Artifacts

As of 2022-04-01 all artifacts are published with a Group-ID of io.github.logrecorder and the major version was increased to 2.x.x. Previously we used to publish under our now deprecated umbrella Group-ID of info.novatec.testit.

Since version 2.5.0 a BOM is provided for easy artifact version management.

Gradle

// regular way
dependencies {
    // import a BOM
    testImplementation(platform("io.github.logrecorder:logrecorder-bom:${property("logRecorderVersion")}"))

    // define dependencies without versions
    testImplementation("io.github.logrecorder:logrecorder-junit5")
    testImplementation("io.github.logrecorder:logrecorder-logback")
    testImplementation("io.github.logrecorder:logrecorder-assertions")
}

// Spring Boot dependency management plugin
dependencyManagement {
  imports {
    mavenBom("io.github.logrecorder:logrecorder-bom:${property("logRecorderVersion")}")
  }
}
