Micro Focus Unit Testing Framework

This release provides the following enhancements:

  • Updates to the test runner command line options:
    • Using the -testcases: option, you can now specify a list of test cases to execute.
    • The new -report:markdown option enables you to produce test reports in github style markdown format (.md).

      You can use various Third-Party utilities such as pandoc to convert .md files into HTML or PDF format.

  • Support for running test suites using dynamic metadata - you use an entry point in the test case and, when it is called during the preparation stage of the test case, you can change various fields exposed through mfunit.cpy to update the metadata of the test case.

    This is an alternative to specifying metadata for a test case in the text fixture file (.mfu).

  • Support is now available for creating and debugging test cases written in procedural managed COBOL (procedural code compiled as managed). The following new test runners are supplied:
    • mfurunil, for .NET COBOL code
    • mfurunj and cobmfurunj for JVM COBOL code.
