                        Dfect 1.0.1

            Assertion testing library for Ruby

            http://snk.tuxfamily.org/lib/dfect/

```

Dfect is an assertion testing library for Ruby that  
emphasizes a simple assertion vocabulary, instant  
debuggability of failures, and flexibility in composing  
tests.

Version 1.0.1 (2009-10-07)

This release fixes a bug in the Test::Unit emulation library  
and revises the user manual.

```
 * [1]Bug fixes

 * [2]Housekeeping

```

Bug fixes

```
 * The parameters for the assert_equal() method in the
   dfect/unit library were in the wrong order.

```

Housekeeping

```
 * Revise user manual to better fit jQuery UI tabs.

 * Justify the use of eval() in emulation libraries.

 * Use simpler Copyright reminder at the top of every file.

 * Make SLOC count in user manual reflect the core library
   only.

 * Mark code spans with {:lang=ruby} instead of HTML <code/>
   tags.

 * Open source is for fun, so [3]be nice: speak of "related
   works" instead of "competitors".

```
