## 3.3.2
### Improvements
* Further reduced allocations
* The compact, console, TAP and XML reporters perform less allocations in various cases
* Removed 1 allocation per entered `SECTION`/`TEST_CASE`.
* Removed 2 allocations per test case exit, if stdout/stderr is captured
* Improved performance
* Section tracking is 10%-25% faster than in v3.3.0
* Assertion handling is 5%-10% faster than in v3.3.0
* Test case registration is 1%-2% faster than in v3.3.0
* Tiny speedup for registering listeners
* Tiny speedup for `CAPTURE`, `TEST_CASE_METHOD`, `METHOD_AS_TEST_CASE`, and `TEMPLATE_LIST_TEST_*` macros.
* `Contains`, `RangeEquals` and `UnorderedRangeEquals` matchers now support ranges with iterator + sentinel pair
* Added `IsNaN` matcher
* Unlike `REQUIRE(isnan(x))`, `REQUIRE_THAT(x, IsNaN())` shows you the value of `x`.
* Suppressed `declared_but_not_referenced` warning for NVHPC (#2637)
### Fixes
* Fixed performance regression in section tracking introduced in v3.3.1
* Extreme cases would cause the tracking to run about 4x slower than in 3.3.0
## 3.3.1
### Improvements
* Reduced allocations and improved performance
* The exact improvements are dependent on your usage of Catch2.
* For example running Catch2's SelfTest binary performs 8k less allocations.
* The main improvement comes from smarter handling of `SECTION`s, especially sibling `SECTION`s
## 3.3.0
### Improvements
* Added `MessageMatches` exception matcher (#2570)
* Added `RangeEquals` and `UnorderedRangeEquals` generic range matchers (#2377)
* Added `SKIP` macro for skipping tests from within the test body (#2360)
* All built-in reporters have been extended to handle it properly, whether your custom reporter needs changes depends on how it was written
* `skipTest` reporter event **is unrelated** to this, and has been deprecated since it has practically no uses
* Restored support for PPC Macs in the break-into-debugger functionality (#2619)
* Made our warning suppression compatible with CUDA toolkit pre 11.5 (#2626)
* Cleaned out some static analysis complaints
### Fixes
* Fixed macro redefinition warning when NVCC was reporting as MSVC (#2603)
* Fixed throws in generator constructor causing the whole binary to abort (#2615)
* Now it just fails the test
* Fixed missing transitive include with libstdc++13 (#2611)
### Miscellaneous
* Improved support for dynamic library build with non-MSVC compilers on Windows (#2630)
* When used as a subproject, Catch2 keeps its generated header in a separate directory from the main project (#2604)
## 3.2.1
### Improvements
* Fix the reworked decomposer to work with older (pre 9) GCC versions (#2571)
* **This required more significant changes to properly support C++20, there might be bugs.**
## 3.2.0
### Improvements
* Catch2 now compiles on PlayStation (#2562)
* Added `CATCH_CONFIG_GETENV` compile-time toggle (#2562)
* This toggle guards whether Catch2 calls `std::getenv` when reading env variables
* Added support for more Bazel test environment variables
* `TESTBRIDGE_TEST_ONLY` is now supported (#2490)
* Sharding variables, `TEST_SHARD_INDEX`, `TEST_TOTAL_SHARDS`, `TEST_SHARD_STATUS_FILE`, are now all supported (#2491)
* Bunch of small tweaks and improvements in reporters
* The TAP and SonarQube reporters output the used test filters
* The XML reporter now also reports the version of its output format
* The compact reporter now uses the same summary output as the console reporter (#878, #2554)
* Added support for asserting on types that can only be compared with literal 0 (#2555)
* A canonical example is C++20's `std::*_ordering` types, which cannot be compared with an `int` variable, only `0`
* The support extends to any type with this property, not just the ones in stdlib
* This change imposes 2-3% slowdown on compiling files that are heavy on `REQUIRE` and friends
* **This required significant rewrite of decomposition, there might be bugs**
* Simplified internals of matcher related macros
* This provides about ~2% speed up compiling files that are heavy on `REQUIRE_THAT` and friends
### Fixes
* Cleaned out some warnings and static analysis issues
* Suppressed `-Wcomma` warning rarely occuring in templated test cases (#2543)
