| 2 Change history for Coverage.py | |
| 3 ------------------------------ | |
| 4 | |
| 5 | |
| 6 Version 3.0.1, 7 July 2009 | |
| 7 -------------------------- | |
| 8 | |
| 9 - Removed the recursion limit in the tracer function. Previously, code that | |
| 10 ran more than 500 frames deep would crash. | |
| 11 | |
| 12 - Fixed a bizarre problem involving pyexpat, whereby lines following XML parser | |
| 13 invocations could be overlooked. | |
| 14 | |
| 15 - On Python 2.3, coverage.py could mis-measure code with exceptions being | |
| 16 raised. This is now fixed. | |
| 17 | |
| 18 - The coverage.py code itself will now not be measured by coverage.py, and no | |
| 19 coverage modules will be mentioned in the nose --with-cover plugin. | |
| 20 | |
| 21 - When running source files, coverage.py now opens them in universal newline | |
| 22 mode just like Python does. This lets it run Windows files on Mac, for | |
| 23 example. | |
| 24 | |
| 25 | |
| 26 Version 3.0, 13 June 2009 | |
| 27 ------------------------- | |
| 28 | |
| 29 - Fixed the way the Python library was ignored. Too much code was being | |
| 30 excluded the old way. | |
| 31 | |
| 32 - Tabs are now properly converted in HTML reports. Previously indentation was | |
| 33 lost. | |
| 34 | |
| 35 - Nested modules now get a proper flat_rootname. Thanks, Christian Heimes. | |
| 36 | |
| 37 | |
| 38 Version 3.0b3, 16 May 2009 | |
| 39 -------------------------- | |
| 40 | |
| 41 - Added parameters to coverage.__init__ for options that had been set on the | |
| 42 coverage object itself. | |
| 43 | |
| 44 - Added clear_exclude() and get_exclude_list() methods for programmatic | |
| 45 manipulation of the exclude regexes. | |
| 46 | |
| 47 - Added coverage.load() to read previously-saved data from the data file. | |
| 48 | |
| 49 - Improved the finding of code files. For example, .pyc files that have been | |
| 50 installed after compiling are now located correctly. Thanks, Detlev | |
| 51 Offenbach. | |
| 52 | |
| 53 - When using the object api (that is, constructing a coverage() object), data | |
| 54 is no longer saved automatically on process exit. You can re-enable it with | |
| 55 the auto_data=True parameter on the coverage() constructor. The module-level | |
| 56 interface still uses automatic saving. | |
| 57 | |
| 58 | |
| 59 Version 3.0b2, 30 April 2009 | |
| 60 ---------------------------- | |
| 61 | |
| 62 HTML reporting, and continued refactoring. | |
| 63 | |
| 64 - HTML reports and annotation of source files: use the new -b (browser) switch. | |
| 65 Thanks to George Song for code, inspiration and guidance. | |
| 66 | |
| 67 - Code in the Python standard library is not measured by default. If you need | |
| 68 to measure standard library code, use the -L command-line switch during | |
| 69 execution, or the cover_pylib=True argument to the coverage() constructor. | |
| 70 | |
| 71 - Source annotation into a directory (-a -d) behaves differently. The | |
| 72 annotated files are named with their hierarchy flattened so that same-named | |
| 73 files from different directories no longer collide. Also, only files in the | |
| 74 current tree are included. | |
| 75 | |
| 76 - coverage.annotate_file is no longer available. | |
| 77 | |
| 78 - Programs executed with -x now behave more as they should, for example, | |
| 79 __file__ has the correct value. | |
| 80 | |
| 81 - .coverage data files have a new pickle-based format designed for better | |
| 82 extensibility. | |
| 83 | |
| 84 - Removed the undocumented cache_file argument to coverage.usecache(). | |
| 85 | |
| 86 | |
| 87 Version 3.0b1, 7 March 2009 | |
| 88 --------------------------- | |
| 89 | |
| 90 Major overhaul. | |
| 91 | |
| 92 - Coverage is now a package rather than a module. Functionality has been split | |
| 93 into classes. | |
| 94 | |
| 95 - The trace function is implemented in C for speed. Coverage runs are now | |
| 96 much faster. Thanks to David Christian for productive micro-sprints and | |
| 97 other encouragement. | |
| 98 | |
| 99 - Executable lines are identified by reading the line number tables in the | |
| 100 compiled code, removing a great deal of complicated analysis code. | |
| 101 | |
| 102 - Precisely which lines are considered executable has changed in some cases. | |
| 103 Therefore, your coverage stats may also change slightly. | |
| 104 | |
| 105 - The singleton coverage object is only created if the module-level functions | |
| 106 are used. This maintains the old interface while allowing better | |
| 107 programmatic use of Coverage. | |
| 108 | |
| 109 - The minimum supported Python version is 2.3. | |
| 110 | |
| 111 | |
| 112 Version 2.85, 14 September 2008 | |
