0.9.0

- More unit tests and better test coverage. Numerous bugfixes deriving from
  same.
- Make --exe option do what it says, and turn it on by default on
  Windows. Add --noexe option so windows users can turn if off.Thanks
  richard@artsalliancemedia.com for the bug reports.  
- Handle a working directory that happens to be in the middle of a package
  more gracefully. Thanks Max Ischenko for the bug report and test case.
- Fix bugs in test name comparison when a test module is specified whose name
  overlaps that of a non-test module. Thanks Max Ischenko for the bug report
  and test case.
- Fix warning spam when a non-existent test file is requested on the command
  line. Thanks Max Ischenko for the bug report.

0.9.0b2

- Allow --debug to set any logger to DEBUG. Thanks to casbon at gmail.com for
  the patch. 
- Fix doctest help, which was missing notes about the environment variables
  that it accepts. Thanks to Kumar McMillan for the patch.
- Restore sys.stdout after run() in nose.core. Thanks to Titus Brown for the
  bug report. 
- Correct handling of trailing comma in attrib plugin args. Thanks Titus Brown
  for the patch.

0.9.0b1

- Fix bug in handling of OR conditions in attrib plugin. Thanks to Titus
  Brown for the bug report.
- Fix bug in nose.importer that would cause an attribute error when a local
  module shadowed a builtin, or other object in sys.modules, without a
  __file__ attribute. Thanks to casbon at gmail.com for the bug report.
- Fix bug in nose.tools decorators that would cause decorated tests to appear
  with incorrect names in result output.   

0.9.0a2

- In TestLoader, use inspect's isfunction() and ismethod() to filter functions
  and methods, instead of callable(). Thanks to Kumar McMillan for reporting
  the bug.
- Fix doctest plugin: return an empty iterable when no tests are found in a
  directory instead of None. Thanks to Kumar McMillan for the bug report and
  patch.
- Ignore executable python modules, unless run with --exe file. This is a
  partial defense against nose causing trouble by loading python modules that
  are not import-safe. The full defense: don't write modules that aren't
  import safe!
- Catch and warn about errors on plugin load instead of dying.
- Renamed builtin profile module from nose.plugins.profile to
  nose.plugins.prof to avoid shadowing stdlib profile.py module.

0.9.0a1

- Add support for plugins, with hooks for selecting, loading and reporting on
  tests. Doctest and coverage are now plugins.
- Add builtin plugins for profiling with hotshot, selecting tests by
  attribute (contributed by Mika Eloranta), and warning of missed tests
  specified on command line. 
- Change command line test selection syntax to match unittest. Thanks to Titus
  Brown for the suggestion.
- Option to drop into pdb on error or failure.
- Option to stop running on first error or failure. Thanks to Kevin Dangoor
  for the suggestion.
- Support for doctests in files other than python modules (python 2.4 only)
- Reimplement base test selection as single self-contained class.
- Reimplement test loading as unittest-compatible TestLoader class.
- Remove all monkeypatching.
- Reimplement output capture and assert introspection support in
  unittest-compatible Result class.
- Better support for multiline constructions in assert introspection.
- More context output with assert introspections.
- Refactor setuptools test command support to use proxied result, which
  enables output capture and assert introspection support without
  monkeypatching. Thanks to Philip J. Eby for the suggestion and skeleton
  implementation.
- Add support for generators in test classes. Thanks to Jay Parlar for the
  suggestion and patch.
- Add nose.tools package with some helpful test-composition functions and
  decorators, including @raises, contributed by Scot Doyle.
- Reimplement nose.main (TestProgram) to have unittest-compatible signature.
- All-new import path handling. You can even turn it off! (If you don't,
  nose will ensure that all directories from which it imports anything are on
  sys.path before the import.)
- Logging package used for verbose logging.
- Support for skipped and deprecated tests.
- Configuration is no longer global.

