If you need to +make a change: + +* perform the change there, +* do a new crates.io release, and +* send a PR to rust-lang/rust bumping the libtest version. + +## Roadmap + +Right now all the contests of libtest live in the external repo. + +The next steps are: + +* make `#[test]` and `#[ignore]` procedural macros in the prelude by default, + routed to the same procedural macro, so that it doesn't matter which one runs + first. +* move the unstable APIs back into rust-lang/rust to help maintainability + (replacing `pub use libtest::*` with explicit imports) +* migrate libtest to the real `term` crate +* provide `libtest` a real `custom_test_framework` runner (in parallel with the + runner in rust-lang/rust) +* set up `libtest` as a normal `custom_test_framework` inside rust-lang/rust +* refactor the internal structure of `libtest` to make it re-usable by + third-party custom test frameworks (think test formatting, benchmark + formatting, argument parsing, json format serialization, etc.) |
