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 after the last stable release:

1. The new 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.

2. The "Edit preferences" menu Fonts pane includes two new options:
"MenuBar Font" and "ToolBar Font".  The MenuBar Font is also used for
the 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.

Unfortunately, the latest Java 8 JVM
supporting DrJava contains bugs too.  For example, the compile and test
command in the DrJava build.xml file crash the JVM about 5% of the time.
Fortunately, the crashes appear random so rerunning the command almost always
works.