0.8.7

- Add support for py.test-style test generators. Thanks to Jay Parlar for
  the suggestion.
- Fix bug in doctest discovery. Thanks to Richard Cooper for the bug report.
- Fix bug in output capture being appended to later exceptions. Thanks to
  Titus Brown for the patch that uncovered the bug.
- Fix bug(?) in Exception patch that caused masked hasattr/__getattr__ loops
  to either become actual infinite loops, or at least take so long to finally
  error out that they might as well be infinite.
- Add -m option to restrict test running to only tests in a particular package
  or module. Like the -f option, -m does not restrict test *loading*, only
  test *execution*.
- When loading and running a test module, ensure that the module's path is in
  sys.path for the duration of the run, not just while importing the module.
- Add id() method to all callable test classes, for greater unittest
  compatibility.
  
0.8.6

- Fix bug with coverage output when sys.modules contains entries without
  __file__ attributes
- Added -p (--cover-packages) switch that may be used to restrict coverage
  report to modules in the indicated package(s)

0.8.5

- Output capture and verbose assertion errors now work when run like
  'python setup.py test', as advertised.
- Code coverage improvements: now coverage will be output for all modules
  imported by any means that were not in sys.modules at the start of the test
  run. By default, test modules will be excluded from the coverage report, but
  you can include them with the -t (--cover-tests) option.

0.8.4

- Fix bugs in handling of setup/teardown fixtures that could cause TypeError
  exceptions in fixtures to be silently ignored, or multiple fixtures of the
  same type to run. Thanks to Titus Brown for the bug report.

0.8.3

- Add -V (--version) switch to nosetests
- Fix bug where sys.path would not be set up correctly when running some
  tests, producing spurious import errors (Thanks to Titus Brown and Mike
  Thomson for the bug reports)
- For test classses not derived from unittest.TestCase, output (module.Class)
  "doc string" as test description, when method doc string is available
  (Thanks to David Keeney for the suggestion, even if this isn't quite what he
  meant)

0.8.2

- Revise import to bypass sys.path and manipulate sys.modules more
  intelligently, ensuring that the test module we think we are loading is the
  module we actually load, and that modules loaded by other imports are not
  reloaded without cause
- Allow test directories inside of packages. Formerly directories matching
  testMatch but lacking an __init__.py would cause an ImportError when located
  inside of packages
- Fix bugs in different handling of -f switch in combination with -w and -o

0.8.1

- Fix bug in main() that resulted in incorrect exit status for nosetests
  script when tests fail
- Add missing test files to MANIFEST.in
- Miscellaneous pylint cleanups

0.8

- Add doctest support
- Add optional code coverage support, using Ned Batchelder's coverage.py;
  activate with --coverage switch or NOSE_COVERAGE environment variable
- More informative error message on import error 
- Fix bug where module setup could be called twice and teardown skipped
  for certain setup method names.
- main() returns success value, does not exit. run_exit() added to support
  old behavior; nosetests script now calls nose.run_exit()
 
0.7.5

- Fix bus error on exit
- Discover tests inside of non-TestCase classes that match testMatch
- Reorganize selftest: now selftest tests the output of a full nose run
- Add test_with_setup.py contributed by Kumar McMillan
 
0.7.2

- Refactor and correct bugs in discovery and test loading
- Reorganize and expand documentation
- Add -f (run this test file only) switch

0.7.1

- Bugfix release: test files in root of working directory were not being
  stripped of file extension before import.
  
0.7

- Change license to LGPL
- Major rework of output capture and assert introspection
- Improve test discovery: now finds tests in packages
- Replace -n switch ('no cwd') with -w switch ('look here')

0.6

- New nosetests script
- Allow specification of names on command line that are loadable but not
  directly loadable as modules (eg nosetests -o path/to/tests.py)
- Add optional py.test-like assert introspection. Thanks to Kevin Dangoor
  for the suggestion.
- Improvements to selftest
 
0.5.1

- Increased compatibility with python 2.3 (and maybe earlier)
- Increased compatibility with tests written for py.test: now calls
  module.setup_module(module) if module.setup_module() fails
