v2.23.2

2.23.2

🎉🎉🎉

At long last, some long-standing performance gaps between ginkgo and go test have been resolved!

Ginkgo operates by running go test -c to generate test binaries, and then running those binaries. It turns out that the compilation step of go test -c is slower than go test's compilation step because go test strips out debug symbols (ldflags=-w) whereas go test -c does not.

Ginkgo now passes the appropriate ldflags to go test -c when running specs to strip out symbols. This is only done when it is safe to do so and symbols are preferred when profiling is enabled and when ginkgo build is called explicitly.

This, coupled, with the instructions for disabling XProtect on MacOS yields a much better performance experience with Ginkgo.

v2.23.1

2.23.1

🚨 For users on MacOS 🚨

A long-standing Ginkgo performance issue on MacOS seems to be due to mac's antimalware XProtect. You can follow the instructions here to disable it in your terminal. Doing so sped up Ginkgo's own test suite from 1m8s to 47s.

Fixes

Ginkgo's CLI is now a bit clearer if you pass flags in incorrectly:

• make it clearer that you need to pass a filename to the various profile flags, not an absolute directory [a0e52ff]
• emit an error and exit if the ginkgo invocation includes flags after positional arguments [b799d8d]

This might cause existing CI builds to fail. If so then it's likely that your CI build was misconfigured and should be corrected. Open an issue if you need help.

v2.23.0

2.23.0

Ginkgo 2.23.0 adds a handful of methods to GinkgoT() to make it compatible with the testing.TB interface in Go 1.24. GinkgoT().Context(), in particular, is a useful shorthand for generating a new context that will clean itself up in a DeferCleanup(). This has subtle behavior differences from the golang implementation but should make sense in a Ginkgo... um... context.

Features

• bump to go 1.24.0 - support new testing.TB methods and add a test to cover testing.TB regressions [37a511b]

Fixes

• fix edge case where build -o is pointing at an explicit file, not a directory [7556a86]
