GHC 7.0 and 7.2 strictly follows Haskell Report 2010 and require `Show` as a superclass of `Num` https://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/haskellch6.html#x13-1350006.4 http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.3.0.0/docs/Prelude.html#t:Num http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.4.0.0/docs/Prelude.html#t:Num
Fixes compatibility with GHC 7.0 (bundled with `containers-0.4.0.0`) and GHC 7.2 (bundled with `containers-0.4.1.0`) Changelog: https://github.com/haskell/containers/blob/master/containers/changelog.md#0421--feb-2012

Version 1.4.1 * Deduplicate command line options when there is more than one TestReporter. Expose the function that does that, uniqueOptionDescriptions. Version 1.4.0.3 * Fix CPP warning/error macro expansion producing 'defined' has undefined behavior Version 1.4.0.2 * Automatically disable the dependency on the clock package when compiled by ghcjs. Version 1.4.0.1 * The only point of this release is to introduce compatibility with GHCs back to 7.0 (see UnkindPartition/tasty#287). Note, however, that these changes are not merged to the master branch, and the future releases will only support the GHC/base versions from the last 5 years, as per our usual policy. To test with even older GHCs, you'll have to use this particular version of tasty (or have the constraint solver pick it for you when testing with older GHCs). The source of this release is in the support-old-ghcs branch of the tasty repository. Version 1.4 * Change the TreeFold data type to give all functions access to OptionSet * Fix a bug where a looping failure message escaped the time out set for the test * Fix a bug where pattern changes inside the TestTree weren't respected Version 1.3.1 * Add an ability for a test provider to print colorful/formatted output Version 1.3 * IsOption has a new method showDefaultValue for customizing how defaultValues are rendered in the --help output. * Drop support for GHCs older than 5 years * Do not install handlers for the signals that dump core * Export the AnsiTricks type/option * In addition to a Parser, optionParser and suiteOptionParser now return a [String] representing warning messages: - A warning is emitted if an IsOption instance defines multiple options in the implementation of optionCLParser. - An warning is emitted if an IsOption instance's optionCLParser implementation assigns a default value (e.g., with Options.Applicative.value), as this interferes with tasty's ability to read environment variable arguments.

This restores compatibility of
tasty,tasty-hunitandtasty-quickcheckwith old GHCs, back to GHC 7.0.My applications do not require
tasty-smallcheck, so I left it as is. If desired, it could be made compatible with GHC 7.0 as well, see Bodigrim@003b2a3, but it involves pretty significant rewrite.I also kept Travis config as is, but if you wish to test backward compatibility regularly, I can submit additional jobs. Here is a witness that the libraries actually build on GHC 7.0: https://travis-ci.com/github/Bodigrim/tasty/builds/207660317
