MXUnit 2.1.1 and Eclipse plugin 1.4.3 Released

[Marc Esher]

Greetings all,

  Both the framework and the plugin were updated today. Release notes
are here: http://wiki.mxunit.org/display/default/Release+Notes.

Thanks to Ryan Anklam, Andrea Campolonghi, and Bob Chesley for
framework code enhancements!

Ryan will have a blog post out sometime soon detailing how to use the
new "Ordered Tests" Decorator which he's contributed.

The ability to specify a test order is one of those oft-requested --
and oft-shot-down (by us) -- features. Ryan's got a really good use
case for them, however. I'm not sure if all of you know about this,
but Ryan has created a set of Koans for CF. They aim to teach CFML via
unit tests. In his scenario, he wants the ability -- quite reasonable
-- to run the test methods in the "learning order". His new Ordered
Test decorator provides him -- and anyone else who wants to use it --
this ability.

Cheers,

Marc

Great work Marc, Ryan, Andrea and Bob!

Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Marc! Again, its an honor to have some of my code in MXUnit.
Mark (with a K) I saw your comment about the quick sort, I'll look
into that next time I have some free time. Its tournament time with
my coaching right now so this week will be extremely busy.

I just published my post on using ordered tests at
http://blog.bittersweetryan.com/2012/01/using-new-orderedtestdecorator-in.html,
comments are welcome.

No worries. I have some minor tweaks in the wings to promote to mxunit so when doing that, I may wrap it in too.

I literally have too many ideas for OSS at the moment ;o)
