These might be useful for a function with a more restricted domain. But for
equals, which accepts two of literally anything, the short run was too short
to catch any problems and the long run tended to exceed the CircleCi timeout.
Previously, a custom matcher library that wanted to remain compatible with
Jasmine <= 3.5.x could not know whether or not Jasmine expected it to pass
custom equality testers to MatchersUtil#contains. Passing them would produce
a deprecation warning in newer versions and not passing them would break
compatibility with older versions. Now we use matcher factory arity to
determine whether to pass custom equality testers to the factory, which
allows libraries to do something like this:
function matcherFactory(util) {
const customEqualityTesters = arguments[1];
// customEqualityTesters will be undefined in newer versions of Jasmine
// and defined in older versions that expect it to be passed back to
// MatchersUtil#equals.
}
* Include stack traces. This makes it easier to find the matcher that
needs to be updated, particularly when it comes from a library rather
than the user's own code.
* Show each deprecation only once unless `config.verboseDeprecations`
is set. Since matchers are often added in a global `beforeEach`, logging
deprecations every time can be overwhelming.
Custom object formatters allow users to customize how an object is
stringified in matcher failure messages. This can already be done by
adding a `jasmineToString` method to the objects in question. But
it's not always desirable or possible to do that, particularly when
objects of a given "type" do not inherit from a specific prototype.
For instance, suppose a web service returns a list of foos that are
deserialized from JSON, e.g.:
{ fooId: 42, /* more properties */ }
The only way to define `jasmineToString` on those is by writing code to
add it to each instance at runtime. But a custom object formatter can
recognize that the object it's looking at is a foo and format it
accordingly:
jasmine.addCustomObjectFormatter(function(obj) {
if (typeof obj.fooId !== 'number') {
return undefined;
}
return '[Foo with ID ' + obj.fooId + ']';
});
Unlike `jasmineToString`, custom object formatters are scoped to a
particular spec or suite and don't require any changes to the code
under test.
This will allow us to add support for custom object formatters, which
will be a per-runable resource like custom matchers, by injecting them
into the pretty-printer.
This makes it easier to write high quality matchers and asymmetric equality
testers, and is also a step toward supporting custom object formatters.
Previously, Jasmine passed custom object formatters as the second argument
to matcher factories and as and the second argument to asymmetric equality
testers' `asymmetricMatch` method. Matchers and asymmetric equality testers
were responsible for passing the custom object formatters to methods like
`matchersUtil#equals`:
function toEqual(util, customEqualityTesters) {
return {
compare: function(actual, expected) {
// ...
result.pass = util.equals(actual, expected, customEqualityTesters, diffBuilder);
And:
ArrayContaining.prototype.asymmetricMatch = function(other, customTesters) {
// ...
for (var i = 0; i < this.sample.length; i++) {
var item = this.sample[i];
if (!j$.matchersUtil.contains(other, item, customTesters)) {
return false;
}
}
With this change, that is no longer necessary. Matchers and asymmetric
equality testers can ignore the existence of custom equality testers and
still fully support them:
function toEqual(util) {
return {
compare: function(actual, expected) {
// ...
result.pass = util.equals(actual, expected, diffBuilder);
And:
ArrayContaining.prototype.asymmetricMatch = function(other, matchersUtil) {
// ...
for (var i = 0; i < this.sample.length; i++) {
var item = this.sample[i];
if (!matchersUtil.contains(other, item)) {
return false;
}
}
The old interfaces are still supported, for now, but will be deprecated
in a future commit and removed in the next major release after that.
In addition to making matchers and custom equality testers simpler,
this change sets the stage for adding support for custom object
formatters. Those will be architecturally similar to custom equality
testers, and by injecting a `MatchersUtil` instance everywhere we can
add them without requiring user code to pass them around as used to be
the case with custom object formatters.
Property tests can only run in Node, so they were previously in another
directory that only gets run in Node. Now they're next to the related
non-property tests and marked pending in the browser. This makes it more
likely that a developer who normally only runs tests in the browser will
notice and run them.
Turns this output:
Expected $[0].foo = Object({ a: 4, b: 5 }) to equal <jasmine.objectContaining(Object({ a: 1, c: 3 }))>.
into this:
Expected $[0].foo.a = 4 to equal 1.
Expected $[0].foo.c = undefined to equal 3.
And turns this output:
Expected spy jasmineDone to have been called with:
[ ... snipped very long expected call ]
but actual calls were:
[ ... snipped very long actual call ]
Call 0:
Expected $[0] = Object({ overallStatus: 'failed', totalTime: 1, incompleteReason: undefined, order: Order({ random: true, seed: '88732', sort: Function }), failedExpectations: [ Object({ matcherName: 'toBeResolved', passed: false, message: 'Suite "a suite" ran a "toBeResolved" expectation after it finished.

into this:

Call 0:
Expected $[0].failedExpectations[0].globalErrorType = 'lateExpeztation' to equal 'lateExpectation'.
