⚠️ Reverted behavior of Arb.string()

With Kotest 5.6.0, Codepoint.ascii() was changed to include a wider range of ascii chararacters, and Codepoint.printableAscii() was introduced with the historic range used by Codepoint.ascii().

Arb.string() has been using Codepoint.ascii() as it's default for generating chars for the string. This caused issues for some users, and we decided to revert Arb.string() to the historic behavior by changing the default to the new Codepoint.printableAscii().

Hopefully this doesn't cause any issues for you. If it does, you can revert to the 5.6.0 ~ 5.6.1 behavior by using Codepoint.ascii() explicitly.

If you added explicit usage of Codepoint.printableAscii() to circumvent the issue, you can safely remove the explicit parameter starting with Kotest 5.6.2.

v5.5.4

Fixes issue 3277.

gradle test --tests "A*" --tests "B*"

All tests from A* and B* were skipped instead of being ran.

This was a regression from 5.4.x, where this used to work. This was because kotest 5.5.3 were using the wrong combinators for combining the inclusion filters.

Contributors:

v5.5.3: 5.5.3

Updated JUnit version from 5.7.2 to 5.8.2

Kotest now requires the runtime version of JUnit to be at least 5.8

Note: If your build somehow manages to put both JUnit 5.7 and 5.8 onto the classpath and they load in the wrong order, you might see problems related to ClassOrderer not being found. Please make sure that only JUnit 5.8+ is loaded

v5.5.2

Gradle test filter fixes, by @​myuwono #​3257
Tag inheritance configuration is now available on AbstractProjectConfig

v5.5.1: 5.5.1

Fixed an issue where tests where being skipped when filtered out by the full spec name

v5.4.2: 5.4.2

v5.0.1
