Full Release Notes

Enhancements

The Diffblue index database is now using Xodus (instead of LMDB). The index occupies less space on Windows now and it does not extract binaries to a temporary file any more (which was causing issues with corporate security policies). [Ref: TG-11010]

Known issues

  • IntelliJ: Cancelling the indexing job causes exception. [Ref: TG-11074]

  • CLI: --verbose works on command line, but not via the configuration file. [Ref: TG-11062]

  • CLI: Duplicated tests may be produced when using the option --advanced=true. [Ref: TG-10949]

  • CLI: The option --advanced=true is present, but it is not supported on Windows. [Ref: TG-10870]

  • CLI: The option --patch-only is present, but does not work yet. [Ref: TG-10811]

  • IntelliJ: ‘Suggest assertions’ sometimes errors with AssertionSuggestionException: Runner timeout causing the feature to become unavailable. Restarting IntelliJ usually makes it available again. [Ref: TG-10798]

  • Intellij: If writing essential test on an instance method of a class without accessible constructor fails then a wrong warning is shown stating that the method itself is unaccessible. [Ref: TG-10794]

  • CLI: If the analyzed module has a logback.xml file then logback warnings are displayed while running the CLI. [Ref: TG-10793]

  • CLI: Sometimes output from threads in the analyzed module is displayed while running the CLI. [Ref: TG-10792]

  • IntelliJ: Preferences are set globally and not on a per-project basis. [Ref: TG-9348]

Dependencies for written tests

  • JUnit: 4.7-4.12