* Constified implementation details in `INFO` (#2564)
* Made `MatcherGenericBase` copy constructor const (#2566)
* Fixed serialization of test filters so the output roundtrips
* This means that e.g. `./tests/SelfTest "aaa bbb", [approx]` outputs `Filters: "aaa bbb",[approx]`
### Miscellaneous
* Catch2's build no longer leaks `-ffile-prefix-map` setting to dependees (#2533)
## 3.1.1
### Improvements
* Added `Catch::getSeed` function that user code can call to retrieve current rng-seed
* Better detection of compiler support for `-ffile-prefix-map` (#2517)
* Catch2's shared libraries now have `SOVERSION` set (#2516)
* `catch2/catch_all.hpp` convenience header no longer transitively includes `windows.h` (#2432, #2526)
### Fixes
* Fixed compilation on Universal Windows Platform
* Fixed compilation on VxWorks (#2515)
* Fixed compilation on Cygwin (#2540)
* Remove unused variable in reporter registration (#2538)
* Fixed some symbol visibility issues with dynamic library on Windows (#2527)
* Suppressed `-Wuseless-cast` warnings in `REQUIRE_THROWS*` macros (#2520, #2521)
* This was triggered when the potentially throwing expression evaluates to `void`
* Fixed "warning: storage class is not first" with `nvc++` (#2533)
* Fixed handling of `DL_PATHS` argument to `catch_discover_tests` on MacOS (#2483)
* Suppressed `*-avoid-c-arrays` clang-tidy warning in `TEMPLATE_TEST_CASE` (#2095, #2536)
### Miscellaneous
* Fixed CMake install step for Catch2 build as dynamic library (#2485)
* Raised minimum CMake version to 3.10 (#2523)
* Expect the minimum CMake version to increase once more in next few releases.
* Whole bunch of doc updates and fixes
* #1444, #2497, #2547, #2549, and more
* Added support for building Catch2 with Meson (#2530, #2539)
## 3.1.0
### Improvements
* Improved suppression of `-Wparentheses` for older GCCs
* Turns out that even GCC 9 does not properly handle `_Pragma`s in the C++ frontend.
* Added type constraints onto `random` generator (#2433)
* These constraints copy what the standard says for the underlying `std::uniform_int_distribution`
* Suppressed -Wunused-variable from nvcc (#2306, #2427)
* Suppressed -Wunused-variable from MinGW (#2132)
* Added All/Any/NoneTrue range matchers (#2319)
* These check that all/any/none of boolean values in a range are true.
* The JUnit reporter now normalizes classnames from C++ namespaces to Java-like namespaces (#2468)
* This provides better support for other JUnit based tools.
* The Bazel support now understands `BAZEL_TEST` environment variable (#2459)
* The `CATCH_CONFIG_BAZEL_SUPPORT` configuration option is also still supported.
* Returned support for compiling Catch2 with GCC 5 (#2448)
* This required removing inherited constructors from Catch2's internals.
* I recommend updating to a newer GCC anyway.
* `catch_discover_tests` now has a new options for setting library load path(s) when running the Catch2 binary (#2467)
### Fixes
* Fixed crash when listing listeners without any registered listeners (#2442)
* Fixed nvcc compilation error in constructor benchmarking helper (#2477)
* Catch2's CMakeList supports pre-3.12 CMake again (#2428)
* The gain from requiring CMake 3.12 was very minor, but y'all should really update to newer CMake
### Miscellaneous
* Fixed SelfTest build on MinGW (#2447)
* The in-repo conan recipe exports the CMake helper (#2460)
* Added experimental CMake script to showcase using test case sharding together with CTest
* Compared to `catch_discover_tests`, it supports very limited number of options and customization
* Added documentation page on best practices when running Catch2 tests
* Catch2 can be built as a dynamic library (#2397, #2398)
* Note that Catch2 does not have visibility annotations, and you are responsible for ensuring correct visibility built into the resulting library.
## 3.0.1
**Catch2 now uses statically compiled library as its distribution model.
This also means that to get all of Catch2's functionality in a test file,
you have to include multiple headers.**
You probably want to look into the [migration docs](migrate-v2-to-v3.md#top),
which were written to help people coming from v2.x.x versions to the
v3 releases.
### FAQ
* Why is Catch2 moving to separate headers?
