• Work on a pages that modify Array.prototype (@SevInf).

• Works on Windows again (@SevInf).

• Add sendFile action which now should be used instead of sendKeys to set a file to input[type=file] elements (@SevInf).
• Correctly parse box-shadow in IE9 (@scf2k).
• Fail only single test if reference image is not found (@SevInf).

• Coverage generator now follows symlinks while resolving the paths to CSS files. So the final report will have real paths but not pointing to symlinks.

• Move the coverage HTML templating code to separate module (gemini-coverage).
• Detailed error message when capture region exceeds screenshot area. Such error also will now fail only single state instead of a whole testing process (@SevInf).

• Ignore ``@keyframes` at-rule while collecting coverage (@scf2k).

• Replace GraphicsMagick with lightweight png-img library (@j0tunn). As for this version, gemini no longer requires any external tool for image processing.

• CSS coverage now supports source maps (@scf2k). If your CSS has the sourcemap, coverage report will show original files.

  You can use sourceRoot option to tell gemini where are your sources located on a filesystem.

• CSS coverages statistics will now also be written to coverage.json file (@scf2k).

• Add coverageExclude option to allow exclude certain files from coverage report (@scf2k).

• Add index page to coverage report and improve appearance of a the coverage pages (@scf2k).

• Restructure documentation and add quick start guide in russian and english (@jk708).

• Reset cursor position before reloading the page. When resetting it just after page load, old cursor position may trigger some transitions which will not be finished before first screenshot.

• test command will exit with correct codes

• New image comparison algorithm is implemented:

  • gm compare replaced with custom diff. For now, GraphicsMagick is still required for other image manipulations.
  • tolerance setting is removed in favor of "strict mode": by default, only noticable changes (according to ciede2000 metric) will be treated as failure, to treat all changes that way user can enable strictComparison option.
  • in case if some element in focus during test can potentially have blinking caret displayed, diff will try to ignore caret.

• Remove built-in TeamCity reporter. If you really want it, you can adapt 0.7.x reporter to the current version of gemini and publish it in separate package.

• Remove legacy ability to specify browsers as array which was deprecated since 0.4.0.

• Add experimental programmatic API.

• Add --grep option to gather and test commands, which allows to execute only suites, matching the pattern (@scf2k).

• Show required dimensions in error message when origin does not fir to full-page screenshot (@scf2k)

• Show meaningful error when capture area origin does not fit to full-page screenshot. This change can break some of your tests (@scf2k).
• Add experimental CSS-coverage report. Enable with --coverage CLI flag or coverage: true in config (@scf2k).
• Add ability to override gridUrl,rootUrl, screenshotsDir, debug config options by their respective CLI options or environment variables (@arikon).
• Add config option windowSize to specify default size of the browser windows (@scf2k).
• Add action setWindowSize to specify browser window size during the tests (@scf2k).

Was republished as 0.7.0 due to a breaking change.

• Add command line completion (@unlok).
• Show an error, when config file has unknown options.
• Add focus(element) action (@arikon).

• Allow to use empty string with sendKeys. It can be used to focus on an element without changing states.

• Reset mouse position for each suite. Previously, cursor may stay at the position left from a previous suite and some elements was captured with hover effect when there shouldn't be any.

• Fix incorrect capture region rounding, causing bottom row of the element to be cropped sometimes.

• :before and :after pseudo-elements outline and shadow are now taken into account when calculating capture region(@incorp).

  This change can break some of your tests. Re-gather reference images to fix the problem.

• Added tolerance config option which can be used to specify maximum error rate before images will be treated as unequal. Default tolerance to 0. This is stricter then previous versions: now every, even slightest difference between reference and current images will fail tests.

  Set tolerance to 0.001 in .gemini.yml to restore 0.5.x behavior.

• Coordinates of capture region are now rounded to capture maximal area. Previously, border pixels could be cropped, due to rounding error. This change can break some of your tests. Re-gather reference images to fix the problem.

• Added ability to change diff highlight color in config file.

• Change diff highlight style

• Global installations of gemini now runs local one, if available.

• Browsers are now launched once for each run (previously, they were launched once per suite). This greatly reduces total tests run time, but can break some of your code, i.e. each mouseDown should always be closed by mouseUp. Previously, this was not required if mouseDown was used once for suite. It will show warning if versions of the modules does not match.
• flat reporter replaces tree. Tree reporter can not work with new browser launch model.
• Add parallelLimit option that allows to limit number of browsers run in parallel.
• Add suite.after() which can be used to perform some action after all of the states without taking screenshot.
• Unknown errors, returned by Selenium have more detailed report.
• Fix --version option.

• Fix missing images in html report.

• Correctly detect crop region in Firefox

• Crop region for screenshots is calculated via client script inside browser instead of gemini. This allows to issue fewer requests to Selenium Server speeding up total tests run time. This feature breaks compatibility with old browsers (IE < 9).

• New config format, which allows to specify full set of capabilities for browsers:

  browsers:
    phantomjs: phantomjs
    opera12:
        browserName: opera
        version: '12.06'
        platform: 'WINDOWS'
    firefox28:
        browserName: firefox
        version: '28.0'
    firefox27:
        browserName: firefox
        version: '27.0'

• Correctly capture screenshots of regions out of initial browser viewport in browsers, that can't capture full page (Opera and Chrome at the time of writing).

