Version 0.11.1

  • The 0.11.0 metadata claimed to support python 3.2. This has been fixed.

Version 0.11.0

  • Nearly this entire release is courtesy of arcivanov. Thanks!!!
  • Introduced reactor.execute_task_shortest_plan API.
  • Fixed an issue where a forked coverage measurement would not properly failed the build.
  • unit test and coverage measurement are now library functions in an API sense.
  • pyb install now works and acts like setup.py install (distutils plugin).
  • PyBuilder can now be installed with pip install git://github.com/pybuilder/pybuilder.git@<branch>
  • Forked processes (like coverage measurements) now correctly report back their errors.
  • Huge improvements to coverage accuracy when building PyBuilder itself / libraries which use part of their own code in order to build, e.G. if you run library code in build.py.
  • Branch coverage and html reports have been added to the python.coverage plugin.
  • The python.coverage process will now always fork when measuring coverage, disregarding the coverage_fork setting. The coverage_fork setting is now deprecated.
  • The python.unittest plugin will now always fork.
  • Module reloading has been removed. It is no longer useful since coverage and unit tests run in separate forks.
  • unittest_runner must now accept a positional argument which is a filelike object. Writing to this filelike object is preferred rather than using stdout/stderr.
  • Introduced teardown actions. Also action ordering is now stable/guaranteed.
  • Introduced optional task dependencies (as opposed to required task dependencies). With the command line switch -x task_name a set of optional tasks can be skipped (repeat if required). With the command line switch --force-exclude this can be expanded to exclude required dependencies as well (but might lead to build consistency problems).
  • Python 3.2 support has been dropped, please upgrade to 3.3 or 3.4
  • The python.unittest plugin now generates nUnit-style XML reports by default (these can be parsed by jenkins).
