2.1.1
=====

This bug fix only adds lsb_* facts to the prefabs for: centos-64 and fedora-18

-------------------------------

2.1.0
=====

This is a small feature release, that includes the ability for custom prefabs to be 'merged' with the inbuilt ones. This is a convenience, so that one can override the box definitions without having to also provide new Fact details (for example).

#### Detailed Changes

* Bundle exec should be used (Hunter Haugen)
* Align bundler instructions based on @hunner previous patch (Ken Barber)
* Perform deep merge of custom prefabs (Dominic Cleal)
* Fix yard doc error for Helpers (Ken Barber)

-------------------------------

2.0.0
=====

This major release adds some syntactical sugar, providing the user with the ability to use helpers in subjects.

So for example, where before you could use `shell` as a helper:

    describe 'shell tests' do
      it 'test 1' do
        shell('cat /etc/hosts') do |r|
          r.stdout.should =~ /localhost/
          r.stderr.should be_empty
          r.exit_code.should be_zero
        end
      end
    end

Now you can use it as the subject of a `describe` or `context`:

    describe 'shell tests' do
      context shell 'cat /etc/hosts' do
        its(:stdout) { should =~ /localhost/ }
        its(:stderr) { should be_empty }
        its(:exit_code) { should be_zero }
      end
    end

The helper `rcp` has also been modified to benefit from this change:

    describe 'rcp tests' do
      context rcp :dp => '/tmp/foo', :sp => '/tmp/foo' do
        its(:success) { should be_true }
      end
    end

The fact that you can use the helpers in both places should provide the user with greater flexibility to create more succinct tests, while still providing simple sequences of commands in a single test when needed as before.

This facility is also available to other plugins by providing a new `RSpecSystem::Helper` object that can be extended to provide a new helper with all the syntactic sugar features as the core methods `shell` and `rcp`.

As part of this release, we have also removed some prior deprecations:

* The system_* methods no longer work: system_run, system_rcp and system_node
* system_setup_block no longer works.

Before upgrading, we suggest you upgrade to 1.7.0, paying heed to any deprecation warnings before upgrading to 2.0.0.

#### Detailed Changes

* Fix yarddoc for rcp (Ken Barber)
* Remove deprecations in prep for 2 (Ken Barber)
* More sugar through lazy helper object (Ken Barber)
* Fix 2 yard errors (Ken Barber)
* Minor improvements to tests and apidocs (Ken Barber)

-------------------------------

1.7.0
=====

This change adjusts the temporary path for vagrant projects to use a directory in your project `.rspec_system`. This way while debugging issues on your VM you do not need to scroll back to find the vagrant project, simply look in the local `.rspec_system`.

Now if you want to adjust this base directory to something else, you can use the directory RSPEC_SYSTEM_TMP.

#### Detailed Changes

* Change the tmp path for the vagrant_projects directory to be under projects root directory (Trey Dock)

-------------------------------

1.6.0
=====

This minor feature release now adds test counts to the rspec-system formatter, for example:

    Running test: 21 of 22

So you can see mid-flight where the testing is up to.

#### Detailed Changes

* Present test count in formatter (Ken Barber)

-------------------------------

1.5.0
=====

This release renames the helpers to something more succinct:

* shell (was system_run)
* rcp (was system_rcp)
* node (was system_node)

This patch also deprecates the system_setup_block in favour of before :suite instead.

In the next major release, the old helpers and system_setup_block will stop working so it is recommended to look out for the deprecation messages and adjust your code now so that the next major release (2.x) will continue to work.

#### Detailed Changes

* Deprecate usage of system_setup_block (Ken Barber)
* Rename old helpers to shell, node, rcp (Ken Barber)

-------------------------------

1.4.0
=====

This release adds the ability to provide a custom prefabs.yml.

To define custom prefabs you can now place a `.prefabs.yml` file in your projects root directory.

This also supports overriding the built-in prefabs as well, in case you wish to use your own image files - or use a cache host for example.

#### Detailed Changes

* Allow overriding prefabs including using boxes on local system (Trey Dockendorf)

-------------------------------

1.3.0
=====

This release adds a new environment variable RSPEC_DESTROY, when set to false it stops the virtual machines from being destroyed. This is useful for debugging, so you can keep the virtual machine running and login after failures to dig deeper into the failed state if you so desire.

#### Detailed Changes

* Add an environment variale option, RSPEC_DESTROY. When set to 'no' or 'false' this prevents the VM from being destroy before and after a test. (Trey Dockendorf)
