Test Server Release Notes History

## 1 Test Server Release Notes History

### 1.1 Test Server 3.1.1

#### 1.1.1 Improvements and new features

- Added functions test_server:break/1 and test_server:continue/0 for semiautomatic testing.
  test_server:timetrap/1 can now also take {hours,H} | {minutes,M | {seconds,S}.
  Added function test_server_ctrl:multiply_timetraps/1, test_server_ctrl:add_case/3, test_server_ctrl:add_cases/2/3.
  Added test suite functions init_per_suite/1 and end_per_suite/1.
  fin_per_testcase/2 is changed to end_per_testcase/2. fin_per_testcase is kept for backwards compatibility.
  Added support for writing own test server frameworks. Callback functions init_tc/1, end_tc/3, get_suite/2, report/2, warn/1.

### 1.2 Test Server 3.1

#### 1.2.1 Improvements and New Features

- Added the options cover and cover_details to ts:run. When one of these options is used, the tested application will be cover compiled before the test is run. The cover compiled code will also be loaded on all slave or peer nodes started with test_server:start_node. When the test is completed coverage data from all nodes is collected and merged, and presented in the coverage log to which there will be a link from the test suite result page (i.e. the one with the heading "Test suite ... results").
  The cover_details option will do cover:analyse_to_file for each cover compiled module, while the cover option only will produce a list of modules and the number of covered/uncovered lines in each module.
  To make it possible to run all test from a script (like in the OTP daily builds), the following is added: ts:run([all_tests | Options]).
  This means that e.g. the following is possible: erl -s ts run all_tests batch cover.
  Note that it is also possible to run tests with cover even if you don't use ts. See test_server_ctrl:cover/2/3.
