Everything else
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Django :doc:`1.1 <1.1>` and :doc:`1.2 <1.2>` added
lots of big ticket items to Django, like multiple-database support,
model validation, and a session-based messages framework. However,
this focus on big features came at the cost of lots of smaller
features.
To compensate for this, the focus of the Django 1.3 development
process has been on adding lots of smaller, long standing feature
requests. These include:
* Improved tools for accessing and manipulating the current Site.
* A :class:`~django.test.client.RequestFactory` for mocking
requests in tests.
* A new test assertion --
:meth:`~django.test.client.Client.assertNumQueries` -- making it
easier to test the database activity associated with a view.
