This was intended as a 3.0 migration aid for browser users who had
dependencies that triggered errors at load time. However, it was never
documented and never supported by jasmine-brower-runner, karma, or any
other commonly used tool for runing Jasmine in the browser. There is
no evidence of it actually being used. It is, however, starting to
show up in machine-generated "tutorials".
The Pivotal copyright notice needs to be retained. That's the right
thing to do and the MIT license requires it. However, using it by itself
becomes more obviously incorrect with each passing year since Pivotal
ceased to exist. Moreover, Pivotal hasn't actually been the sole
copyright owner since the first external contribution was merged.
Contributors were not asked to sign a copyright assignment, so they
retain copyright to their contributions.
"Copyright (c) 2008-2019 Pivotal Labs" complies with the terms of the
license and acknowledges Pivotal's outsized role in developing Jasmine.
"Copyright (c) 2008-$YEAR The Jasmine developers" acknowledges all
authors and will remain correct in the future.
The CI status badge mostly just shows whether Saucelabas was flaky
last night. Code Triage was a nice idea but it's attracted at most
one new contributor over 5.5 years.
These are similar to `expect` and `expectAsync` except that they throw
exceptions rather than recording matcher failures as spec/suite failures.
They're intended to support using Jasmine matchers in testing-library's
`waitFor`, and also provide a way to integration-test custom matchers.
These funtions are not equivalent to `expect` and `expectAsync` and should
not be used in situations where you want a matcher failure to reliably fail
the spec. Whether that happens depends on the structure of the surrounding
code. In general, you should only use `throwUnless` when you expect
something (which could be your own code or library code like `waitFor`) to
catch the resulting exception.
Fixes#2003.
Fixes#1980.
Not updating Prettier because newer versions impose significant formatting
changes. In particular, 2.0 changes every function definition from
`function() {` to `function () {` with no way to opt out. I'm not willing
to accept that kind of churn just becuse the Prettier devs changed their
mind about what color the bikeshed should be.
We'll most likely stay on Prettier 1.17 for as long as it remains viable,
then either switch to an autoformatter that offers stability or just
remove it.
