Misc
v1.10.0
Release 1.10.0
1.10.0 Release reflects a current version of the project.
The 1.10.x will not consider any requests for any new features, The bug fix requests will only be considered if proven "critical"
High Level Changes:
This release deprecated "....TEST_CASE" API in favor of "....TEST_SUITE". In a nutshell if you have code that uses something like "INSTANTIATE_TYPED_TEST_CASE_P " - this and all other "*_TEST_CASE " are now deprecated in favor of more standard _TEST_SUITE. See https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/master/googletest/docs/primer.md#beware-of-the-nomenclature.
There is also new powerful MOCK_METHOD macro. See https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/72adf7a4155b6642da1e6761678fe546590c0269/googlemock/docs/cook_book.md#creating-mock-classes. This replaces older way of mocking.
For example
(Old) MOCK_METHOD1(Bar, double(std::string s));
(New) MOCK_METHOD(double, Bar, (std::string s), (override));
So there is no need to count the parameters anymore.
v1.8.1
1.8.1 Release reflects a current version of the project.
The 1.8.x is the last release supporting pre-C++11 compilers.
The 1.8.x will not accept any requests for any new features and any bugfix requests will only be accepted if proven "critical"