* The short answer is future extensibility and scalability. The long answer is complex and can be found on my blog, but at the most basic level, it is that providing single-header distribution is at odds with providing variety of useful features. When Catch2 was distributed in a single header, adding a new Matcher would cause overhead for everyone, but was useful only to a subset of users. This meant that the barrier to entry for new Matchers/Generators/etc is high in single header model, but much smaller in the new model.
* Will Catch2 again distribute single-header version in the future?
* No. But we do provide sqlite-style amalgamated distribution option. This means that you can download just 1 .cpp file and 1 header and place them next to your own sources. However, doing this has downsides similar to using the `catch_all.hpp` header.
* Why the big breaking change caused by replacing `catch.hpp` with `catch_all.hpp`?
* The convenience header `catch_all.hpp` exists for two reasons. One of them is to provide a way for quick migration from Catch2, the second one is to provide a simple way to test things with Catch2. Using it for migration has one drawback in that it is **big**. This means that including it _will_ cause significant compile time drag, and so using it to migrate should be a conscious decision by the user, not something they can just stumble into unknowingly.
### (Potentially) Breaking changes
* **Catch2 now uses statically compiled library as its distribution model**
* **Including `catch.hpp` no longer works**
* **Catch2 now uses C++14 as the minimum support language version**
* `ANON_TEST_CASE` has been removed, use `TEST_CASE` with no arguments instead (#1220)
* `--list*` commands no longer have non-zero return code (#1410)
* `--list-test-names-only` has been removed (#1190)
* You should use verbosity-modifiers for `--list-tests` instead
* `--list*` commands are now piped through the reporters
* The top-level reporter interface provides default implementation that works just as the old one
* XmlReporter outputs a machine-parseable XML
* `TEST_CASE` description support has been removed
* If the second argument has text outside tags, the text will be ignored.
* Hidden test cases are no longer included just because they don't match an exclusion tag
* Previously, a `TEST_CASE("A", "[.foo]")` would be included by asking for `~[bar]`.
* `PredicateMatcher` is no longer type erased.
* This means that the type of the provided predicate is part of the `PredicateMatcher`'s type
* `SectionInfo` no longer contains section description as a member (#1319)
* You can still write `SECTION("ShortName", "Long and wordy description")`, but the description is thrown away
* The description type now must be a `const char*` or be implicitly convertible to it
* The `[!hide]` tag has been removed.
* Use `[.]` or `[.foo]` instead.
* Lvalues of composed matchers cannot be composed further
* Uses of `REGISTER_TEST_CASE` macro need to be followed by a semicolon
* This does not change `TEST_CASE` and friends in any way
* `IStreamingReporter::IsMulti` member function was removed
* This is _very_ unlikely to actually affect anyone, as it was default-implemented in the interface, and only used internally
* Various classes not designed for user-extension have been made final
* `ListeningReporter` is now `final`
* Concrete Matchers (e.g. `UnorderedEquals` vector matcher) are now `final`
* All Generators are now `final`
* Matcher namespacing has been redone
* Matcher types are no longer in deeply nested namespaces
* Matcher factory functions are no longer brought into `Catch` namespace
* This means that all public-facing matcher-related functionality is now in `Catch::Matchers` namespace
* Defining `CATCH_CONFIG_MAIN` will no longer create main in that TU.
* Link with `libCatch2Main.a`, or the proper CMake/pkg-config target
* If you want to write custom main, include `catch2/catch_session.hpp`
* `CATCH_CONFIG_EXTERNAL_INTERFACES` has been removed.
* You should instead include the appropriate headers as needed.
* `CATCH_CONFIG_IMPL` has been removed.
* The implementation is now compiled into a static library.
* Event Listener interface has changed
* `TestEventListenerBase` was renamed to `EventListenerBase`
* `EventListenerBase` now directly derives from `IStreamingReporter`, instead of deriving from `StreamingReporterBase`
* `GENERATE` decays its arguments (#2012, #2040)
* This means that `str` in `auto str = GENERATE("aa", "bb", "cc");` is inferred to `char const*` rather than `const char[2]`.
* `--list-*` flags write their output to file specified by the `-o` flag
* Many changes to reporter interfaces
* With the exception of the XmlReporter, the outputs of first party reporters should remain the same
* New pair of events were added
* One obsolete event was removed
* The base class has been renamed
* The built-in reporter class hierarchy has been redone
* Catch2 generates a random seed if one hasn't been specified by the user
* The short flag for `--list-tests`, `-l`, has been removed.
* This is not a commonly used flag and does not need to use up valuable single-letter space.
