Changelog

3.0.0 (2023-11-01)

• Dropped Python 2 support.

• Added an optional non-pipe TestProcess mode. You can use file objects for processes that are too verbose for a pipe.

• Added some tests.

2.1.2 (2021-05-02)

• Fixed another regression caused by the universal_newlines for Windows.

2.1.1 (2020-07-23)

• Fixed regression caused by the universal_newlines (now the internals don’t decode strings).

2.1.0 (2020-07-23)

• Applied the cookiecutter-pylibrary templates.

• TestProcess will use universal_newlines by default for the contained subprocess.Popen to make sure line buffering is actually used. This also fixes warnings on Python 3.

2.x (???)

• Lots of wild stuff.
