Descartes 1.3.2

Ensure compatibility with PIT 1.7.0

Descartes 1.3.1

Bumping PIT version to 1.6.4

Descartes 1.3

Compatible with PIT 1.6.1:

• Full refactoring of the internal mutation operators implementation to give them more access to class and method metadata.
• Support for Java 9.
• Improved the documentation with ready to use configuration snippets.
• New mutation operator replacing the code of a method by return this where applicable. The idea with this mutation operator is to provide a more meaningful way to mutate fluent APIs. (Thanks to @ipsita0911 and @pkubowicz for their suggestions)
• New mutation operator to return the first compatible argument of the method. (Suggested by @pkubowicz)
• New feature to skip short methods. (Proposed by @monperrus)
• New feature to skip methods and classes annotated with @DoNotMutate (Suggested by @monperrus)

Descartes 1.2.6

Compatible with PIT 1.4.10

• New version of the ISSUES report to avoid long names
• new mutation operator. (Thanks to @nrainer )
• optional mutation operator (Suggested by @pedrorijo91)
• kotlin_setter stop methods, to avoid mutating Kotlin generated setters

Descartes 1.2.5

• Compatible with PITest 1.4.7 and the 1.4.0 version of the Gradle PITest plugin.
• j2html is not included in the compiled package anymore.
• JSON report now includes the file name and line of the mutated method
• JSON report is compatible with the test matrix computation from PITest
• The following method patterns have been added to the stop methods:
  • return this
  • methods that only return a parameter: public int m(int x, int y) { return y; }
  • simple setters returning this: public A setX(int x){ this.x = x; return this; }
• A separated category has been added for stop methods returning null (Contributed by @nrainer )

Descartes 1.2.4

Hotfix for a bug preventing valid String mutations that was introduced in the previous version.

Descartes 1.2.3

This release fixes two main issues:

• A bug in the ISSUES reporter when the analysis time was below one second (Issue #69). Thanks to @vmassol for reporting!
• Wrong code generation for methods whose return type is a wrapper for primitive types/

Descartes 1.2.2

• Methods returning empty arrays are now recognized as stop methods.
• Correctly handling native methods (Issue #63). Thanks to @arnobl!

Descartes 1.2.1

This release adds more information to the METHODS reporter, so a method can be found in the corresponding class.

Descartes 1.2

It includes the following features:

• Stop methods can be configured using the STOP_METHODS PITest feature. Exceptions can be handled with the parameter except.
