v0.9.0

Nightwatch v0.9

New features

• Improved unit testing support - improved support for running unit tests with Nightwatch has been significantly improved (available behind the compatible_testcase_support setting); unit tests are also compatible with Mocha's exports interface and all the Nightwatch unit tests have been rewritten in this format. More details: http://nightwatchjs.org/guide#unit-testing
• Improved output for parallel running - test output when running tests in parallel has been improved to be more readable and by setting detailed_output to false it will be even easier to follow.
• Specify multiple test sources - it is now possible to directly specify several test files or folders as arguments to the cli runner. More details: http://local.nightwatchjs.org/guide#running-tests

Enhancements

• Added support for requiring subdirectories in page object path.
• Added support for passing multiple group names.
• Added detailed_output option to support showing only the testcase names in the log without assertion info

• Fixed an issue where globals weren't properly merged when overwritting properties on deep levels
• Added support for page objects elements property to accept an array

v0.8.16

• Added support to fail the test when an exception is thrown in a global hook by passing the error message to the done callback;
