Focusing power-assert

AVA comes with power-assert built-in, giving you more descriptive assertion messages. However it's been confusing to understand which assertions come with power-assert. To address this we've added the new t.assert() assertion. It's now the only assertion that is power-assert enabled. The assertion passes if called with a truthy value. Consider this example:

test('enhanced assertions', t => {
	const a = /foo/;
	const b = 'bar';
	const c = 'baz';
	t.assert(a.test(b) || b === c);
});
AVA will output:
6:   const c = 'baz';
7:   t.assert(a.test(b) || b === c);
8: });

Value is not truthy:

false

a.test(b) || b === c
=> false

b === c
=> false

c
=> 'baz'

b
=> 'bar'

a.test(b)
=> false

b
=> 'bar'

a
=> /foo/

Our ESLint plugin has been updated to support this new assertion. Many thanks to @eemed for implementing this! 9406470

Bug fixes

  • Filtered tests (when using --match, .skip() or .only()) are no longer included in the list of pending tests when timeouts occur or when you interrupt a test run. Thanks @vancouverwill! 23e302a
  • We're now shimming all TTY methods in the worker processes, thanks to @okyantoro. c1f6fdf

Documentation updates

  • We've added a note to say that, by default, AVA does not have a default test timeout. Thanks @amokmen! 99a10a1
