Fix Apache::TestConfigParse to handle quoted Include arguments [Stas]

Fix Apache::TestServer::wait_till_is_up not to bail out if the server
takes time to start and LWP is not available. [Stas]

Fix Apache::TestConfigParse to handle glob includes, like Include
conf/*.conf on RedHat [Philippe M. Chiasson]

Fix Apache::TestConfig::add_config not to append " " at the end of the
config lines. This was a problem with config sections imported from
.pm files, the appended "" made it impossible to have multi-line
directives using \ [Stas]

Fix a bug in '-port select' which was incorrectly using the same port
twice [Stas]

added bugreport and file argument options to 
Apache::TestRun::generate_script() [Geoffrey Young]



=item 1.06 - November 10, 2003

added -startup_timeout and $ENV{APACHE_TEST_STARTUP_TIMEOUT} as places
to specify the maximum number of seconds to wait for the test
server to start.  the default is still 60 seconds.  [Geoffrey Young]

use apxs PREFIX to resolve relative httpd.conf directives
ServerRoot is not present [Mike Cramer]

add support for a new subclass method 'bug_report', which if provided
will be called when 'make test' fails. we use it in mod_perl to print
the pointers on how to proceed when the failure occurs. [Stas]

sudo and su -u aren't portable, therefore use a simple setuid/setguid
perl program instead, to check whether the root directory of the test
suite is rwx by the user/group apache is going to run under (when
running 'make test' as root). [Stas]



=item 1.05 - October 23, 2003

core scanning changes [Stas]
- speedup by not chdir'ing into subdirs
- an optional scanning of only t/ dir (used by TestSmoke)
- don't scan on win32, since it has no core files

in the autogenerated t/conf/modperl_inc.pl don't add the project/lib
directory, unless a special env var APACHE_TEST_LIVE_DEV is true. This
is because some projects change things in project/blib and pushing
project/lib on top of @INC, breaks the test suite for them [Stas]

TestRun was using httpd.pid file to ensure that the server is killed
before starting it, if the file existed. This was a problem on win32
platforms, where a process scheduler tries to re-use the pids that
were just freed, which may have killed a valid process which is not
even Apache.exe. So we try not to rely on that file, and if the server
wasn't properly stopped and still running, users will learn about
that, since the port will be busy, and Apache will fail to
start. Users have to kill it manually. TestSmoke is no longer using an
explicit kill `cat httpd.pid` to stop Apache, but delegates the
stopping procedure to TestRun [Steve Hay, Randy Kobes]

use IPC::Run3 in Apache::TestSmoke to run t/TEST commands,
so as t/SMOKE can be used on Win32 [Stas, Steve Hay, Randy Kobes]

place mod_perl-specific directives in <IfModule> containers
within httpd.conf, allowing the default server to start if
mod_perl isn't present.  [Geoffrey Young]

fix t/request.t to get /index.html, instead of / since not everybody
uses mod_dir [Steve Piner <stevep@marketview.co.nz>]

when testing whether Apache started as root and running under 'nobody'
or alike, will be able to -r/-w/-x in t/ use 'su' instead of 'sudo',
the latter is not available on all unix platforms. [Vivek Khera
<khera@kcilink.com>]

in the Apache/test.pm nuke code s/PERLRUN/FULLPERL/ as older MakeMaker
doesn't have the PERLRUN target [Stas]

Apache 1.3 servers now run in standard prefork mode under
normal operation.  single server mode (httpd -X) was replaced
with MaxClients set to 1 by default.  [Geoffrey Young]



=item 1.04 - September 29, 2003

if the server stops reading from the client before it has sent all its
data, Apache::TestClient (which is used when LWP is not available)
would just die without any error message (5.8.1) because no SIGPIPE
handler was setup and the Broken Pipe error was missed. Replacing
'print $s' with $s->send() solves this problem: Apache::TestClient
will just move on without bailing out. [Stas]

if env var APACHE_TEST_PRETEND_NO_LWP is true, Apache::Test will
pretend that LWP is not available. useful for testing whether the test
suite will survive on a system which doesn't have libwww-perl
installed. [Stas]

Apache::TestSmoke provides a new mode: -bug_mode, which runs an
equivalent of plain 't/TEST' but generates a lot of useful debug
information, in addition to matching the core files to the tests that
caused them. [Stas]

Apache::TestSmoke now scans for core files, just like Apache::TestRun
does [Stas]

Allow the creation of name based virtual hosts by supplying
<VirtualHost servername:module> containers in .conf.in$ files.
[André Malo]

fix Apache::TestSSLCA to generate a separate index.txt file for each
module, as on certain platforms openssl fails to re-use the same
file. [Stas]

remove the unused example section from t/conf/extra.conf.in, it made
an assumption that mod_auth is available [Stas]
