Hypothesis

------------------

Codename: Hygienic macros or bust

* You can now name an argument to given 'f' and it won't break (:issue:`38`)
* strategy_test_suite is now named strategy_test_suite as the documentation claims and not in fact strategy_test_suitee
* Settings objects can now be used as a context manager to temporarily override the default values inside their context.

------------------

Codename: Point releases go faster

* Better string generation by parametrizing by a limited alphabet
* Faster string simplification - previously if simplifying a string with high range unicode characters it would try every unicode character smaller than that. This was pretty pointless. Now it stops after it's a short range (it can still reach smaller ones through recursive calls because of other simplifying operations).
* Faster list simplification by first trying a binary chop down the middle
* Simultaneous simplification of identical elements in a list. So if a bug only triggers when you have duplicates but you drew e.g. [-17, -17], this will now simplify to [0, 0].

-------------------

Codename: Starting to look suspiciously real

This is probably the last minor release prior to 1.0. It consists of stability
improvements, a few usability things designed to make Hypothesis easier to try
out, and filing off some final rough edges from the API.

* Significant speed and memory usage improvements
* Add an example() method to strategy objects to give an example of the sort of data that the strategy generates.
* Remove .descriptor attribute of strategies
* Rename descriptor_test_suite to strategy_test_suite
* Rename the few remaining uses of descriptor to specifier (descriptor already has a defined meaning in Python)

---------------------------------------------------------

Codename: I'm sorry, were you using that API?

This is primarily a "simplify all the weird bits of the API" release. As a result there are a lot of breaking changes. If
you just use given with core types then you're probably fine.

In particular:

* Stateful testing has been removed from the API
* The way the database is used has been rendered less useful (sorry). The feature for reassembling values saved from other
tests doesn't currently work. This will probably be brought back in post 1.0.
* SpecificationMapper is no longer a thing. Instead there is an ExtMethod called strategy which you extend to specify how
to convert other types to strategies.
* Settings are now extensible so you can add your own for configuring a strategy
* MappedSearchStrategy no longer needs an unpack method
* Basically all the SearchStrategy internals have changed massively. If you implemented SearchStrategy directly rather than
using MappedSearchStrategy talk to me about fixing it.
* Change to the way extra packages work. You now specify the package. This
must have a load() method. Additionally any modules in the package will be
loaded in under hypothesis.extra

Bug fixes:

* Fix for a bug where calling falsify on a lambda with a non-ascii character
in its body would error.

Hypothesis Extra:

hypothesis-fakefactory\: An extension for using faker data in hypothesis. Depends
on fake-factory.

------------------

Codename: Read all about it.

Core hypothesis:

* Add support back in for pypy and python 3.2
* given functions can now be invoked with some arguments explicitly provided. If all arguments that hypothesis would have provided are passed in then no falsification is run.
* Related to the above, this means that you can now use pytest fixtures and mark.parametrize with Hypothesis without either interfering with the other.
* Breaking change: given no longer works for functions with varargs (varkwargs are fine). This might be added back in at a later date.
* Windows is now fully supported. A limited version (just the tests with none of the extras) of the test suite is run on windows with each commit so it is now a first class citizen of the Hypothesis world.
* Fix a bug for fuzzy equality of equal complex numbers with different reprs (this can happen when one coordinate is zero). This shouldn't affect users - that feature isn't used anywhere public facing.
* Fix generation of floats on windows and 32-bit builds of python. I was using some struct.pack logic that only worked on certain word sizes.
* When a test times out and hasn't produced enough examples this now raises a Timeout subclass of Unfalsifiable.
* Small search spaces are better supported. Previously something like a given(bool, bool) would have failed because it couldn't find enough examples. Hypothesis is now aware of the fact that these are small search spaces and will not error in this case.
* Improvements to parameter search in the case of hard to satisfy assume. Hypothesis will now spend less time exploring parameters that are unlikely to provide anything useful.
* Increase chance of generating "nasty" floats
* Fix a bug that would have caused unicode warnings if you had a sampled_from that was mixing unicode and byte strings.
* Added a standard test suite that you can use to validate a custom strategy you've defined is working correctly.

Hypothesis extra:

First off, introducing Hypothesis extra packages!

These are packages that are separated out from core Hypothesis because they have one or more dependencies. Every
hypothesis-extra package is pinned to a specific point release of Hypothesis and will have some version requirements
on its dependency. They use entry_points so you will usually not need to explicitly import them, just have them installed
on the path.

This release introduces two of them:

hypothesis-datetime:

Does what it says on the tin: Generates datetimes for Hypothesis. Just install the package and datetime support will start
working.

Depends on pytz for timezone support

hypothesis-pytest:

A very rudimentary pytest plugin. All it does right now is hook the display of falsifying examples into pytest reporting.

Depends on pytest.

------------------

Codename: TIL narrow Python builds are a thing

This just fixes the one bug.

* Apparently there is such a thing as a "narrow python build" and OS X ships with these by default
for python 2.7. These are builds where you only have two bytes worth of unicode. As a result,
generating unicode was completely broken on OS X. Fix this by only generating unicode codepoints
in the range supported by the system.
