Pandas 0.18 doesn't like having null-ish values in categoricals. Fixing
this properly requires re-thinking the semantics for missing_value on
pipeline terms, so we're punting on that until after we've upgraded to
0.18.
Changes BcolzDailyBarWriter to not be an abc, data is passed as an
iterator of (sid, dataframe) pairs to the write method.
Changes the AssetsDBWriter to be a single class which accepts an engine
at construction time and has a `write` method for writing dataframes for
the various tables. We no longer support writing the various other data
types, callers should coerce their data into a dataframe themselves. See
zipline.assets.synthetic for some helpers to do this.
Adds many new fixtures and updates some existing fixtures to use the new
ones:
WithDefaultDateBounds
A fixture that provides the suite a START_DATE and END_DATE. This is
meant to make it easy for other fixtures to synchronize their date
ranges without depending on eachother in strange ways. For example,
WithBcolzMinuteBarReader and WithBcolzDailyBarReader by default should
both have data for the same dates, so they may use depend on
WithDefaultDates without forcing a dependency between them.
WithTmpDir, WithInstanceTmpDir
Provides the suite or individual test case a temporary directory.
WithBcolzDailyBarReader
Provides the suite a BcolzDailyBarReader which reads from bcolz data
written to a temporary directory. The data will be read from
dataframes and then converted to bcolz files with
BcolzDailyBarWriter.write
WithBcolzDailyBarReaderFromCSVs
Provides the suite a BcolzDailyBarReader which reads from bcolz data
written to a temporary directory. The data will be read from a
collection of CSV files and then converted into the bcolz data through
BcolzDailyBarWriter.write_csvs
WithBcolzMinuteBarReader
Provides the suite a BcolzMinuteBarReader which reads from bcolz data
written to a temporary directory. The data will be read from
dataframes and then converted to bcolz files with
BcolzMinuteBarWriter.write
WithAdjustmentReader
Provides the suite a SQLiteAdjustmentReader which reads from an in
memory sqlite database. The data will be read from dataframes and then
converted into sqlite with SQLiteAdjustmentWriter.write
WithDataPortal
Provides each test case a DataPortal object with data from temporary
resources.
Renames zipline.utils.test_utils to zipline.testing
Adds zipline.testing.fixtures.ZiplineTestCase to manage setup and
teardown and adds mixins to define fixtures like an asset finder or
trading calendar.

loaders
This allows people to set their cutoff time to the time they will
actually execute 'before_trading_start'. Currently this is just passed
to the constructor of the loader; however, I would like to make this
managed by the algorithm simulation runner. This would help keep all of
the loaders in sync and lock 'before_trading_start's execution to the
time the data is queried for.
EarningsCalendar loader.
- Moves most of AdjustedArray back into Python. The window iterator is
the only part that's performance-intensive.
- Adds a bootleg templating system for creating specialized versions of
AdjustedArrayWindow for each concrete type we care about.
- Adds support for differently dtyped terms in pipeline. This allows us
to use datetime64s which are needed in the EarningsCalendar.
- Adds EarningsCalendar dataset for the next and previous earnings
announcements in pipeline.
- Adds in memory loader for EarningsCalendar.
- Adds blaze loader for EarningsCalendar.
Fixes the case where a delta has an asof_date of the last requested
day and an index error would occur. This guards against this
specifically to make the delta be effective through the end of the
requested window.
Adds a test case for this behavior.
