2009-12-01- The ``repoze.bfg.templating`` module has been removed; it had beenChris McDonough
deprecated in 1.1 and hasn't possessed any APIs since before 1.0.

2009-11-28- Unit tests which use ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` for theChris McDonough
purpose of isolating tests from one another may now begin to fail due to lack of isolation between tests. Here's why: In repoze.bfg 1.1 and prior, the registry returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` when no other registry had been pushed on to the threadlocal stack was the ``zope.component.globalregistry.base`` global registry (aka the result of ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager()``). In repoze.bfg 1.2+, however, the registry returned in this situation is the new module-scope ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry`` object. The ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` function clears the ``zope.component.globalregistry.base`` global registry unconditionally. However, it does not know about the ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry`` object, so it does not clear it. If you use the ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` function in the ``setUp`` of test cases in your unit test suite instead of using the (more correct as of 1.1) ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp``, you will need to replace all calls to ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` with a call to ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp``. If replacing all calls to ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` with a call to ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` is infeasible, you can put this bit of code somewhere that is executed exactly **once** (*not* for each test in a test suite; in the `` __init__.py`` of your package would be a reasonable place):: import zope.testing.cleanup from repoze.bfg.testing import setUp zope.testing.cleanup.addCleanUp(setUp) - When there is no "current registry" in the ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.manager`` threadlocal data structure (this is the case when there is no "current request" or we're not in the midst of a ``r.b.testing.setUp``-bounded unit test), the ``.get`` method of the manager returns a data structure containing a *global* registry. In previous releases, this function returned the global Zope "base" registry: the result of ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager``, which is an instance of the ``zope.component.registry.Component`` class. In this release, however, the global registry returns a globally importable instance of the ``repoze.bfg.registry.Registry`` class. This registry instance can always be imported as ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry``. Effectively, this means that when you call ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` when no request or ``setUp`` bounded unit test is in effect, you will always get back the global registry that lives in ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry``. It also means that :mod:`repoze.bfg` APIs that *call* ``get_current_registry`` will use this registry. This change was made because :mod:`repoze.bfg` now expects the registry it uses to have a slightly different API than a bare instance of ``zope.component.registry.Components``.

2009-11-27- Add a section entitled "Test Set Up and Tear Down" to theChris McDonough
unittesting chapter.
2009-11-27- The ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` function now accepts three extraChris McDonough
optional keyword arguments: ``registry``, ``request`` and ``hook_zca``. If the ``registry`` argument is not ``None``, the argument will be treated as the registry that is set as the "current registry" (it will be returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry``) for the duration of the test. If the ``registry`` argument is ``None`` (the default), a new registry is created and used for the duration of the test. The value of the ``request`` argument is used as the "current request" (it will be returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_request``) for the duration of the test; it defaults to ``None``. If ``hook_zca`` is ``True`` (the default), the ``zope.component.getSiteManager`` function will be hooked with a function that returns the value of ``registry`` (or the default-created registry if ``registry`` is ``None``) instead of the registry returned by ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager``, causing the Zope Component Architecture API (``getSiteManager``, ``getAdapter``, ``getUtility``, and so on) to use the registry we're using for testing instead of the global ZCA registry. - The ``repoze.bfg.testing.tearDown`` function now accepts an ``unhook_zca`` argument. If this argument is ``True`` (the default), ``zope.component.getSiteManager.reset()`` will be called, causing the "base" registry to once again start returnining the result of ``zope.component.getSiteManager``. - Remove hook_zca and unhook_zca methods from Configurator.

2009-11-23- The ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` function is now nominallyChris McDonough
deprecated. Its import and usage does not throw a warning, nor will it probably ever disappear. However, using a ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` class is now the preferred way to generate a WSGI application. - The ``run.py`` module in various ``repoze.bfg`` ``paster`` templates now use a ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` class instead of the (now-legacy) ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` function to produce a WSGI application.
