ANNOUNCE: Ahven 2.0 and Ahven 2.1

ANNOUNCE: Ahven 2.0 and Ahven 2.1

[Tero Koskinen]

Hi,

I released two versions of Ahven today, Ahven 2.0 and Ahven 2.1.

Ahven 2.0 introduces two new features: timeouts and test skipping;
and Ahven 2.1 fixes a bug in the skipped test reporting.

You can get the source code from SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ahven/files/

Changelog:

2011-09-24 Ahven 2.1
====================

Bugs fixed
----------
   * Ahven.Text_Runner did not report skipped tests correctly.
     This is now fixed.

Internal
--------
   * Function Ahven.Results.Skipped_Count was added.

2011-09-23 Ahven 2.0
====================

Changes
-------
   * Tests can be now given a timeout value. If a test is not
     executed in the given time, it is stopped and a timeout
     failure is reported. See '-t' option of the test runners.
     The timeout feature depends on the possibility to abort
     a task after a certain amount of time. If the task abortion
     is not possible, the current test will continue running
     even after the given timeout.

   * A test can be now skipped programmatically by calling
     procedure Skip("Message"). A skipped test are considered
     to be equal to passed tests, but depending on the test
     runner, they can have extra "SKIP" information attached.

   * README is now provided in reStructured text format,
     just like the manual.

Bugs fixed
----------
   * Ahven can be compiled on Fedora systems by installing
     package "libgnat-static". Note: This was not a bug in
     Ahven but a configuration issue on Fedora.
