 NEXT (In development)
 ---------------------
 
+The Subunit Python test runner ``python -m subunit.run`` can now report the
+test ids and also filter via a test id list file thanks to improvements in
+``testtools.run``. See the testtools manual, or testrepository - a major
+user of such functionality.

+IMPROVEMENTS

+
+* The ``subunit.run`` Python module supports ``-l`` and ``--load-list`` as
+  per ``testtools.run``. This required a dependency bump due to a small
+  API change in ``testtools``. (Robert Collins)
