1.7.1 - add SAMD21, SAMD51 boards to Tier 1; clean up Flash.h hacks for other boards

• 1.7.1 (2023-06-15)
  • This is a maintenance release, to update the list of supported boards,
    and update the documentation.
    • No functional change.
  • Add MemoryBenchmark to collect flash and
    static memory usage.
    • For consistency with my other arduino libraries.
    • Also enables an automated script to verify that AUnit compiles under
      various microcontrollers.
  • Update supported boards and tiers
    • Update Flash.h to work better with Teensyduino,
      Adafruit SAMD, and Seeeduino SAMD boards by hacking around their bugs
      and inconsistent APIs
    • Add SAMD21 and SAMD51 boards to Tier 1
      • Add 2 SAMD boards from 2 different companies, to test their
        Arduino Core software:
        • Seeeduino XIAO M0 (SAMD21 48MHz ARM Cortex-M0+)
        • Adafruit ItsyBitsy M4 (SAMD51 120MHz ARM Cortex-M4)
      • SAMD21 and SAMD51 boards are back in Tier 1, as long as they use
        the traditional Arduino API instead of the new
        ArduinoCore-API.
      • Fortunately most third party SAMD21 and SAMD51 boards continue to
        use the traditional Arduino API.
    • Move Teensy 3.2 to Tier 2 ("Should work but not tested often")
      • This board is entering end-of-life.
      • As well, the Teensyduino environment integrates with the Arduino
        IDE and CLI in a way that's different than all other third-party
        Arduino boards. Some of my automation scripts do not work with
        Teensyduino, so it becomes very time consuming to test the Teensy
        boards.
      • All Teensy boards are now in Tier 2.
    • The various tiers are documented in the
      README.md.
  • Upgrade tool chain.
    • Arduino CLI from 0.19.2 to 0.33.0
    • Arduino AVR Core from 1.8.4 to 1.8.6
    • STM32duino from 2.2.0 to 2.5.0
    • ESP32 Core from 2.0.2 to 2.0.9
    • Teensyduino from 1.56 to 1.57 (unable to install 1.58)

1.7.0 - change format of assertion failure message for better compatibility with vim and other Unix tools

• 1.7.0 (2022-12-08)
  • Potentially Breaking Change format of assertion failure message from:
    • "Assertion failed: (expected=3) == (counter=4), file AUnitTest.ino,
      line 134.", to
    • "AUnitTest.ino:134: Assertion failed: (expected=3) == (counter=4)."
    • This format is compatible with various Linux/MacOS/Unix command line
      tools, in particular, the vim editor.
    • When used with EpoxyDuino, this message format allows the vim editor
      to jump directly to the file and line where the assertion failure
      occurred.

v1.6.1 - upgrade tool chain; downgrade SAMD21 support; maintenance release, no functional change

• 1.6.1 (2022-02-02)
  • Upgrade tool chain.
    • Arduino IDE from 1.8.13 to 1.8.19
    • Arduino CLI from 0.14.0 to 0.19.2
    • Arduino AVR Core from 1.8.3 to 1.8.4
    • STM32duino from 2.0.0 to 2.2.0
    • ESP8266 Core from 2.7.4 to 3.0.2
    • ESP32 Core from 1.0.6 to 2.0.2
    • Teensyduino from 1.54 to 1.56
  • Downgrade SAMD21 boards into new "Tier 3: May work but unsupported"
    category.
  • This is a maintenance release. No functional change.

v1.6.0 - support include and exclude lists on command line when using EpoxyDuino

• 1.6.0 (2021-11-02)
  • Add TestRunner::includesub(word) and TestRunner::excludesub(word)
    which includes or excludes tests based on the substring match on the
    word.
  • Call excludeAll() if the first filtering request is an include() or
    includesub().
    • Otherwise, the first include request does not do anything.
  • Add command line flags and arguments when compiled under EpoxyDuino.
    See Command Line Flags and
    Arguments in the README.md for
    full details. Fixes
    Issue#76.
    • --include pattern,...
      • Calls TestRunner::include(pattern) on each pattern in the
        comma-separated list.
    • --exclude pattern,...
      • Calls TestRunner::exclude(pattern) on each pattern in the
        comma-separated list.
    • --includesub substring,...
      • Calls TestRunner::includesub(substring) on each substring in
        the comma-separated list.
    • --excludesub substring,...
      • Calls TestRunner::excludesub(substring) on each substring in
        the comma-separated list.
    • substring ...
      • Any remaining space-separated list of words are processed
        using TestRunner::includesub(substring).

v1.5.5 - prevent accidental inclusion of HardwareSerial; blacklist all other platforms using ArduinoCoreAPI

• 1.5.5 (2021-05-03)
  • Prevent accidental inclusion of HardwareSerial class (via the Serial
    global variable). Remove reference to SERIAL_PORT_MONITOR from
    Printer::sPrinter. Move reference to SERIAL_PORT_MONITOR from
    TestRunner.cpp to TestRunner.h. Saves about 800 bytes on AVR applications
    which don't use Serial at all.
  • Activate
    GitHub Discussions
    for this project.
  • Blacklist all other platforms using ArduinoCore-API (e.g. RP2040) to
    generate a user-friendly error message instead of pages of obscure
    compiler errors.

v1.5.4 - implement assertNoFatalFailure(statement) macro

• 1.5.4 (2021-03-02)
  • Implement assertNoFatalFailure(statement) macro to prevent continued
    execution if statement contains assertion failures. Fixes
    Issue #11.

v1.5.3 - remove symlink to make Arduino Library Manager happy

• 1.5.3 (2021-02-23)
  • I botched the 1.5.2 release. Try again as 1.5.3.
• 1.5.2 (2021-02-23)
  • Convert examples/AUnitPlatformIO/src/AUnitPlatformIO.ino from
    a symlink to a regular file. The Arduino Library Manager apparently does
    not allow symlinks (see
    https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/wiki/Library-Manager-FAQ). So when I
    created the symlink at v1.3 on 2019-06-05, the Library Manager stopped
    updating the library for almost 2 years, until I removed the symlink at
    v1.5.2.
  • No functional change in this release.

v1.5.1 - Update UnixHostDuino 0.4 to EpoxyDuino 0.5

• 1.5.1 (2021-01-21)
  • Update UnixHostDuino 0.4 to EpoxyDuino 0.5.
  • No functional change in this release.

v1.5 - support STM32duino, support F() for ESP8266, blacklist megaAVR

• 1.5 (2021-01-18)
  • Add support for STM32duino.
  • Blacklist megaAVR boards due to incompatibility with new Arduino API.
    See Issue #56 (#56).
  • Blacklist SAMD21 boards using arduino:samd core version >= 1.8.10
    due to incompatibility with new Arduino API. See Issue #66
    (#66).
  • Enable F() for ESP8266 since
    esp8266/Arduino#3369 seems to have been fixed
    some time ago.

v1.4.1 - add Table of Contents to README.md

• 1.4.1 (2020-11-12)
  • Add Table of Contents to README.md to help navigation.
  • No functional change in this release.
