1.8.0
New features/ minor changes
- Matchers have new, simpler (and documented) interface.
- Catch provides string and vector matchers.
- For details see Matchers documentation.
- Changed console reporter test duration reporting format (#322)
- Old format:
Some simple comparisons between doubles completed in 0.000123s
- New format:
xxx.123s: Some simple comparisons between doubles
(There will always be exactly 3 decimal places)
- Old format:
- Added opt-in leak detection under MSVC + Windows (#439)
- Enable it by compiling Catch's main with
CATCH_CONFIG_WINDOWS_CRTDBG
- Enable it by compiling Catch's main with
- Introduced new compile-time flag,
CATCH_CONFIG_FAST_COMPILE
, trading features for compilation speed.- Moves debug breaks out of tests and into implementation, speeding up compilation time by ~XX%
- More changes are coming
- Added TAP (Test Anything Protocol) and Automake reporters.
- These are not present in the default single-include header and need to be downloaded from GitHub separately.
- For details see documentation about integrating with build systems.
- XML reporter now reports filename as part of the
Section
andTestCase
tags. Approx
now supports an optional margin of absolute error- It has also received new documentation.
Fixes
- Silenced C4312 ("conversion from int to 'ClassName *") warnings in the evaluate layer.
- Fixed C4512 ("assignment operator could not be generated") warnings under VS2013.
- Cygwin compatibility fixes
- Signal handling is no longer compiled by default.
- Usage of
gettimeofday
inside Catch should no longer cause compilation errors.
- Improved
-Wparentheses
supression for gcc (#674)- When compiled with gcc 4.8 or newer, the supression is localized to assertions only
- Otherwise it is supressed for the whole TU
- Fixed test spec parser issue (with escapes in multiple names)
Other
- Various documentation fixes and improvements
1.7.2
Fixes and minor improvements
Xml:
(technically the first two are breaking changes but are also fixes and arguably break few if any people)
- C-escape control characters instead of XML encoding them (which requires XML 1.1)
- Revert XML output to XML 1.0
- Can provide stylesheet references by extending the XML reporter
- Added description and tags attribites to XML Reporter
- Tags are closed and the stream flushed more eagerly to avoid stdout interpolation
Other:
REQUIRE_THROWS_AS
now catches exception byconst&
and reports expected type- In
SECTION
s the file/ line is now of theSECTION
. not theTEST_CASE
- Added std:: qualification to some functions from C stdlib
- Removed use of RTTI (
dynamic_cast
) that had crept back in - Silenced a few more warnings in different circumstances
- Travis improvements
1.7.1
Fixes:
- Fixed inconsistency in defining
NOMINMAX
andWIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
insidecatch.hpp
. - Fixed SEH-related compilation error under older MinGW compilers, by making Windows SEH handling opt-in for compilers other than MSVC.
- For specifics, look into the documentation.
- Fixed compilation error under MinGW caused by improper compiler detection.
- Fixed XML reporter sometimes leaving an empty output file when a test ends with signal/structured exception.
- Fixed XML reporter not reporting captured stdout/stderr.
- Fixed possible infinite recursion in Windows SEH.
- Fixed possible compilation error caused by Catch's operator overloads being ambiguous in regards to user-defined templated operators.
1.7.0
Features/ Changes:
- Catch now runs significantly faster for passing tests
- Microbenchmark focused on Catch's overhead went from ~3.4s to ~0.7s.
- Real world test using JSON for Modern C++'s test suite went from ~6m 25s to ~4m 14s.
- Catch can now run specific sections within test cases.
- For now the support is only basic (no wildcards or tags), for details see the documentation.
- Catch now supports SEH on Windows as well as signals on Linux.
- After receiving a signal, Catch reports failing assertion and then passes the signal onto the previous handler.
- Approx can be used to compare values against strong typedefs (available in C++11 mode only).
- Strong typedefs mean types that are explicitly convertible to double.
- CHECK macro no longer stops executing section if an exception happens.
- Certain characters (space, tab, etc) are now pretty printed.
- This means that a
char c = ' '; REQUIRE(c == '\t');
would be printed as' ' == '\t'
, instead of== 9
.
- This means that a
Fixes:
- Text formatting no longer attempts to access out-of-bounds characters under certain conditions.
- THROW family of assertions no longer trigger
-Wunused-value
on expressions containing explicit cast. - Breaking into debugger under OS X works again and no longer required
DEBUG
to be defined. - Compilation no longer breaks under certain compiler if a lambda is used inside assertion macro.
Other:
- Catch's CMakeLists now defines install command.
- Catch's CMakeLists now generates projects with warnings enabled.
1.6.1
Features/ Changes:
- Catch now supports breaking into debugger on Linux
Fixes:
- Generators no longer leak memory (generators are still unsupported in general)
- JUnit reporter now reports UTC timestamps, instead of "tbd"
CHECK_THAT
macro is now properly defined asCATCH_CHECK_THAT
when usingCATCH_
prefixed macros
Other:
- Types with overloaded
&&
operator are no longer evaluated twice when used in an assertion macro. - The use of
__COUNTER__
is supressed when Catch is parsed by CLion- This change is not active when compiling a binary
- Approval tests can now be run on Windows
- CMake will now warn if a file is present in the
include
folder but not is not enumerated as part of the project - Catch now defines
NOMINMAX
andWIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
before includingwindows.h
- This can be disabled if needed, see documentation for details.
1.6.0
Cmake/ projects:
- Moved CMakeLists.txt to root, made it friendlier for CLion and generating XCode and VS projects, and removed the manually maintained XCode and VS projects.
Features/ Changes:
- Approx now supports
>=
and<=
- Can now use
\
to escape chars in test names on command line - Standardize C++11 feature toggles
Fixes:
- Blue shell colour
- Missing argument to
CATCH_CHECK_THROWS
- Don't encode extended ASCII in XML
- use
std::shuffle
on more compilers (fixes deprecation warning/error) - Use
__COUNTER__
more consistently (where available)
Other:
- Tweaks and changes to scripts - particularly for Approval test - to make them more portable

Release notes were not maintained prior to v1.6.0, but you should be able to work them out from the Git history
