Change Log¶

Version 3.0.0¶

Remove class based testing module.

After using this library for a while, it has become apparent that the class-based testing isn’t useful. It also is rather un-pythonic to assert structural type information. If you are using this, then feel free to copy and paste the code from the previous version.
Remove top-level exports from package __init__.py.

If you were referencing the test case as fluenttest.TestCase, I apologize. Removing the top level import statements makes it possible to reach into the version information without loading the package and its dependencies.
Switch to Python unittest naming conventions.

Using setup_class and teardown_class causes problems if you run tests with unittest.main. Not to mention that the Standard Library uses setUpClass and tearDownClass regardless of how un-pythonic the names are.

Correct a packaging version defect.

Setup.py cannot safely retrieve the version from the __version__ attribute of the package since the import requires mock to be present. The immediate hot-fix is to duplicate the version number until I can come up with a cleaner solution.

Remove fluenttest.TestCase.patches attribute.

The patches attribute was just a little too magical for my tastes and it wasn’t really necessary. Removing this attribute also removed the patch_name parameter to patch. The latter change actually simplifies things quite a bit since we no longer have to derive safe attribute names.
Add fluenttest.TestCase.destroy()
Switch to semantic versioning
Expose library version with __version__ attribute
Add Makefile to simplify development process
Remove usage of tox
