0.7.0

Breaking changes

There are some breaking changes in this release that significantly improves the test interface.

test() is now only for synchronous or promise/observable returning tests

The main test() interface is now synchronous by default and can be made asynchronous by returning a promise/observable or using a async/generator function (which implicitly returns a promise).

You no longer have to call t.end() in synchronous tests:

 test(t => {
    t.pass();
-   t.end();
})

You can no longer use test() for callback-style APIs, so we've introduced a new "callback mode" test.cb().

-test(t => {
+test.cb(t => {
    fn(err => {
        t.ifError(err);
        t.end();
    });
 });

t.plan() will no longer auto-end tests

You will now have to explicitly end tests with callback-style APIs. Previously, t.plan() doubled as both an assert counter and ending the test when the assertion count was reached. This was a mistake. It's now only an assert counter. We are now able to warn on too many async assertion which were previously not possible. Note that t.end() only works in "callback mode" test.cb().

-test(t => {
+test.cb(t => {
    t.plan(1);

    fn(err => {
        t.ifError(err);
+       t.end();
    });
 });
