ReferenceTests is not compatible with ImageInTerminal `0.5.0`

[adrhill]

ReferenceTests makes use of ImageInTerminal's encodeimg, which appears to have been deprecated in ImageInTerminal 0.5.0.

ReferenceTests.jl/src/fileio.jl

Line 59 in 852eba7

strs = @withcolor ImageInTerminal.encodeimg(

However ImageInTerminal 0.5.0 is allowed in [compat]:

ReferenceTests.jl/Project.toml

Line 28 in 852eba7

ImageInTerminal = "0.3, 0.4, 0.5"

This currently breaks CI of packages using ReferenceTests. @t-bltg

Sorry about that.
Hum it seems that ci wasn't even green before merging #115.
==> This was induced by the circular dependency.

@oxinabox , @johnnychen94 , should we yank and rework that release since it already seems to affect users ?

The circular dependency makes it not ideal for testing before releasing...

I confirm that the issue is affecting my tests as well. Em ter., 9 de ago. de 2022 19:09, t-bltg ***@***.***> escreveu:

Yeah if someone could yank that one quickly, I'll sort it out tomorrow (afk right now).

The next question is, will a ReferenceTests breaking release 0.10 be acceptable?

I know many people don't hardcode the compat section for their test dependencies, so they'll still see their CI red if some of the test depend on the text reference version of an image, e.g., @test_reference "imagetest1.txt" testimage("cameraman").

I guess the root cause of not writing test [compat] is the new test depencencies spec (test/Project.toml) not being complete, over the old one.

Well ... code isn't written in stone, so we should be able to release a breaking version (minor bump).
