On September 28, 2024, we released fileparamunit v0.0.5. This is a maintenance release dedicated to ensuring the library remains compatible with the latest testing ecosystems and adheres to modern security standards for build artifacts.

What’s new

While v0.0.5 doesn’t introduce new functional features to the @ListFileSource implementation, it brings critical updates to the project’s foundation:

  • Updated Testing Dependencies: We’ve bumped the versions of JUnit 5 (to 5.11.1) and Mockito (to 5.14.0), ensuring that users can leverage the latest stability and performance improvements from these industry-standard libraries.
  • Enhanced Build Security: We’ve integrated build provenance attestation into our release workflow. This provides a verifiable record of how the library was built, increasing transparency and security for our users.
  • Tooling & Documentation: Various Maven plugins were updated to their latest versions, and we’ve cleaned up our README badges to better reflect the project’s current status.

Why it matters

Maintenance releases are the unsung heroes of software stability. By keeping JUnit and Mockito up to date, we ensure that fileparamunit continues to work seamlessly as your own project evolves and adopts newer versions of the Java testing stack.

Furthermore, the addition of build provenance is a step forward in our commitment to a secure software supply chain. Users can now have greater confidence in the authenticity of the artifacts they integrate into their enterprise build pipelines.

Getting started with v0.0.5

Upgrading to v0.0.5 is straightforward. Simply update the version number in your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.unitvectory</groupId>
    <artifactId>fileparamunit</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.5</version>
</dependency>

Since this is a maintenance release with no breaking changes, your existing @ListFileSource tests will continue to function exactly as before, now backed by updated dependencies.
