• No more obscure exceptions with server versions older than 5.5
• Fixed charset problems
• A Foreign Key now prohibits to change test_run IDs
• Moved meta_schema definition into meta.sql

  • assert_datetime_within_margin
  • assert_between_double

1.0.0-rc5 (2013-06-13)

• Added an 'autocommit' option, which solves a usability problem caused by the new metadata lock
• If a test drops an STK/Unit's temptable, STK/Unit doesn't fail (which doesn't mean that playing with test info is supported!)
• Solved a rare obscure exception which could rise without an apparent reason
• Trivial code cleanups

1.0.0-rc4 (2013-05-01)

We still don't know if next release will be 1.0Stable. If we have to make non-trivial changes, or edit any part of the code which is not easily testable, we will release another RC.

• Often read options are now cached
• Make sure that AUTO_CLEAN works if foreign_key_checks is off (rare!)
• During installation, server bahavior is now strict
• Some table options for better Aria integrity and MEMORY performance
• BTs are now executed alphabetically, not in undefined order
• added ts() and tc() (was a trivial feature request)
• show_* routines
• Fix: #1174710

1.0.0-rc3 (2013-04-05)

• Fix: #1162515
• Modifying SQL files for installation on Oracle MySQL is no longer necessary
• Commented BTs in test_stk_unit_assertions contained errors
• Minor code cleaning

1.0.0-rc2 (2013-03-27)

• fixed some executable comments to work with MySQL 5.1
• restore old @@session.SQL_MODE after install
• renamed xml_replace() to xml_encode()
• added empty lines before & after report output, so it's more readable
• assert_sql_ok() internally transforms SELECT … into DO (SELECT …) to avoid an extra resultset.
• added README, INSTALL, VERSION informative files, removed old ugly README.md
