 HISTORY

+=======

+Version 0.0.7
+---------------------
+
+### Molly-guard
+The Molly-guard is now more accepting. For example, you no longer need to
+pass -f in this case: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/357
+
+### Skipping tests
+Previously, tests were run if they were executable and were otherwise marked
+as skipped. Now, an executable script can indicate that it is skipped by
+exiting with code 3.  For example, if a test requires some dependancy, it
+might look for the dependency and then skip if it does not see the dependency.
+It might look like this.
+
+    #!/bin/sh
+    if which inkscape; then
+      exit 3 # status code 3 for skip
+    fi
+    inkscape blah blah ...
+
+I chose status code 3 sort of arbitrarily at first, but it turns out that it
+would the appropriate status code if these tests were Nagios plugins, as the
+concept of skipping a test is similar to the Nagios concept of unknown service
+status (https://nagios-plugins.org/doc/guidelines.html#AEN78).
+
+### Run on a file
+It is now possible to run urchin on a single file.
+This occurred to me when I wanted to run
+
+    urchin test/fast/Unit\ tests/nvm_ls_current
+
+on the nvm tests. I wound up running this instead.
+
+    urchin test/fast/Unit\ tests/ | grep nvm_ls_current
+
+The Molly guard is assessed, and the corresponding setup, setup_dir,
+teardown, and teardown_dir files are run in the appropriate order.
+
+Version 0.0.6
+---------------------
+
+* Produce TAP output with the -t flag.
+* Add a + sign in front of directories in the normal output so that they
+  line up with non-directories.
+* Display skipped tests in the normal output and in the TAP output.
+* Correct some things in the documentation.
+* Rearrange things in the documentation to be more clear.
+* Pass the -e flag to exit urchin if any single test fails.
+* Remove the undocumented, experimental -x flag now that shall exists.
+* Display version number with the -v flag.
+* Document why Urchin is called "Urchin"
+* Update TODO
+* Support mksh (Change a printf command.)
+* Make long lines shorter.
+
+These changes are made somewhat separately in the branches "exit-on-fail",
+"remove-urchin-x", "tap", and "update-readme". They are rebased into one
+branch, "tlevine-2016-02", for merging into "master".

+Things I want
+=============
+
+Test speed
+-------------
+Make tests run faster.
+https://github.com/bike-barn/hermit/issues/62
+
+First, easier thing is probably to run tests in parallel.
+
+Second, also easier thing is to tell people to save things to RAM rather than
+disk whenever they can.
+
+Third, harder thing is to put the test suite in RAM automatically. Maybe the
+whole test directory, which includes fixtures, gets copied to a tmpfs if one
+exists.
+
+Hmm or maybe there's a compromise: Tell people to mount /tmp as a tmpfs so
+that temp files are fast. Maybe allow people to set some other directory as
+the temporary file place, in case they want a different tmpfs location.
+
+Options
+-------------
+I want long options. For example, there's presently -f and -e.
+I want to make them -f|--force and -e|--exit.
+
+Environment variables
+-------------
+Do something to make it easier to debug environment variables, because that is
+often confusing.
+https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/719
+https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/589
+
+Documenting that people should run "env" when their tests fail might be good
+enough.
+
+Licensing and copyright
+------------------------
+* Reference all owners and years in the Copyright file
+* Consider copyleft licenses
+* Add license notices to other files if necessary
+
+Packaging
+------------
+Package for package managers.
+
+* I want NixOS, of course.
+* Debian is probably the big one.
+
+Other interesting package managers
+
+* Update the npm package
+* Homebrew (for Mac)
+
+Windows
+----------
+Try running Urchin in Windows somehow. Interpreters include
+
+* CygWin (https://www.cygwin.com/)
+* MSYS (http://mingw.org/wiki/msys)
+* GNU on Windows (https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow/wiki)
+* Git for Windows (https://git-scm.com/download/win)
+* win-bash (http://win-bash.sourceforge.net/)
+
+Consider copyleft licenses
+----------
+ScraperWiki owns the original version of Urchin (Thomas Levine did the early
+work as part of his work for ScraperWiki.) and originally licensed it under an
+MIT-style license. Other people made changes after this original ScraperWiki
+version. As of January 2016, they are just Thomas Levine (when he wasn't
+working for ScraperWiki) and Michael Klement.
+
+The original license was MIT just because that's what ScraperWiki put on
+everything. Should we change the license?
+
+The MIT-style license grants pretty much all rights. It says that you need
+to attribute when you redistribute source code, but you don't
+necessarily have to redistribute source code.
+
+A copyleft license adds the restriction that modified versions of the
+code need to be licensed under the same license. GNU licenses in
+particular require that source code be released if non-source versions are
+released, and the different GNU licenses differ in what how the
+non-source version is defined. (The original, GPL, discusses compiled
+binaries.) Copyleft doesn't mean anything specific for commercial use.
+
+MIT-licensed code can be modified and then licensed as GPL, because MIT
+license allows that, but GPL code can't be modified as MIT, because MIT
+doesn't allow that. And if we get all of the authors to agree on it, we
+can always add whatever crazy license we want, regardless of what we
+have already.
+
+The distinction between MIT-style and GNU-something might matter quite little
+in the case of Urchin.
+
+1. Urchin is written in an interpreted language (shell), so it might be
+   hard to distribute usefully without providing the source code.
+2. Urchin just runs tests; it doesn't get compiled with the rest of the
+   code (also because it's in shell). Thus, I think a GPL license on
+   Urchin wouldn't infect the code being tested.
+
+This is as far as I have gotten with contemplating license changes. For now
+we're sticking with the original MIT-style license, but it's easy to change
+licenses later.
+
+Nagios plugins
+-----------------
+It would be cool to run Nagios plugins with Urchin. This is already possible,
+actually, but it might be worth giving some special thought to it.
+https://nagios-plugins.org/doc/guidelines.html
+
+Source setup and teardown
+--------------------
+If setup and teardown are sourced instead of executed, maybe we can more
+cleanly create and teardown temporary files.
+
+    (
+      . ./setup
+      ./$thetestfile
+      . ./teardown
+    )
+
+On the other hand, this could just be sourced explicitly in the test file,
+without the special setup and teardown feature.
+
+Running automated tasks
+-------------------------
+Urchin might be appropriate for if you have lots of tasks that you want to run
+periodically; add an urchin call to your crontab, and call all of your other
+tasks with urchin. Here are some features that might make urchin better for
+this sort of thing.
+                                                      
+* Time how long each test/job takes
+* Optionally kill tests/jobs after a specific timeout threshold
+* Send output of different tests/jobs to different files for each file
+  descriptor (STDOUT, STDERR)