* The short flag for `--list-tags`, `-t`, has been removed.
* This is not a commonly used flag and does not need to use up valuable single-letter space.
* The `--colour` option has been replaced with `--colour-mode` option
### Improvements
* Matchers have been extended with the ability to use different signatures of `match` (#1307, #1553, #1554, #1843)
* This includes having templated `match` member function
* See the [rewritten Matchers documentation](matchers.md#top) for details
* Catch2 currently provides _some_ generic matchers, but there should be more before final release of v3
* `IsEmpty`, `SizeIs` which check that the range has specific properties
* `Contains`, which checks whether a range contains a specific element
* `AllMatch`, `AnyMatch`, `NoneMatch` range matchers, which apply matchers over a range of elements
* Significant compilation time improvements
* including `catch_test_macros.hpp` is 80% cheaper than including `catch.hpp`
* Some runtime performance optimizations
* In all tested cases the v3 branch was faster, so the table below shows the speedup of v3 to v2 at the same task
<a id="v3-runtime-optimization-table"></a>

* POSIX platforms use `gmtime_r`, rather than `gmtime` when constructing a date string (#2008, #2165)
* `--list-*` flags write their output to file specified by the `-o` flag (#2061, #2163)
* `Approx::operator()` is now properly `const`
* Catch2's internal helper variables no longer use reserved identifiers (#578)
* `--rng-seed` now accepts string `"random-device"` to generate random seed using `std::random_device`
* Catch2 now supports test sharding (#2257)
* You can ask for the tests to be split into N groups and only run one of them.
* This greatly simplifies parallelization of tests in a binary through external runner.
* The embedded CLI parser now supports repeatedly callable lambdas
* A lambda-based option parser can opt into being repeatedly specifiable.
* Added `STATIC_CHECK` macro, similar to `STATIC_REQUIRE` (#2318)
* When deferred tu runtime, it behaves like `CHECK`, and not like `REQUIRE`.
* You can have multiple tests with the same name, as long as other parts of the test identity differ (#1915, #1999, #2175)
* Test identity includes test's name, test's tags and and test's class name if applicable.
* Added new warning, `UnmatchedTestSpec`, to error on test specs with no matching tests
* The `-w`, `--warn` warning flags can now be provided multiple times to enable multiple warnings
* The case-insensitive handling of tags is now more reliable and takes up less memory
* Test case and assertion counting can no longer reasonably overflow on 32 bit systems
* The count is now kept in `uint64_t` on all platforms, instead of using `size_t` type.
* The `-o`, `--out` output destination specifiers recognize `-` as stdout
* You have to provide it as `--out=-` to avoid CLI error about missing option
* The new reporter specification also recognizes `-` as stdout
* Multiple reporters can now run at the same time and write to different files (#1712, #2183)
* To support this, the `-r`, `--reporter` flag now also accepts optional output destination
* For full overview of the semantics of using multiple reporters, look into the reporter documentation
* To enable the new syntax, reporter names can no longer contain `::`.
* Console colour support has been rewritten and significantly improved
* The colour implementation based on ANSI colour codes is always available
* Colour implementations respect their associated stream
* previously e.g. Win32 impl would change console colour even if Catch2 was writing to a file
* The colour API is resilient against changing evaluation order of expressions
* The associated CLI flag and compile-time configuration options have changed
* For details see the docs for command-line and compile-time Catch2 configuration
* Added a support for Bazel integration with `XML_OUTPUT_FILE` env var (#2399)
* This has to be enabled during compilation.
* Added `--skip-benchmarks` flag to run tests without any `BENCHMARK`s (#2392, #2408)
* Added option to list all listeners in the binary via `--list-listeners`
### Fixes
* The `INFO` macro no longer contains superfluous semicolon (#1456)
* The `--list*` family of command line flags now return 0 on success (#1410, #1146)
* Various ways of failing a benchmark are now counted and reporter properly
* The ULP matcher now handles comparing numbers with different signs properly (#2152)
* Universal ADL-found operators should no longer break decomposition (#2121)
* Reporter selection is properly case-insensitive
* Previously it forced lower cased name, which would fail for reporters with upper case characters in name
* The cumulative reporter base stores benchmark results alongside assertion results
* Catch2's SE handling should no longer interferes with ASan on Windows (#2334)
* Fixed Windows console colour handling for tests that redirect stdout (#2345)
* Fixed issue with the `random` generators returning the same value over and over again
### Other changes
* `CATCH_CONFIG_DISABLE_MATCHERS` no longer exists.
