Java libraries for Test-First Design and interactive games for novices

javalibtester's Issues

GitHub is deprecating direct downloads; need to mark a version of the library as a release

According to http://www.ccs.neu.edu/javalib/Tester/, GitHub provides "sources, documentation and downloads" for the Tester libraries. Going to the repo homepage on GitHub, there is no longer a downloads button. A direct link, https://github.com/downloads/TesterViera/JavaLibTester/tester-1.5.2.1.jar, still works but is undiscoverable -- and according to https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads, they'll continue to work for now. Still, a better solution is to create "releases", according to that page.

Constructor blocks cause test failures

This program demonstrates a possible bug in the tester library with
array lists constructed using constructor blocks. The first test
does not use constructor blocks and works as expected. The second
gives equivalent definitions in terms of constructor blocks, but
causes an error when tested.

Note that the reported actual and expected values are Examples(!)
objects, not array lists.
