TestCentric Engine 2.0.0-beta1 - May 9, 2023

This is the first beta release of the TestCentric engine.

The major change from the alpha8 release is that all built-in agents have now been removed from the engine itself. This completes our pivot to using pluggable agent extensions for all tests. At this point, the engine alone is no longer capable of running any tests. It's up to the runner making use of the agent to ensure that at least one agent extension is installed. To put it another way: the runner decides what kinds of tests it is capable of running and in what environments, not the engine.

Note: The upcoming beta release of the GUI will include agents for .NET Framework 4.6.2, .NET 6.0 and .NET 7.0. The following additional agents are currently available for user installation: .NET 8.0, .NET 5.0, .NET Core 3.1, .NET Core 2.1, .NET Framework 2.0.

This release was built using the first production release of our TestCentric.Cake.Recipe package.

Features

  • 2 Create .NET 6.0 Pluggable Agent Extension
  • 3 Make all agents pluggable extensions
  • 15 Remove Built-in .NET 4.6.2 Framework Agent from the engine
  • 108 Create .NET 7.0 Pluggable Agent
  • 109 Remove built-in net6.0 agent from the engine
  • 110 Remove built-in net7.0 agent from the engine
  • 111 Create net462 agent extension

  • 118 Add tests using Net462PluggableAgent
  • 119 Add tests using Net60Pluggable agent
  • 120 Add tests using Net70PluggableAgent
  • 126 Update recipe to production version 1.0.0

TestCentric Engine 2.0.0-alpha8 - April 24, 2023

This release makes extensive use of pluggable agents, which had been available as an experimental feature up to now. Built-in support for the .NET Core 3.1 and .NET 5.0 runtimes has been removed and pluggable agents for each of them have been released as separate extensions. Without the extensions, such tests will now be run under .NET 6.0. In addition, tests may now be run under .NET 8.0 using the .NET 8.0 pluggable engine, available as a download from our MyGet feed. That agent is still in pre-alpha development.

The engine is now built using our cake recipe, TestCentric.Cake.Recipe, which was extended in order to support it.

  • 17 Remove Built-in .NET Core 3.1 Agent from the engine
  • 18 Remove Built-in .NET 5.0 Agent from the engine
