I’m happy to announce the release of Instinct 0.1.8. This is a maintenance release resolving some minor bugs and packaging issues from the 0.1.7 release.

Chris has been spiking some Spring integration and needed a way to turn off detection of specs based on naming conventions and annotations so this is in this release also. Currently it’s only available via the @Context annotation, so you’ll have to annotate each class you want to override the default behaviour on. If there’s enough interest in this, I’ll add a way to change this globally.

Downloads are available from the project site.

Here’s the full list of changes:

• Core Features
  • Custom specification, before specification and after specification annotations and naming conventions can be provided via the Context annotation. This can also be used to turn off naming convention-based detection (using NoNamingConvention).
• Infrastructure
  • Upgraded to: Functional Java 2.8.
• Bugs
  • (Issue 36) Abstract classes are being run as a result of specification runner refactoring.
  • (Issue 37) Expected exceptions are being printed to console in Ant runner even though spec passes.
  • (Issue 38) Functional java jar is not included in release zip.
