Green 2.1.0 — Features, Fixes, & Windows Problems
1 min readOct 19, 2015
Green is a clean, colorful, fast python test runner.
Version 2.1.0 has been released. We have the first notable feature additions since the 2.0.0 overhaul, plus some fixes. We need help if we’re going to keep Python 3.4+ support on windows (see below)!
- Added -u/ — include-patterns argument to pass through a list of include
patterns to coverage. See the help docs for more info. - Fixed a crash during handling a crash in loader code due to incorrect string formatting — contributed by jayvdb
- Green can now be run as a module with `python -m green` syntax — contributed by krisztianfekete, fixes #91
- Fixed the text describing the ordering of the screenshots — reported by robertlagrant
- Removed official Python 3.4+ support on Windows, due to AppVeyor’s aggravating fail-4-times-out-of-5 behavior which I can’t replicate at all on actual Windows virtual machines. If someone wants to help find the problem so we can have consistent builds, I would be happy to restore official Python 3.4+ support on Windows. In practice, everything functions fine on Windows as far as I can tell, but this will drift in the future without builds to let us know what breaks.
