Changes in this release:

Breaking changes:
+ There are a few breaking changes in the generated test code. If you
upgrade to SpecFlow 1.7, you should either
re-generate the tests, or setup your project to use a version for
generating the tests that is compatible with
the runtime you use (see "Using SpecFlow generator from the
project's lib folder" feature).

New features:
+ Using standard Gherkin parser (http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/
gherkin) v2.3.6
+ Using SpecFlow generator from the project's lib folder instead of
SpecFlow installed for IDE integration.
The VS2010 integration can be installed independently from projects
using a different version. The VS2010
integration checks the generator in the following paths:
1. generator path configured in app.config (<generator path="..\lib
\SpecFlow"/>)
2. generator assembly (TechTalk.SpecFlow.Generator.dll) referenced
from the SpecFlow project
3. generator in the same folder as the runtime
(TechTalk.SpecFlow.dll)
4. generator is near to the runtime ("tools" or "..\tools", relative
to the runtime)
5. generator obtained through NuGet ("..\..\tools", relative to the
runtime)
If SpecFlow cannot find the generator or it is older than v1.6.0,
the installed SpecFlow generator is used.
If you use any custom plugins (e.g. unit test generator), this has
to be in the same folder as the generator
currently.
+ Added ToProjection<T>, ToProjectionOfSet<T>,
ToProjectionOfInstance<T> to allow for LINQ-based comparisons. (Vagif
Abilov)
+ Cleaned-up CreateInstance<T> and CreateSet<T> for greater code
maintainability.
+ Cleaned-up CompareToInstance<T> and CompareToSet<T> for greater code
maintainability, and slightly more accurate value comparisons (like
decimals with trailing zeroes).
+ Removed the |Field|Value| requirement for CreateInstance<T> and
CompareToInstance<T>. Any header names can be used, so long as the
first column is the name of the property and the second column is the
value.
+ Can use empty spaces and different casing in the tables used for
comparison (i.e. can use |First name| instead of |FirstName| )
+ Tables used with CreateInstance<T> and CompareToInstance<T> can now
be one-row tables with each field as a column (instead of requiring a
vertical table with "Field/Value" headers)
+ A default function to create a default instance can be passed to
CreateInstance<T> and CreateSet<T>.
+ Syntax coloring support for Visual Studio 2008. Uncheck this option
in the installer if you are using cuke4vs. (by Avram Korets)
+ SharpDevelop 4 (#develop) integration. Enable SharpDevelop 4
integration in the installer and use the SharpDevelop AddIn Manager
to install the integration (select addin file from SpecFlow
installation folder). (by Charles Weld)
+ Support for testing Silverlight asynchronous code. (by Matt Ellis &
Ryan Burnham)
See https://github.com/techtalk/SpecFlow/wiki/Testing-Silverlight-Asynchronous-Code
for details.
+ TableRow implements IDictionary<string, string>
+ Add table row from a (total or partially filled) dictionary
+ Raname table column (Table.RenameColumn(stirng, string))

Fixed issues:
+ Installer executes devenv /installtemplates even if VS2008
integration is not selected.
+ Duplicated logic between generator and runtime (generator depends on
runtime now)
+ MsTest tests are not properly attached to the right feature (Issue
96)
+ Assist methods now work with classes with multiple properties of the
same enum type.
+ Refactor IUnitTestGeneratorProvider interface to be more consistent
(Issue 4)
