Thanks goes to the contributors!

group.

Breaking changes:
+ The generator has been improved to provide source code language.
Because of this, SpecFlow test generated
with this version will be incompatible with older runtimes.

New features:
+ Scoped Step Definitions: you can scope step definitions (bindings)
to tags, features and scenarios. Scope filter
can be applied to a class or a method with the [StepScope]
attribute.
See examples in Tests/FeatureTests/ScopedSteps/ScopedSteps.feature
and Tests/FeatureTests/ScopedSteps/ScopedStepsBindings.cs
(Thanks to Jose Simas for the contribution.)
+ Adding binding-culture to App.config. If set, this culture is used
during execution of steps.
+ VB-Step-Definition Skeleton Provider: For VB-projects, the suggested
step skeletons are generated in VB.
+ Merging strongly typed context accessors from Darren Cauthon's
SpecFlowAssist
+ Merging table/row extension methods from Darren Cauthon's
SpecFlowAssist
Add a using statement for the namespace TechTalk.SpecFlow.Assist to
use the extension methods.

+ Diagnostic tracing: VS2010 integration can display trace messages to
the Output window
if tracing is enabled. Tracing can be enabled by setting the
environment variable SPECFLOW_TRACE
to either "all" or to the comma separated list of individual
SpecFlow traing categories (currently
only the category "EditorParser" is supported).

Fixed issues:
+ Better error reporting for wrong Gherkin files (multiple errors
displayed, detect duplicate scenario names)
+ Visual Studio 2010 editor slows down after editing a feature file
for a longer time (Issue 9)
