Hello all,
I'm pleased to announce the release of DUnit 0.1, a unittest framework
in the xUnit pattern for D.
Why use DUnit rather than unittest{} blocks?
Have you found yourself writing "Stdout(`test for foo\n`);" at the start
of every unit test? Or maybe you have a template for it already.
When one test fails, do you immediately comment it out to see whether
any other tests fail to find what the problem is?
Do you find yourself copying and pasting setup code between tests regularly?
Have you spent time searching for a failed test because your tests are
interleaved with your code?
If so, DUnit can offer you:
* organization
* named tests and fixtures
* the guiding principle that the testing must go on! (Segfaults
notwithstanding.)
DUnit should be usable at present, though I have no idea how usable. Be
brave, try it. It *probably* won't summon Cthulhu, or even seriously
maim anyone you know!
