Version 2.3.0

Version 2.2.0

  • Fixed C compiler warnings for windows

  • Checks for integerish now compare the tolerance with the difference to the nearest integer with > instead of >= to allow specifying a tolerance of exactly 0 (#177).
  • Checks for integerish now check for class Date an POSIXt.
  • Coercion of double to integer in assertInt() and assertIntegerish() now round to the nearest integer instead of always rounding via trunc().

  • New exported C function qcheck() (#180).
  • Fixed a bug in checkFunction(..., ordered = TRUE) (#204).
  • Removed deprecated S macro DOUBLE_EPS from C source.

Version 2.0.0

  • Expectations now optionally support the package tinytest. tinytest is used as backend if it is attached, otherwise checkmate defaults to testthat. There is now also a vignette on how to setup checkmate for tinytest.
  • Coercion now only affects double vectors.
  • Improved error message for type detection in *List.
  • Removed *Bit, the bit package is orphaned.
  • Fixed documentation.

Version 1.9.3

  • New argument extension for checkPathForOutput() (#162).
  • Fixed handling of different NA types in all set functions (#158).
  • expect_vector removed due to a nameclash with package testthat.

Version 1.9.0

  • Error messages now provide more information about error locations, e.g., the position of the first missing element in a vector.
  • If the object to check is missing, assert-functions now give a better error message, test-functions are always FALSE and expect-functions always raise an exception.
  • Checks for missingness and sort order optimized for ALTREPs.
  • The calling frame reported in assertions is now identical to the calling frame reported by R's stop() function (#117).

  • Added abbreviation "p" to qassert to check for POSIXct objects.
  • Added argument coerce to assertCount/assert_count, assertInt/assert_int and assertIntegerish/assert_integerish which optionally coerces x to integer after an successful assertion. This supersedes the functions asCount, asInt and asInteger (#77).
  • Added arguments max.rows and max.cols to check for maximum number of rows and columns for matrices, data.frames, tibbles and data.tables.
  • Added argument disjunct.from to *Names.
  • Fixed an error message in checkChoice.

Version 1.8.4

  • New functions to test bit vectors implemented in package bit.
  • New functions to test R6 classes implemented in package R6.
  • Always load (not attach) the respective namespace if checking for objects of type data.table, tibble, R6 or bit. This ensures that all operations work as expected after the check.
  • *Names with type="unnamed" now works with NULL.
  • New argument must.include for *Names.
  • Fixed possible protection stack imbalance as reported by rchk.

Version 1.8.3

  • New argument sorted (defaults to FALSE) for *Integer, *Integerish and Numeric to check for ascending order of vector elements.
  • New argument null.ok (defaults to FALSE) for *Choice and *Class.
  • *Subset now allows to pass empty vectors to choices.
  • Improved error message for *Choice.
  • The set family of functions is now more restrict regarding the class, e.g. they differentiate between factors and characters.
  • *Character and *String now ignores missing values in regular expressions and for string length checks (using argument min.chars). To disallow missing values, set any.missing or na.ok, respectively.
  • *Date now ignores missing values in for lower/upper bound checks. To disallow missing values, set any.missing to FALSE. Thanks to Will Beasley (@wibeasley) for the PR.
  • Package microbenchmark is no longer strictly required to build the vignette. If not installed, some output and figures will be missing though.

Version 1.8.2

  • *Matrix and *Array now additionally allow to check for integerish storage type via argument "mode".
  • Functions *Count, *Int, *Number, *Integer, *Integerish and *Numeric do not accept logical values any more.
  • checkAtomicVector is now more restrictive and prohibits a dimension symbol. Thus, a matrix is not considered an atomic vector any more.
  • Dropped support for AssertCollections in convert functions (asInt, asInteger and asCount).
  • Added checkTibble.

Version 1.8.1

  • Function test_file is longer exported.
  • *Function does not longer lookup functions with match.fun. As a result, passing functions via the string of the function name stopped working.
  • In qassert using f as first char in a rule now specifies factor (before: function).

Version 1.8.0

  • Most functions now support the handling of default arguments encoded as NULL via argument null.ok.
  • Functions *File and *Directory are deprecated due to name clashes and will be removed in a future version. Please use *FileExists or *DirectoryExists instead.
  • New helper function matchArg to provide a simple an easy way for partial argument matching in combination with an AssertCollection.
  • Added alias functions for all check functions (check_*) to provide support for the underscore programming style in assert().

Version 1.7.4

  • Compatibility with the upcoming testthat version.
  • expect_ functions now return the checked object invisibly.
  • Changed default of argument .var.name for assertions and label for expectations: They now default to the return value of the exported function vname (instead of missing which confuses some linters).
  • Fixed error message in convert functions: Variable name was not properly looked up by the heuristic.
  • Fixed a bug in qassertr and qtestr where the error message was not properly generated if multiple rules were provided.
  • New argument depth for qtestr to control the recursion depth while checking nested lists.

Version 1.7.3

  • Added checkDate.
  • Argument .var.name of assert functions now has \code{NULL} as default value (instead of missing).
  • Fixed a bug in *OS functions.
  • Fixed a bug in *Directory functions.
  • New argument extension for the *File family of functions.

Version 1.7.2

  • Added checkOS().
  • Argument fixed for *Character functions now accepts a string instead of a boolean value and thus can directly be used for a substring search.
  • New arguments min.chars, pattern, fixed and ignore.case for the *String family of functions.
  • Exported helper functions wf (which.first) and wl (which.last).
  • Now importing the new backports package for functions lengths() and dir.exists.

Version 1.7.1

  • Fixed a segfault while checking an upper bound in qassert/qtest.
  • Some minor speedups

Version 1.7.0

  • Added alias functions for all functions to support the underscore style, e.g. assert_numeric is the new alias for assertNumeric and test_matrix is the alias for test_matrix.
  • All assert functions now invisibly return the tested object instead of TRUE and thus can be used with magrittr pipes.
  • Improved speed for most functions by reducing the .Call overhead (Thanks to Hadley Wickham).
  • Added *DataTable functions to properly test primary and secondary keys of data tables.
  • Removed *Percentage family of functions.
  • Exported functions makeAssertion, makeTest and makeExpectation to assist expanding the package with user-generated checks.

  • Assertions can now be collected (via makeAssertCollection()) and reported (via reportAssertions()).
  • qassert() can now perform bound checks on strings.
  • The default for the parameter "ordered" of the *SetEqual functions is now set to FALSE, as described in the documentation.

Version 1.6.2

  • Fixed a compile-time warning.
  • checkmate does not import testthat anymore in order to speed up package loading times and to keep the dependencies at a minimum. The expect_* family of functions can still be used, the namespace will be loaded on demand.

Version 1.6.1

  • New family of functions: expect_* is intended to be used in combination with testthat. But note that functions expect_null() and expect_named() are not provided to avoid name clashes with testthat.
  • Added qexpect() and qexpectr().
  • Added argument all.missing for checks of matricies and data frames.
  • Added anyNaN().
