PSDscResources

2.12.0.0

This module contains the standard DSC resources.
Because PSDscResources overwrites in-box resources, it is only available for WMF 5.1. Many of the resource updates provided here are also included in the xPSDesiredStateConfiguration module which is still compatible with WMF 4 and WMF 5 (though that module is not supported and may be removed in the future).

Minimum PowerShell version

Release Notes

* Ports style fixes that were recently made in xPSDesiredStateConfiguration
on test related files.
* Ports most of the style upgrades from xPSDesiredStateConfiguration that have
been made in files in the DscResources folder.
* Ports fixes for the following issues:
[Issue 505](https://github.com/PowerShell/xPSDesiredStateConfiguration/issues/505)
[Issue 590](https://github.com/PowerShell/xPSDesiredStateConfiguration/issues/590)
Changes to test helper Enter-DscResourceTestEnvironment so that it only
updates DSCResource.Tests when it is longer than 120 minutes since
it was last pulled. This is to improve performance of test execution
and reduce the likelihood of connectivity issues caused by inability to
pull DSCResource.Tests.
* Fixes issue where MsiPackage Integration tests fail if the test HttpListener
fails to start. Moves the test HttpListener objects to dynamically assigned,
higher numbered ports to avoid conflicts with other services, and also checks
to ensure that the ports are available before using them. Adds checks to
ensure that no outstanding HTTP server jobs are running before attempting to
setup a new one. Also adds additional instrumentation to make it easier to
troubleshoot issues with the test HttpListener objects in the future.
