by Ryan Davis 29 Jan '26

29 Jan '26

zenweb version 3.12.0 has been released! * home: <https://github.com/seattlerb/zenweb> * bugs: <https://github.com/seattlerb/zenweb/issues> * rdoc: <http://docs.seattlerb.org/zenweb> Zenweb is a set of classes/tools for organizing and formating a website. It is website oriented rather than webpage oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It is content oriented, rather than style oriented, unlike most rendering tools. It uses a rubygems plugin system to provide a very flexible, and powerful system. Zenweb 3 was inspired by jekyll. The filesystem layout is similar to jekyll's layout, but zenweb isn't focused on blogs. It can do any sort of website just fine. Zenweb uses rake to handle dependencies. As a result, scanning a website and regenerating incrementally is not just possible, it is blazingly fast. #### To Install: Changes: ### 3.12.0 / 2026-01-29 * 2 minor enhancements: * Added Binary subclass of Page: copies file and preserves dates. * Disabled Page#binary and friends. * 2 bug fixes: * Added ability to specify change_frequency in config to force a page's value. * Fixed disqus urls to use https.

[ruby-talk:444766] [ANN] minitest-coverage 1.0.0.b3 Released
by Ryan Davis 12 Jan '26

12 Jan '26

minitest-coverage version 1.0.0.b3 has been released! * home: <https://github.com/seattlerb/minitest-coverage> * rdoc: <http://docs.seattlerb.org/minitest-coverage> Ruby's contemporary test coverage tools all lie, exaggerating coverage through false-positives and creating a false sense of security; minitest-coverage tries to address this. Coverage Analysis Tools rely on tracing facilities built into ruby’s VM. You run your tests, and collect data. Seems simple, but that’s a very flawed approach that buffers your coverage numbers up falsely. I’ve witnessed false coverage by as much as 60%, but it could be even worse. Worse, the tracing facilities currently make it impossible to get truly accurate numbers. Even so, they can be improved to be much more accurate. Changes: ### 1.0.0.b3 / 2026-01-12 * 3 bug fixes: * Bumped ruby dependency to 3.2+ * Don't call Coverage.start in minitest/coverage_plugin.rb * MT6: Load coverage plugin in bin/minitest_coverage.
