Twisted Core 13.1.0 (2013-06-23)
================================
Features
--------
- trial now has an --exitfirst flag which stops the test run after
the first error or failure. (#1518)
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now supports chain
certificates. (#2061)
- twisted.internet.endpoints now provides ProcessEndpoint, a child
process endpoint. (#4696)
- Factory now has a forProtocol classmethod that constructs an
instance and sets its protocol attribute. (#5016)
- twisted.internet.endpoints.connectProtocol allows connecting to a
client endpoint using only a protocol instance, rather than
requiring a factory. (#5270)
- twisted.trial.unittest.SynchronousTestCase.assertNoResult no longer
swallows the result, if the assertion succeeds. (#6291)
- twisted.python.constants.FlagConstant implements __iter__ so that
it can be iterated upon to find the flags that went into a flag
set, and implements __nonzero__ to test as false when empty.
(#6302)
- assertIs and assertIsNot have now been added to
twisted.trial.unittest.TestCase. (#6350)
- twisted.trial.unittest.TestCase.failureResultOf now takes an
optional expected failure type argument. (#6380)
- The POSIX implementation of
twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorProcess now does not change the
parent process UID or GID in order to run child processes with a
different UID or GID. (#6443)
Bugfixes
--------
- self.transport.resumeProducing() will no longer raise an
AssertionError if called after self.transport.loseConnection()
(#986)
- twisted.protocols.ftp.FTP now supports IFTPShell implementations
which return non-ASCII filenames as unicode strings. (#5411)
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now disables SSLv2 if
SSLv23 is selected, allowing only SSLv3 and TLSv1. (#6337)
- trial dist support now gets sys.path from an environment variable
passed to it. (#6390)
- twisted.test.proto_helpers.StringTransportWithDisconnection now
correctly passes Failure instead of an exception to
connectionLost through loseConnection. (#6521)
Improved Documentation
----------------------
- The Application howto now provides an example of writing a custom
Service. (#5586)
- The -j flag to trial (introduced in 12.3.0) is now documented.
(#5994)
- The SSL howto now covers twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions
instead of the older context factories it replaces. (#6273)
- The Constants HOWTO documents iteration and truth testing of flags,
as well as previously undocumented boolean operations. (#6302)
Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------
- twisted.trial.runner.suiteVisit and PyUnitTestCase as well as
visitor methods, all deprecated since Twisted 8.0, have been
removed. (#3231)
- twisted.python._epoll bindings were removed; the epoll reactor now
uses the stdlib-provided epoll support. (#5847)
- The deprecated LENGTH, DATA, COMMA, and NUMBER NetstringReceiver
parser state attributes in t.protocols.basic are removed now.
(#6321)
- twisted.trial.runner.DryRunVisitor is now deprecated. Trial uses a
different method to handle --dry-run now. (#6333)
- twisted.python.hashlib is now deprecated in favor of hashlib from
stdlib. (#6342)
- twisted.web.server's Session.loopFactory, lifetime parameter of
Session.startCheckingExpiration and Session.checkExpired attributes,
deprecated since Twisted 9.0, have been removed. (#6514)
