Released on October 23rd, 2014.
* Restored the atf(7) manual page to serve as a reference to all the other
manual pages shipped by ATF.
* Added the -s flag to atf-sh to support specifying the shell interpreter
to be used.
* Removed ATF_WORKDIR. The only remaining consumers have been converted to
use the standard TMPDIR environment variable. As a benefit, and because
Kyua forces the TMPDIR to live within the test case's work directory,
any stale files left behind by ATF will be automatically cleaned up.
* Documented the environment variables recognized by each component in the
relevant manual pages. This information was lost with the atf-config(1)
removal.
* Added a new "require.diskspace" metadata property to test cases so that
they can specify the minimum amount of disk space required for the test
to run.
* Renamed the atf-{c,c++,sh}-api(3) manual pages to atf-{c,c++,sh}(3) for
discoverability purposes. Symbolic links are provided for the time
being to still make the old names visible.
* Issue #5: Recommend the (expected, actual) idiom for calls to the test
macros in the manual pages.
* Issue #7: Stopped catching unhandled exceptions in atf-c++ tests. This
propagates the crash to the caller, which in turn allows it to obtain
proper debugging information. In particular, Kyua should now be able to
extract a stacktrace pinpointing the problem.
* Issue #8: Fixed atf-c/macros_test:use test failures spotted by the clang
that ships with FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT.
* Issue #12: Improved documentation of atf-sh(3) and atf-check(1) by better
explaining how they relate to each other.
* Issue #14: Stopped setting 'set -e' in atf-sh. This setting was
initially added as a way to enable a "strict" mode in the library and to
make test cases fail fast when they run unprotected commands. However,
doing so in the library is surprising as the responsibility of enabling
'set -e' should be on the user's code. Also, 'set -e' introduces
inconsistent behavior on subshells and users do not expect that.
* Issue #15: Fixed atf_utils_{fork,wait} to support nested calls.
* Issue #16: Fixed test failures (by removing a long-standing hack) on
systems that lack \e support in printf(1).
* Issue #19: Removed stale references to atf-config and atf-run.
Experimental version released on February 7th, 2014.
This is the first release without the code for the deprecated tools. If
you require such code, please fetch a copy of the 0.19 release and extract
the 'tools' directory for your own consumption.
* Removed the deprecated tools. This includes atf-config, atf-report,
atf-run and atf-version.
Experimental version released on February 7th, 2014.
This is the last release to bundle the code for the deprecated tools.
The next release will drop their code and will stop worrying about
backwards compatibility between the ATF libraries and what the old tools
may or may not support.
If you still require the old tools for some reason, grab a copy of the
'tools' directory now. The code in this directory is standalone and
does not depend on any internal details of atf-c++ any longer.
* Various fixes and improvements to support running as part of the FreeBSD
test suite.
* Project hosting moved from Google Code (as a subproject of Kyua) to
GitHub (as a first-class project). The main reason for the change is
the suppression of binary downloads in Google Code on Jan 15th, 2014.
See https://github.com/jmmv/atf/
* Removed builtin help from atf-sh(1) and atf-check(1) for simplicity
reasons. In other words, their -h option is gone.
* Moved the code of the deprecated tools into a 'tools' directory and
completely decoupled their code from the internals of atf-c++. The
reason for this is to painlessly allow a third-party to maintain a
copy of these tools after we delete them because upcoming changes to
atf-c++ would break the stale tools.
Experimental version released on November 16th, 2013.
* Issue 45: Added require.memory support in atf-run for FreeBSD.
* Fixed an issue with the handling of cin with libc++.
* Issue 64: Fixed various mandoc formatting warnings.
* X-NetBSD-PR bin/48284: Made atf-check flush its progress message to
stdout so that an interrupted test case always shows the last message
being executed.
* X-NetBSD-PR bin/48285: Fixed atf_check examples in atf-sh-api(3).

Experimental version released on February 14th, 2013.
* Added the atf_utils_cat_file, atf_utils_compare_file,
atf_utils_copy_file, atf_utils_create_file, atf_utils_file_exists,
atf_utils_fork, atf_utils_grep_file, atf_utils_grep_string,
atf_utils_readline, atf_utils_redirect and atf_utils_wait utility
functions to atf-c-api. Documented the already-public
atf_utils_free_charpp function.
* Added the cat_file, compare_file, copy_file, create_file, file_exists,
fork, grep_collection, grep_file, grep_string, redirect and wait
functions to the atf::utils namespace of atf-c++-api. These are
wrappers around the same functions added to the atf-c-api library.
* Added the ATF_CHECK_MATCH, ATF_CHECK_MATCH_MSG, ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH and
ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH_MSG macros to atf-c to simplify the validation of a
string against a regular expression.
* Miscellaneous fixes for manpage typos and compilation problems with
clang.
* Added caching of the results of those configure tests that rely on
executing a test program. This should help crossbuild systems by
providing a mechanism to pre-specify what the results should be.
* X-NetBSD-PR bin/45690: Make atf-report convert any non-printable
characters to a plain-text representation (matching their
corresponding hexadecimal entities) in XML output files. This is to
prevent the output of test cases from breaking xsltproc later.
Note that this import, compared to the one for 0.16, brings in all the
files that are part of the release. This is to follow the Subversion
Primer guidelines, which mention that all files should be imported first
and only dropped when merging into contrib/atf/.
