+## Summary of Changes in version 4.10 ##
+
+Thanks to a full cast of contributors of bug fixes and new features.
+
+A full summary of commits between 4.9 and 4.10 is on [github](https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/compare/r4.9...4.10)
+
+### junit-dep has correct contents ###
+
+junit-dep-4.9.jar incorrectly contained hamcrest classes, which could lead to version conflicts in projects that depend on hamcrest directly. This is fixed in 4.10 [@dsaff, closing gh-309]
+
+### RuleChain ###
+
+The RuleChain rule allows ordering of TestRules:
+
+ public static class UseRuleChain {
+ @Rule
+ public TestRule chain= RuleChain
+ .outerRule(new LoggingRule("outer rule")
+ .around(new LoggingRule("middle rule")
+ .around(new LoggingRule("inner rule");
+
+ @Test
+ public void example() {
+ assertTrue(true);
+ }
+ }
+
+writes the log
+
+ starting outer rule
+ starting middle rule
+ starting inner rule
+ finished inner rule
+ finished middle rule
+ finished outer rule
+
+### TemporaryFolder ###
+
+- `TemporaryFolder#newFolder(String... folderNames)` creates recursively deep temporary folders
+ [@rodolfoliviero, closing gh-283]
+- `TemporaryFolder#newFile()` creates a randomly named new file, and `#newFolder()` creates a randomly named new folder
+ [@Daniel Rothmaler, closing gh-299]
+
+### Theories ###
+
+The `Theories` runner does not anticipate theory parameters that have generic
+types, as reported by github#64. Fixing this won't happen until `Theories` is
+moved to junit-contrib. In anticipation of this, 4.9.1 adds some of the
+necessary machinery to the runner classes, and deprecates a method that only
+the `Theories` runner uses, `FrameworkMethod`#producesType().
+The Common Public License that JUnit is released under is now included
+in the source repository.
+
+Thanks to `@pholser` for identifying a potential resolution for github#64
+and initiating work on it.
+
+### Bug fixes ###
+
+- Built-in Rules implementations
+ - TemporaryFolder should not create files in the current working directory if applying the rule fails
+ [@orfjackal, fixing gh-278]
+ - TestWatcher and TestWatchman should not call failed for AssumptionViolatedExceptions
+ [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-296]
+- Javadoc bugs
+ - Assert documentation [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-134]
+ - ClassRule [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-254]
+ - Parameterized [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-89]
+ - Parameterized, again [@orfjackal, fixing gh-285]
+- Miscellaneous
+ - Useless code in RunAfters [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-289]
+ - Parameterized test classes should be able to have `@Category` annotations
+ [@dsaff, fixing gh-291]
+ - Error count should be initialized in junit.tests.framework.TestListenerTest [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-225]
+ - AssertionFailedError constructor shouldn't call super with null message [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-318]
+ - Clearer error message for non-static inner test classes [@stefanbirkner, fixing gh-42]
+
+### Minor changes ###
+
+- Description, Result and Failure are Serializable [@ephox-rob, closing gh-101]
+- FailOnTimeout is reusable, allowing for retrying Rules [@stefanbirkner, closing gh-265]
+- New `ErrorCollector.checkThat` overload, that allows you to specify a reason [@drothmaler, closing gh-300]