| 113 ------------------------------- | |
| 114 | |
| 115 - Add support for finding source files in eggs. Don't check for | |
| 116 morf's being instances of ModuleType, instead use duck typing so that | |
| 117 pseudo-modules can participate. Thanks, Imri Goldberg. | |
| 118 | |
| 119 - Use os.realpath as part of the fixing of filenames so that symlinks won't | |
| 120 confuse things. Thanks, Patrick Mezard. | |
| 121 | |
| 122 | |
| 123 Version 2.80, 25 May 2008 | |
| 124 ------------------------- | |
| 125 | |
| 126 - Open files in rU mode to avoid line ending craziness. Thanks, Edward Loper. | |
| 127 | |
| 128 | |
| 129 Version 2.78, 30 September 2007 | |
| 130 ------------------------------- | |
| 131 | |
| 132 - Don't try to predict whether a file is Python source based on the extension. | |
| 133 Extensionless files are often Pythons scripts. Instead, simply parse the file | |
| 134 and catch the syntax errors. Hat tip to Ben Finney. | |
| 135 | |
| 136 | |
| 137 Version 2.77, 29 July 2007 | |
| 138 -------------------------- | |
| 139 | |
| 140 - Better packaging. | |
| 141 | |
| 142 | |
| 143 Version 2.76, 23 July 2007 | |
| 144 -------------------------- | |
| 145 | |
| 146 - Now Python 2.5 is *really* fully supported: the body of the new with | |
| 147 statement is counted as executable. | |
| 148 | |
| 149 | |
| 150 Version 2.75, 22 July 2007 | |
| 151 -------------------------- | |
| 152 | |
| 153 - Python 2.5 now fully supported. The method of dealing with multi-line | |
| 154 statements is now less sensitive to the exact line that Python reports during | |
| 155 execution. Pass statements are handled specially so that their disappearance | |
| 156 during execution won't throw off the measurement. | |
| 157 | |
| 158 | |
| 159 Version 2.7, 21 July 2007 | |
| 160 ------------------------- | |
| 161 | |
| 162 - "#pragma: nocover" is excluded by default. | |
| 163 | |
| 164 - Properly ignore docstrings and other constant expressions that appear in the | |
| 165 middle of a function, a problem reported by Tim Leslie. | |
| 166 | |
| 167 - coverage.erase() shouldn't clobber the exclude regex. Change how parallel | |
| 168 mode is invoked, and fix erase() so that it erases the cache when called | |
| 169 programmatically. | |
| 170 | |
| 171 - In reports, ignore code executed from strings, since we can't do anything | |
| 172 useful with it anyway. | |
| 173 | |
| 174 - Better file handling on Linux, thanks Guillaume Chazarain. | |
| 175 | |
| 176 - Better shell support on Windows, thanks Noel O'Boyle. | |
| 177 | |
| 178 - Python 2.2 support maintained, thanks Catherine Proulx. | |
| 179 | |
| 180 - Minor changes to avoid lint warnings. | |
| 181 | |
| 182 | |
| 183 Version 2.6, 23 August 2006 | |
| 184 --------------------------- | |
| 185 | |
| 186 - Applied Joseph Tate's patch for function decorators. | |
| 187 | |
| 188 - Applied Sigve Tjora and Mark van der Wal's fixes for argument handling. | |
| 189 | |
| 190 - Applied Geoff Bache's parallel mode patch. | |
| 191 | |
| 192 - Refactorings to improve testability. Fixes to command-line logic for parallel | |
| 193 mode and collect. | |
| 194 | |
| 195 | |
| 196 Version 2.5, 4 December 2005 | |
| 197 ---------------------------- | |
| 198 | |
| 199 - Call threading.settrace so that all threads are measured. Thanks Martin | |
| 200 Fuzzey. | |
| 201 | |
| 202 - Add a file argument to report so that reports can be captured to a different | |
| 203 destination. | |
| 204 | |
| 205 - coverage.py can now measure itself. | |
| 206 | |
| 207 - Adapted Greg Rogers' patch for using relative filenames, and sorting and | |
| 208 omitting files to report on. | |
| 209 | |
| 210 | |
| 211 Version 2.2, 31 December 2004 | |
| 212 ----------------------------- | |
| 213 | |
| 214 - Allow for keyword arguments in the module global functions. Thanks, Allen. | |
| 215 | |
| 216 | |
| 217 Version 2.1, 14 December 2004 | |
| 218 ----------------------------- | |
| 219 | |
| 220 - Return 'analysis' to its original behavior and add 'analysis2'. Add a global | |
| 221 for 'annotate', and factor it, adding 'annotate_file'. | |
| 222 | |
| 223 | |
| 224 Version 2.0, 12 December 2004 | |
| 225 ----------------------------- | |
| 226 | |
| 227 Significant code changes. | |
| 228 | |
| 229 - Finding executable statements has been rewritten so that docstrings and | |
| 230 other quirks of Python execution aren't mistakenly identified as missing | |
| 231 lines. | |
| 232 | |
| 233 - Lines can be excluded from consideration, even entire suites of lines. | |
| 234 | |
| 235 - The filesystem cache of covered lines can be disabled programmatically. | |
| 236 | |
| 237 - Modernized the code. | |
| 238 | |
| 239 | |
