[Drjava-users] New Beta Release of DrJava

[Corky C. <co...@ri...>]

​Dear DrJava Users:

We have made a new beta version available: drjava-20160913-225446.

Download at http://drjava.org.

DrJava is a lightweight programming environment for Java designed to foster
test-driven software development. It includes an intelligent program
editor, an interactions pane for evaluating program text, a source level
debugger, a unit testing tool, and a new code coverage tool.

In addition to bug fixes, this beta release includes two new features
introduced since the last stable release:

   1.

   The new Toolbar button labeled "Coverage" runs all of your unit tests
   (just like the "Test" button) and determines the code coverage (branches
   and statements) of these unit tests using Jacoco code coverage tool. It
   generates and displays pages with links reporting the code coverage of your
   unit tests.
   2.

   In the "Edit preferences" menu, the Fonts pane includes two new options:
   "MenuBar Font" and "ToolBar Font". The MenuBar Font option also controls
   the font in tab labels in the Tabbed Pane (including "Interactions" and
   "Find/Replace" among other tabs) below the Definitions window.

Note: Java 6 compatibility has been dropped. To use DrJava, you will need
Java 7 or newer.

Bug fixes since the last stable release:

We have tried to fix some minor bugs some of which have been introduced in
recent versions of DrJava. Please report bugs that you encounter using the
SourceForge bug reporting and tracking system. We have very limited
resources but we will try to address major bugs as quickly as possible and
minor bugs that are easy to fix before the next release.

Best,

Robert "Corky" Cartwright
