Once thought to be merely a mythical creature, gunit/v2 is here, more real than ever.

  • The runner is easier to grok, and handles integration tests (shared fixtures).
  • The assertions return an actual error value in failure conditions.

NOTE: The v2 module has been defined in its very own /v2 subdirectory so that the v1 code can remain here with continuing support. There's no need to port v1 test fixtures to v2 (nor am I recommending that) but new projects should use v2 from the start.

Pull request overview

This PR introduces gunit/v2, a major revision of the testing framework with improved design and error handling. The v2 implementation is isolated in a /v2 subdirectory to maintain backward compatibility with v1 code, allowing existing projects to continue using v1 while new projects can adopt v2 from the start.

Key changes:

  • Enhanced test runner that supports both unit tests (parallel execution with fresh fixtures) and integration tests (shared fixtures)
  • Assertions now return actual error values instead of just failing tests, enabling better error handling patterns
  • Comprehensive assertion library with clear error reporting and stack traces
