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.