* If you do not want to use Matchers in a TU, do not include their header.
* `CATCH_CONFIG_ENABLE_CHRONO_STRINGMAKER` no longer exists.
* `StringMaker` specializations for `<chrono>` are always provided
* Catch2's CMake now provides 2 targets, `Catch2` and `Catch2WithMain`.
* `Catch2` is the statically compiled implementation by itself
* `Catch2WithMain` also links in the default main
* Catch2's pkg-config integration also provides 2 packages
* `catch2` is the statically compiled implementation by itself
* `catch2-with-main` also links in the default main
* Passing invalid test specifications passed to Catch2 are now reported before tests are run, and are a hard error.
* Running 0 tests (e.g. due to empty binary, or test spec not matching anything) returns non-0 exit code
* Flag `--allow-running-no-tests` overrides this behaviour.
* `NoTests` warning has been removed because it is fully subsumed by this change.
* Catch2's compile-time configuration options (`CATCH_CONFIG_FOO`) can be set through CMake options of the same name
* They use the same semantics as C++ defines, including the `CATCH_CONFIG_NO_FOO` overrides,
* `-DCATCH_CONFIG_DEFAULT_REPORTER=compact` changes default reporter to "compact"
* `-DCATCH_CONFIG_NO_ANDROID_LOGWRITE=ON` forces android logwrite to off
* `-DCATCH_CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGWRITE=OFF` does nothing (the define will not exist)
## 2.13.7
### Fixes
* Added missing `<iterator>` include in benchmarking. (#2231)
* Fixed noexcept build with benchmarking enabled (#2235)
* Fixed build for compilers with C++17 support but without C++17 library support (#2195)
* JUnit only uses 3 decimal places when reporting durations (#2221)
* `!mayfail` tagged tests are now marked as `skipped` in JUnit reporter output (#2116)
## 2.13.6
### Fixes
* Disabling all signal handlers no longer breaks compilation (#2212, #2213)
### Miscellaneous
* `catch_discover_tests` should handle escaped semicolon (`;`) better (#2214, #2215)
## 2.13.5
### Improvements
* Detection of MAC and IPHONE platforms has been improved (#2140, #2157)
* Added workaround for bug in XLC 16.1.0.1 (#2155)
* Add detection for LCC when it is masquerading as GCC (#2199)
* Modified posix signal handling so it supports newer libcs (#2178)
* `MINSIGSTKSZ` was no longer usable in constexpr context.
### Fixes
* Fixed compilation of benchmarking when `min` and `max` macros are defined (#2159)
* Including `windows.h` without `NOMINMAX` remains a really bad idea, don't do it
### Miscellaneous
* The check whether Catch2 is being built as a subproject is now more reliable (#2202, #2204)
* The problem was that if the variable name used internally was defined the project including Catch2 as subproject, it would not be properly overwritten for Catch2's CMake.
## 2.13.4
### Improvements
* Improved the hashing algorithm used for shuffling test cases (#2070)
* `TEST_CASE`s that differ only in the last character should be properly shuffled
* Note that this means that v2.13.4 gives you a different order of test cases than 2.13.3, even given the same seed.
### Miscellaneous
* Deprecated `ParseAndAddCatchTests` CMake integration (#2092)
* It is impossible to implement it properly for all the different test case variants Catch2 provides, and there are better options provided.
* Use `catch_discover_tests` instead, which uses runtime information about available tests.
* Fixed bug in `catch_discover_tests` that would cause it to fail when used in specific project structures (#2119)
* Added Bazel build file
* Added an experimental static library target to CMake
## 2.13.3
### Fixes

* Various documentation fixes and improvements (#2022, #2028, #2034)
## 2.13.1
### Improvements
* `ParseAndAddCatchTests` handles CMake v3.18.0 correctly (#1984)
* Improved autodetection of `std::byte` (#1992)
* Simplified implementation of templated test cases (#2007)
* This should have a tiny positive effect on its compilation throughput
### Fixes
* Automatic stringification of ranges handles sentinel ranges properly (#2004)
## 2.13.0
### Improvements
* `GENERATE` can now follow a `SECTION` at the same level of nesting (#1938)
* The `SECTION`(s) before the `GENERATE` will not be run multiple times, the following ones will.
