@ -14,6 +14,19 @@ This section of the documentation enumerates all the changes in Flask from
release to release and how you can change your code to have a painless
updating experience.
If you want to use the `easy_install` command to upgrade your Flask
installation, make sure to pass it the ``-U`` parameter::
$ easy_install -U Flask
Version 0.4
-----------
For application developers there are no changes that require changes in
your code. In case you are developing on a Flask extension however, and
that extension has a unittest-mode you might want to link the activation
of that mode to the new ``TESTING`` flag.
Version 0.3
