fail fails to fail the test immediately

[gqqnbig]

blob/master/README.md says

fail [message]
Fails the test immediately.

I thus tried the following code.

$ cat t.sh
#!/bin/bash

testA() {
    fail "A"
    fail "B"

}

source shunit2

$ ./t.sh
testA
ASSERT:A
ASSERT:B
shunit2:ERROR testA() returned non-zero return code.

Ran 1 test.

FAILED (failures=2)

Because I was told fail fails the test immediately, I expect to only see ASSERT:A. However, I see ASSERT:A and ASSERT:B.

I don't know if it's a documentation bug or code bug. Please fix.

My version is 2.1.9pre.

I'm using this trick to fail a test fast ls /x || return $SHUNIT_FALSE

I think the documentation could be clearer about the fact that any "normal" methods to exit a shell script early on an error such as set -e or set -o errexit seems to have no effect with shunit2

Can you test the current dev version by copy pasting shunit2 from this repository ?
Ref: #164 - some fixes where made for set -e

@williamdes

I don't know what the current dev version is, but I tested https://github.com/kward/shunit2/blob/master/shunit2 again. The output is the same as what I posted one year ago. The problem is not fixed.

Thank you, this is what I expected you to test
Now we are sure some more fixing should be done
