Changes for version 1.14

  • improve the same_interpreter framework to handle response failures while trying to init and later find out the same interpreter. [Stas]
  • make sure that 'make distclean' cleans all the autogenerated files
  • Stas
    • make sure that if -maxclients option is passed on the command line, minclients will never be bigger than that value [Stas]
    • add -one-process runtime argument, which will start the server in single-server mode (httpd -X in Apache 1.X or httpd -D ONE_PROCESS in 2.X) [Geoffrey Young]
    • In open_cmd, sanitize PATH instead of clearing it [Gozer]
    • Allow / \ and \\ path delimiters in SKIP file [Markus Wichitill <mawic@gmx.de>]
    • Added an apxs query cache for improved test performance [Gozer]
    • run_tests make target no longer invokes t/TEST -clean, making it possible to save a few development cycles when a full cleanup is not required between runs. [Geoffrey Young]
    • Apache::TestSmoke imrovements: [Stas] o the command line option -iterations=N should always be respected (previously it was internally overriden for order!='random'). o since IPC::Run3 broke the Ctrl-C handler, we started to loose any intermediate results, should the run be aborted. So for now, try to always store those results in the temp file: smoke-report...$iter.temp
    • fix 'require blib' in scripts to also call 'blib->import', required to have an effect under perl 5.6.x. [Stas]
    • don't allow running an explicit 'perl Makefile.PL', when Apache-Test is checked out into the modperl-2.0 tree, since it then decides that it's a part of the modperl-2.0 build and will try to use modperl httpd/apxs arguments which could be unset or wrong [Stas]
    • Fix skip test suite functionality in the interactive configuration phase [Stas]
    • s/die/CORE::die/ after exec() to avoid warnings (and therefore failures) when someone overrides CORE::die when using Apache-Test
  • William McKee, Stas
