[Ken and Stas] + +Generated Listen directive now listen on 0.0.0.0 to force using +IPv4 addresses on IPv6 systems until LWP supports IPv6. [Gozer] + +improved docs [David Wheeler <david@kineticode.com>] + +Add a virtual method Apache::TestRun::pre_configure, and fix the +documentation to say that subclasses must not forget to run the +superclass' method. [Stas] + +Apache::TestRunPerl now performs an early check whether it can load +the right mod_perl environment. [William McKee <william@knowmad.com>, +Stas] + +$ENV{APACHE_TEST_NO_STICKY_PREFERENCES}, if true, will both suppress +generation of persistent preferences and ignore any that already exist. +[Geoffrey Young] + +make the project's test suite relocatable, handling the case where +after Apache-Test configuration was created and not cleaned up before +the directory was moved. This is especially important for those cases +where users try to run 'make test' as root from /root, A-T tells them +that they can't do that (because of the perms) and suggests to try +again, afer moving the whole project under /tmp or similar. [Stas] + +When running as 'root' make the client side drop the root permissions +and run with the same permissions as the server side +(e.g. nobody). This is needed in case the client side creates any +files after the initial check (during server side startup and beyond), +so that the server side could read/write them.

[Stas] + +Make sure that Apache-Test modules are installed into INSTALLSITEARCH +during a standalone build.

[Stas] + +HTTP/0.9 responses no longer croak, provided $ENV{APACHE_TEST_HTTP_09_OK} +is true. [Geoffrey Young] + +Hard-code listen directive to 127.0.0.1, solving problems for people +with IPv4 & IPv6 address until a better solution is found. [Gozer] + +prefix Apache::TestTrace (non-colour mode) messages with the loglevel, +similar to what Apache does. [Stas] + +Instrument A-T with an optional successful (shell-wise) abort of the +test suite, by asking the user whether they want to continue w/o +completing the test suite. Use it in places where we know that the +test suite will certaionly fail (e.g. running from /root as 'root', or +not providing httpd/apxs locations). [Stas] + +In order to make Apache-Test compatible with the rest of Perl testing +frameworks, we no longer chdir into t/, but run from the root of the +project (where t/ resides). A test needing to know where it's running +from (e.g. to read/write files/dirs on the filesystem), should do that +relative to the serverroot, documentroot and other server +configuration variables, available via +Apache::Test::vars('serverroot'), Apache::Test::vars('documentroot'), +etc. [Stas] + +Apache::Test::vars() can now query for config arguments [Stas] + +generate t/conf if it does not already exist, which +it may not if the tests are entirely autoconfigured. +[Geoffrey Young] + +Special to Apache-Test environment variables: +APXS APACHE APACHE_GROUP APACHE_USER APACHE_PORT +are now moved to: +APACHE_TEST_APXS APACHE_TEST_HTTPD APACHE_TEST_GROUP +APACHE_TEST_USER APACHE_TEST_PORT +respectively, for consistency with other APACHE_TEST_ env vars and in +order not to interfere with other projects that may use the same env +vars. [Stas] + +if $self->{reconfigure} is true, make sure to perform a complete +reconfiguration, to solve the bug where conf.in files weren't reparsed +and vhost hostport info was getting lost on subsequent runs when +APACHE env var was set (one of the cases when $self->{reconfigure} is +true). [Stas] + +handle "Include conf/*conf" cases when inheriting httpd.conf in a +cleaner way, don't complain that "*conf" doesn't exist, since it's a +glob pattern.

This was a problem on win32 +platforms, where a process scheduler tries to re-use the pids that +were just freed, which may have killed a valid process which is not +even Apache.exe. So we try not to rely on that file, and if the server +wasn't properly stopped and still running, users will learn about +that, since the port will be busy, and Apache will fail to +start. Users have to kill it manually. TestSmoke is no longer using an +explicit kill `cat httpd.pid` to stop Apache, but delegates the +stopping procedure to TestRun [Steve Hay, Randy Kobes] + +use IPC::Run3 in Apache::TestSmoke to run t/TEST commands, +so as t/SMOKE can be used on Win32 [Stas, Steve Hay, Randy Kobes] + +place mod_perl-specific directives in <IfModule> containers +within httpd.conf, allowing the default server to start if +mod_perl isn't present.

[Stas] + +if env var APACHE_TEST_PRETEND_NO_LWP is true, Apache::Test will +pretend that LWP is not available. useful for testing whether the test +suite will survive on a system which doesn't have libwww-perl +installed. [Stas] + +Apache::TestSmoke provides a new mode: -bug_mode, which runs an +equivalent of plain 't/TEST' but generates a lot of useful debug +information, in addition to matching the core files to the tests that +caused them.
