Hi,

Joseph Pelrine just released Version 3.1 of SUnit officially.
(There was only a non-official pre-release version available
at SqueakMap).

The SqueakMap has been updated:
http://map2.squeakfoundation.org/sm/package/26bea8bf-733f-4715-b188-fa6d848984ad

For more information, see the new SUnit website:
http://sunit.sourceforge.net

Here's the announcement:

 Sunit 3.1, the mother of all unit testing frameworks, has just been
 officially released on Sourceforge. Now available at
 http://sunit.sourceforge.net, developers can find the new releases,
 development versions, and links to related work.

 SUnit 3.1 is currently available for almost all current Smalltalk
 dialects, and as a back-port to VisualWorks 3. The three remaining ports
 (Smalltalk MT, GemStone, and S#) will be out soon.       

 SUnit 3.1 includes a number of bug fixes, and offers three major
 enhancements over previous versions:

 * resumable TestFailures
 * support for arbitrary description strings on assertions
 * test logging

 For more detailed information about the changes, please look at the News
 page at http://sunit.sourceforge.net.

 SUnit 3.1 was ported using the Rosetta (http://www.metaprog.com/Rosetta)
 technology.The SUnit core and test modules were exported from the
 reference implementation, transformed using Rosetta, file'd into the new
 dialect, and then exported using each dialect's intrinsic source
 delivery mechanism (packages, parcels, etc.). The exact same code base
 is used for all currently available dialects except for Object Studio
 :-( GNU Smalltalk has added a few tweaks to support console-level
 debugging and logging, which will be rolled into the 3.2 release,
 scheduled for the summer of 2003. The reference implementation will soon
 be available on the Rosetta server at Dolphin Harbor
 (http://www.dolphinharbor.org:8010).

 To emphasize SUnit's status as the premier unit testing framework, and
 as one of the flagship Camp Smalltalk projects, SUnit is now a top-level
 project at Sourceforge. The project site http://sunit.sourceforge.net
 sports a new design and Camp Smalltalk logo, both designed by graphics
 artist Claudia Chiecchi. The logo and the web site design template will
 both be made available to all other Camp Smalltalk projects hosted at
 Sourceforge.
