Hi,
I am glad to announce the first public release of test-framework-golden — a golden testing library.
Nice!
The library is integrated with test-framework, so you can use golden tests in addition to SmallCheck/QuickCheck/HUnit tests.
I would suggest to rename the modules to
Test.Framework.Golden
and
Test.Framework.Golden.Advanced
to more clearly represent that fact.
According to the test-framework convention, they ought to be named Test.Framework.Providers.Golden and Test.Framework.Providers.Golden.Advanced respectively, and you can see that it was the case in the early versions: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/test-framework-golden-1.0 But it's just too much to type. My justification (which you may or may not buy) is that, unlike, say, Test.Framework.Providers.HUnit, this is not an adaptation of an existing testing library to test-framework, but is a new library that just happens to use test-framework. So it's more like Test.HUnit, although it already subsumes what would become Test.Framework.Providers.Golden. Roman
