Version 8.1 - July 5, 2024

7/5/25

  • Release 8.1.
  • Add two new functions to assist with code for debugging:
    • assert_debug() -- calls assert() if DEBUG_MODE is on
    • toggle_debug_mode() -- set/toggles whether DEBUG_MODE is on

3/21/25

  • Enhance t_is() to handle Inf values appropriately.

Version 8.0 - May 10, 2024

5/10/24

  • Release 8.0.

3/1/24

  • Add Sphinx-based User and Reference documentation.

Version 8.0b1 - Dec 12, 2022

12/12/22

  • Release 8.0b1.

11/10/22

  • Add t_str_match() to test that a string/char array matches an expected value. Includes the option to apply a set of regular expression or simple string replacements before comparing.
  • Add t_file_match() to test that the contents of two text files match, with the option to delete one if they do match. Includes the option to apply a set of string or regular expresssion replacements before comparing.

4/10/21

  • Allow logical type (i.e. true and false) as second input to have_feature(), as well as numeric type (1 and 0), to facilitate using (logical) output of prior call as toggle input.

Version 7.1 - Oct 8, 2020

10/8/20

  • Release 7.1.

9/22/20

  • Add have_feature(), moved from MP-Opt-Model, as a modular, extensible alternative to have_fcn(), originally from MATPOWER, where the detection of a feature named <tag> is implemented by the function have_feature_<tag>(). Includes feature detection functions for 'matlab' and 'octave'.
  • Switch from Travis-CI to GitHub workflows for continuous integration testing.

9/21/20

  • Add mptestver() defining explicit version number.

12/6/19

  • Improve handling of complex quantities in t_is(). Now displays differences in imaginary parts as well when there is a mismatch. Previously, it would show only the real parts which could be identical.

Version 7.0 - Jun 20, 2019

6/20/19

  • Release 7.0.

Version 7.0b1 - Oct 30, 2018

10/30/18

  • Release 7.0b1.
  • Fix bug in t_is() where comparing an integer value with a double value would pass when it should not.

3/7/18

  • Replace clock()/etime() with tic()/toc() for timing.

1/30/18

  • Added abs() to output of failed tests for consistency when comparing complex numbers (affects display only, test were correct).

8/1/17

  • Modified t_is() to handle sparse matrix inputs.

12/21/16

  • Updates for Travis-CI integration, with option to exit Octave or MATLAB if any test fails. Thanks to Richard Lincoln for getting us started with Travis-CI.

Version 6.0 - Dec 16, 2016

  • no change

12/15/16

Version 6.0b2 - Nov 1, 2016

  • no change

Version 6.0b2 - Jun 1, 2016

10/15/15

  • Modified t_is() to handle matrix inputs of dimension greater than two.
  • Added t_test_fcns() to test t_ok() and t_is() and manually check output of failed tests.

Version 5.1 - Mar 20, 2015

2/25/15

  • Switch to more permissive 3-clause BSD license from GPL 3.0.

Version 5.0 - Dec 17, 2014

8/11/14

  • Optionally return success flag from t_ok() and t_is().

Version 5.0b1 - Jul 1, 2014

3/13/13

  • Empty got and expected arguments to t_is() now count as a passing test instead of an error, as long as the dimensions match.

Version 4.1 - Dec 14, 2011

6/29/11

  • Updated t_is() to properly print when result includes NaNs.

Version 4.0 - Feb 7, 2011

  • no change

Version 4.0b5 - Dec 13, 2010

12/2/10

  • Improved output of t_is(). Includes only elements violating tolerance.

Version 4.0b4 - May 21, 2010

  • no change

Version 4.0b3 - Apr 19, 2010

4/19/10

  • Changed licensing to GNU General Public license. See LICENSE and COPYING files for details.

Version 4.0b2 - Mar 19, 2010

3/10/10

  • Massive help text update to more closely match MathWorks conventions; function names in ALL CAPS, See also ..., Examples, etc.

Version 4.0b1 - Dec 24, 2009

11/4/09

  • Removed unnecessary return statement at end of all M-files. If anything it should be an end statement, but even that is optional, so we just let functions get terminated by the end-of-file or another function declaration.

Version 3.2 - Sep 21, 2007

  • no change

Version 3.1b2 - Sep 15, 2006

  • no change

10/14/05

  • Added total tests to printing of number of tests skipped.

7/8/05

  • Updated t_is() to handle dimension mismatches.

Version 3.0 - Feb 14, 2005

  • no change

Version 3.0b4 - Jan 28, 2005
