Various enhancements

This release, we have added support for Mockito 4.x.

We have also improved:

• The speed of indexing in our product. 'Behind the scenes' changes mean there is now an increase in indexing speed.

• Our documentation for using Diffblue Cover in the CI pipeline. The updates include scripts and a worked example with exact details of implementation - please have a read here! The image below is an extract:

Enhancements

• Cover now supports Mockito 4. [Ref: TG-15999]

• IntelliJ Plugin: Cover no longer performs a potentially lengthy 'indexing' phase once a project is loaded. [Ref: TG-15540]

• IntelliJ Plugin: Cover no longer attempts to write tests for non-Java files and Java files outside of a folder marked as 'sources root'. [Ref: TG-16032]

Resolved Issues

• CLI: Resolved an issue which caused dcover clean to not consider the working directory in the test output directory specified by --test-output-dir. [Ref: TG-16241]

• IntelliJ Plugin: Resolved an issue which caused Cover to attempt to write tests for anonymous classes. [Ref: TG-16184]

• CLI: Resolved an issue which caused dcover clean --failing to report errors, instead of warnings, when the test source directory could not be found. [Ref: TG-14554]

Known Issues

• CLI: The command dcover clean --failing does not work on Gradle projects. This command is now deprecated and dcover validate should be used instead. [Ref: TG-11707]

• IntelliJ Plugin: Diffblue Cover was unable to create an index error may appear if switching projects happens before Cover has finished indexing. [Ref: TG-13772]

• IntelliJ Plugin: 'Write Test' gutter icons flickering after loading a project or making changes to source code. [Ref: TG-16249]
