (2011/7/23)

* New home page/docs
* The >>>= field is now required; you may need to add it to your existing tests
* Input and expected output can now contain lines beginning with #
* Multiple tests in a file may now have whitespace between them
* The -i/--implicit option has been dropped
* New -d/--diff option shows test failures as a unified diff when possible, including line numbers to help locate the problem
* New -x/--exclude option skips certain test files (eg platform-specific ones)
* Passing arguments through to test-framework is now more robust
* Fixed: parsing could fail when input contained left angle brackets
* Fixed: some test files generated an extra blank test at the end

0.9 (2010/9/3)

* show plain non-ansi output by default, add --color option
* better handling of non-ascii test data. We assume that non-ascii file
  paths, command-line arguments etc. are UTF-8 encoded on unix systems
  (cf http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/fixing-unix-linux-filenames.html),
  and that GHC 6.12 or greater is used. Then:
  - non-ascii test file paths should render correctly, eg in failure messages
  - non-ascii test commands should run correctly
  - non-ascii expected output should match correctly
  - non-ascii regular expressions should match correctly. (Caveat: not
    thoroughly tested, this may break certain regexps, )
* use regex-tdfa instead of pcre-light for better windows compatibility
  To avoid a memory leak in current regex-tdfa, only regular expressions
  up to 300 characters in size are supported. Also, DOTALL is no longer
  enabled and probably fewer regexp constructs are supported.  There are
  still issues on windows/wine but in theory this will help.
* tighten up dependencies

0.8 (2010/4/9)

* rename executable to shelltest. The package might also be renamed at some point.
* better built-in help
* shell tests now include a full command line, making them more readable
  and self-contained. The --with option can be used to replace the first
  word with something else, unless the test command line begins with a
  space.
* we also accept directory arguments, searching for test files below
  them, with two new options:
    --execdir        execute tested command in same directory as test file
    --extension=EXT  file extension of test files (default=.test)

0.7 (2010/3/5)

* more robust parsing
  - --debug-parse parses test files and stops
  - regexps now support escaped forward slash (\/)
  - bad regexps now fail at startup
  - command-line arguments are required in a test, and may be blank
  - a >>>= is no longer required to separate multiple tests in a file
  - comments can be appended to delimiter lines
  - comments can appear at end of file
  - files need not have a final newline
  - files containing nothing, all comments, or valid tests are allowed; anything else is rejected
  - somewhat better errors
  - allow indented input
* support negative (-) and negatively-matched (!) numeric exit codes
* let . in regexps match newline
* warn but continue when a test file fails to parse
* output cleanups, trim large output
* more flexible --implicit flag
* switch to the more robust and faster pcre-light regexp lib

0.6 (2009/7/15)

* allow multiple tests per file, handle bad executable better

0.5 (2009/7/14)

* show failure output in proper order

0.4 (2009/7/14)

* run commands in a more robust way to avoid hangs
  This fixes hanging when a command generates large output, and hopefully
  all other deadlocks. The output is consumed strictly. Thanks to Ganesh
  Sittampalam for his help with this.
* --implicit-tests flag providing implicit tests for omitted fields
* --debug flag
* regular expression matching
* disallow interspersed foreign options which confused parseargs
* change comment character to #

0.3 (2009/7/11)

* misc. bugfixes/improvements

0.2 (2009/7/10)

* bugfix, build with -threaded

0.1 (2009/7/10)

* shelltestrunner, a generic shell command stdout/stderr/exit status tester