• outline-width of an elements is now also taken into account when calculating crop region.

• Add debug options to config file. If set to true, gemini will print debug logs to STDOUT. (@arikon).

• Add http section to config file which allows to configure HTTP timeout (http.timeout) retry count (http.retries) and delay between retries (http.retryDelay). (@arikon).

• Asynchronous errors stacktraces in browser actions (such as not found element) will point to users code.

• More HTTP requests to Selenium will run in parallel speeding up gather/test commands (@arikon).

• If gemini is run without subcommand, help text will be shown.

• Enhanced html report:
  • suites are now collapsible;
  • all but failed suites are collapsed by default;
  • buttons to expand all, collapse all and expand only errors are added;
  • stats of total numbers of tests run, failed, succeeded and skipped are shown at the top.

• Allow to use multiple reporters in test command.
• Throw error when creating multiple suites of the same name within the same parent.
• Throw error when creating multiple states of the same name within the suite.
• Throw error when creating suite that will be unable to run ( has states and hasn't url or capture region);
• Check argument types of SuiteBuilder methods.
• Check argument types of all actions methods.
• Shorter stacktraces for invalid elements errors.
• Correctly handle offsets in mouseMove actions.
• Fix error when gridUrl was required even if there is only phantomjs browser.

• Allow to override gridUrl and rootUrl settings with cli options --grid-url and --root-url.
• Correctly report error, when wrong argument passed to an action.

• Ability to set additional capabilities for all browsers, using capabilities option in .gemini.yml:

  capabilities:
    option1: value,
    option2: value

• Non-existent directories, passed to gather and test commands will be filtered out

• If fatal error occurs, gemini will always exit with 1 status code

• If test fails or state error occurs, gemini will always exit with 2 status code.

• When gemini is unable to launch browser, more clearer error message will be displayed.

• Elements to take screen shots of and elements to perform action on are now defined differently. setElements and setDynmaicElements methods removed.

  New way to define elements for screenshot:

  suite.setCaptureElements('.selector1', '.selector2', ...)

  Or using array:

  suite.setCaptureElements(['.selector1', '.selector2', ...])

  To get element to perform action on, you can now pass selectors directly to the actions:

  suite.capture('state', function(actions, find) {
      actions.click('.button');
  });

  To avoid multiple lookups for the same element you can use find function which is now passed to the state callback:

  suite.capture('state', function(actions, find) {
      var button = find('.button');
      actions.mouseMove(button);
             .click(button);
  });

• Add suite.before(function(action, find)) which can be used to perform some actions before the first state. Context is shared between before hook and all of suite's state callbacks.

  You can use before to look for element only once for the state:

  suite.before(function(actions, find) {
      this.button = find('.buttons');
  })
  .capture('hovered', function(actions, find) {
      actions.mouseMove(this.button);
  })
  .capture('pressed', function(actions, find) {
      actions.mouseDown(this.button);
  });

  Or to perform some actions before first state without taking screenshot:

  suite.before(function(actions, find) {
      actions.click('.button');
  });

• Add suite.skip() method which allows to skip suite in some set of browsers:

  • suite.skip() - skip in all browsers.
  • suite.skip('chrome') - skip in all versions of Chrome.
  • suite.skip({name: 'chrome', version: '33.0'}) - skip in Chrome 33.0
  • suite.skip(['chrome', 'opera']) - skip in Chrome and Opera

• Public API now has constants for special keys to use in sendKeys actions (i.e. gemini.CONTROL for CTRL key).

• Fix a bug with incorrect reference to the suite in states. Because of this bug dynamic elements was not updated properly.

• New test suites API. Plans are replaced by test suites defined by explicit call.

  Old version:

  module.exports = function(plan) {
      plan.setName('some name')
          .setElements(...)
          .setDynamicElements(...)
          .capture(...)
          
  };

  New API:

  var gemini = require('gemini');
  
  gemini.suite('some name', function(suite) {
      suite.setElements(...)
          .setDynamicElements(...)
          .capture(...)
          
  };

  Suites also can be nested. In this case, child suite inherits all properties from the parent.

  gemin.suite('parent', function(suite) {
      gemini.suite('child', function(child) {
          gemini.suite('grandchild', function(grandchild) {
  
          });
      });
  });

• .reload() method is removed. Use nested suite if you need to reload browser.

• Added action to run any JS code in browser context:

  actions.executeJS(function(window) {
      window.alert('Hello!');
  });

• sendKeys action can optionally take an receive an element to send keys to.

  actions.sendKeys(elements.someInput, 'hello');

• Added ability to specify browser version in .gemini.yml

  browsers:
    - {name: 'phantomjs', version: '1.9'}

• Tree reporter is now used for gather command.

• phantomjs always starts maximized. This fixes the error, when some shadows didn't fit in crop rectangle.
• Action on dynamic element that does not currently exists causes non-fatal error. Such error will fail only one state, the rest will continue running.
• gather command now reports browser name.
• browsers are always closed, even if there was an error.

• Initial release
