Versions

  • I
    • I/1.0 : First release, minimally functional, Mac - node
    • I/2.0 : Use it in web projects, Mac
    • I/2.1 : Use it with node on linux ([Travis])
    • I/2.2 : Now also tests with [Intern] on node, on Mac and Linux. [Intern] is preferred over Mocha. This version only changes private code, test code, and build setup.
    • I/2.3 : Cleanup, renaming, administration, license, fixing warnings
    • I/2.4 : Now also tests with [Intern] on Mac on Chrome, Safari, Firefox (3 failures, waiting for april version 53)
    • I/2.5 : Fix in behavior and test of util.browserModuleLocation
    • I/1.2.5 : Relax a test to support use of '(<anonymous)' in node 8.4; change to semver
  • II
    • II/1.0 : First release on npm. The code is functional on node, and there is no need to wait for browser validation to start using it on node.
    • II/1.1 : Use scope in package name
    • II/1.2 : Cosmetic changes
    • II/2.1.3 : Relax a test to support use of '(<anonymous)' in node 8.4; change to semver
  • III
    • III/3.0.0 : Now also supports contracts for (classic) constructors. In general, the prototype of an implementation is "forwarded" to the contract function. The ECMAScript2015 "class" construct is not yet supported (a "class" generated constructor cannot be called or applyed). This is an incompatible change, since we now require more of a general contract function. Also, from now on, we will use versioning differently. Since npm insists on semantic versioning, the major version number will be the arabic numeral of the roman mark version. We now use yarn, but that is optional.
    • III/3.0.1 : Relax a test to support use of '(<anonymous)' in node 8.4
    • III/3.1.0 : Works on Windows (node 8 and Chrome tested)
    • III/3.1.1 : Update dependencies
  • IV
    • IV/4.0.0:
      • CI is realised completely, with automated tests for LTS Node versions and all major browsers on all major platforms. We no longer use Bitbucket or Bitbucket Pipelines. Everything is done with GitHub, [travis], and [browserstack]
      • dropped direct support for older JS and browsers - now geared toward Node 6 and higher; use browserify to support browsers
      • fixed display name
      • support arrow functions
      • By default, only preconditions are tested. Postcondition testing must be enabled, for all contracts, a particular contract, or 1 implementation, by setting contract.verifyPostconditions = true. All testing can be disabled by setting contract.verify = false.
      • Support Promise and async functions through PromiseContract (with Contract.Promise as alias)
    • IV/4.0.1:
      • fix issue with stack trace of condition errors in Chrome ≥ v73
    • IV/4.0.2:
      • fix bug with circular structures in this (and other arguments) with util.inspect (It actually turns out there are 2 separate, separate bugs in IntelliJ and mocha-reporter)
    • IV/4.0.3:
      • fix bug in determination of Contract Violation location on Windows. It turns out that Node (8, at least) in Windows uses \n as EOL in stack traces, and not os.EOL.
    • IV/4.0.4:
      • replace must with should in tests
    • IV/4.0.5:
      • fix missing EOLs - these where lost in the 4.0.4 rebase
    • IV/4.0.6:
      • test also on Node 12 and 13 (use 12 as dev env)
      • upgrade dependencies (dev)
      • fix test issue with async functions in Node 12 (a similar issue as with 4.0.1) (there is still a test issue with Node 12 and later when running tests in IntelliJ)
    • IV/4.0.7:
      • fix test issue with Node 12 and later when running tests in IntelliJ
    • IV/4.0.8:
      • fix bug in isImplementedBy: cf.contract.isImplementedBy(cf) did not work
    • IV/4.1.0:
      • support Symbols as arguments
      • contract function name is now a true property, with the same settings as the implementation function name, and no longer a derived property (in response to https://github.com/sinonjs/sinon/issues/2203)
    • IV/4.1.1:
      • ignore unnecessary files in distribution
    • IV/4.1.2:
      • fix bug in dealing with arguments, when they contain a Symbol
  • V
    • V/5.0.0
      • stop support for Node 8
      • move from Travis to Bitbucket
      • changed package name from @toryt/contracts-iv to @toryt/contracts-v; you can use different major versions next to each other
      • changed the layout of lib/: there is no more mark version directory
      • added package export lib/index file: you can now import with, e.g., const { Contract } = required('@toryt/contracts-v'), in environments that support that syntax
      • the use of Contract properties to access other modules is now deprecated; please start using the package export
      • upgraded dependencies
      • to upgrade:
        • /require('@toryt\/contracts-iv')\.(.*)/require('@toryt/contracts-v').$1/
        • /require('@toryt\/contracts-iv')/require('@toryt/contracts-v').Contract/
        • /require('@toryt\/contracts-iv\/lib\/IV\/(.*)')/require('@toryt/contracts-v').$1/

Where to find

Repo, CI, issues, pull requests

This project is maintained in Bitbucket (repo, CI, issues, pull requests, …).

Branches are copied automatically to Github by CI. This is done as backup, and because open source projects are more easily found there. Issues and pull requests there will not be reviewed.

Browsers

Some workarounds were made to accommodate different Safari. This only concerns using Error stack traces to report where a contract has failed.

Safari support for traces is bad. First of all, Safari haphazardly skips frames in its stack trace. Second, there is a difference in the stack traces generated when using Safari 'live', and via Web Driver. In the latter case, no lines or columns are reported, and the stack contains a lot of empty lines. As a result, it is impossible to return a sensible location of contract failure consistently with Safari. A best effort will need to suffice.

Furthermore, Safari on iOS is very weird in adding a default prototype object to a non-arrow function. That should always be there, but experience shows it is sometimes 'late'. It seems to be added 'lazily'.

Environment detection is used in tests to exclude some conditions in some environments.

More extensive, and sadly fragile, browser detection is used in tests for Safari.
