We are so excited to bring you TestBox 2.1.0 and MockBox 3.1.0!  These releases are minor releases of our libraries and include not only great features but a slew of fixes.  You can read all about the exciting features in our What's New Guide!  They have also been integrated with CommandBox, our new ColdFusion CLI and package manager, to allow you to download, install and even execute tests in the command line.  We have also made available our integration server builds which can also be installed via our CLI.