* Added `-D`/`--min-duration` command line flag (#1910)
* If a test takes longer to finish than the provided value, its name and duration will be printed.
* This flag is overriden by setting `-d`/`--duration`.
### Fixes
* `TAPReporter` no longer skips successful assertions (#1983)
## 2.12.4
### Improvements
* Added support for MacOS on ARM (#1971)
## 2.12.3
### Fixes
* `GENERATE` nested in a for loop no longer creates multiple generators (#1913)
* Fixed copy paste error breaking `TEMPLATE_TEST_CASE_SIG` for 6 or more arguments (#1954)
* Fixed potential UB when handling non-ASCII characters in CLI args (#1943)
### Improvements
* There can be multiple calls to `GENERATE` on a single line
* Improved `fno-except` support for platforms that do not provide shims for exception-related std functions (#1950)
* E.g. the Green Hills C++ compiler
* XmlReporter now also reports test-case-level statistics (#1958)

* Very strictly speaking this might be a breaking change, but it should match user expectations better
* The output of benchmarking through the Console reporter when `--benchmark-no-analysis` is set is now much simpler (#1768)
* Added a matcher that can be used for checking an exceptions message (#1649, #1728)

## 2.9.0
### Improvements
* The experimental benchmarking support has been replaced by integrating Nonius code (#1616)
* This provides a much more featurefull micro-benchmarking support.
* Due to the compilation cost, it is disabled by default. See the documentation for details.
* As far as backwards compatibility is concerned, this feature is still considered experimental in that we might change the interface based on user feedback.
* `WithinULP` matcher now shows the acceptable range (#1581)
* Template test cases now support type lists (#1627)
## 2.8.0

### Fixes
* All calls to C stdlib functions are now `std::` qualified (#1541)
* Code brought in from Clara was also updated.
* Running tests will no longer open the specified output file twice (#1545)

subsequently ignored (#1391, #1392)
## 2.4.0
**This release brings two new experimental features, generator support
and a `-fno-exceptions` support. Being experimental means that they
will not be subject to the usual stability guarantees provided by semver.**
### Improvements
* Various small runtime performance improvements
* `CAPTURE` macro is now variadic
* Added `AND_GIVEN` macro (#1360)
* Added experimental support for data generators

* This means that installing Catch from 32-bit machine and copying it to 64-bit one works
* This fixes conan installation of Catch
## 2.3.0
**This release changes the include paths provided by our CMake and
pkg-config integration. The proper include path for the single-header
when using one of the above is now `<catch2/catch.hpp>`. This change
also necessitated changes to paths inside the repository, so that the
single-header version is now at `single_include/catch2/catch.hpp`, rather
than `single_include/catch.hpp`.**
### Fixes
* Fixed Objective-C++ build
* `-Wunused-variable` suppression no longer leaks from Catch's header under Clang
* Implementation of the experimental new output capture can now be disabled (#1335)
* This allows building Catch2 on platforms that do not provide things like `dup` or `tmpfile`.
* The JUnit and XML reporters will no longer skip over successful tests when running without `-s` (#1264, #1267, #1310)
* See improvements for more details
### Improvements
* pkg-config and CMake integration has been rewritten
* If you use them, the new include path is `#include <catch2/catch.hpp>`
* CMake installation now also installs scripts from `contrib/`
* For details see the [new documentation](cmake-integration.md#top)
* Reporters now have a new customization point, `ReporterPreferences::shouldReportAllAssertions`
* When this is set to `false` and the tests are run without `-s`, passing assertions are not sent to the reporter.
* Defaults to `false`.
* Added `DYNAMIC_SECTION`, a section variant that constructs its name using stream
* This means that you can do `DYNAMIC_SECTION("For X := " << x)`.
## 2.2.3
**To fix some of the bugs, some behavior had to change in potentially breaking manner.**
**This means that even though this is a patch release, it might not be a drop-in replacement.**
### Fixes
* Listeners are now called before reporter
* This was always documented to be the case, now it actually works that way
* Catch's commandline will no longer accept multiple reporters
* This was done because multiple reporters never worked properly and broke things in non-obvious ways
* **This has potential to be a breaking change**
* MinGW is now detected as Windows platform w/o SEH support (#1257)
* This means that Catch2 no longer tries to use POSIX signal handling when compiled with MinGW
* Fixed
