• Update a test to accomodate lme4::anova reporting NA instead of 1 for p-value when df=0.
  • No longer print message about missing cells with mean centered covariates for type III anova tables (issue #19)
  • Fix step such that fixed effects are reduced even if all random effects are reduced away (issue #23).
  • Remove argument “…” to accomodate new version of lme4 (from version 1.1-22)
  • Minor fix to tests to accomodate new version of lme4 (from version 1.1-22)
  • Sofie P Jensen is taking over as maintainer replacing Per B Brockhoff.
  • Fixing “noLD” CRAN issue (a check that ensures the package works on systems without long doubles). This was caused by an over sensitive test.
  • Adding support for legacy model fits, i.e. merModLmerTest objects generated with lmerTest version < 3.0-0. This includes defining the merModLmerTest class and anova, summary, drop1, ls_means, lsmeansLT and difflsmeans methods. The usual lme4 methods also work with objects of class merModLmerTest.
  • over-sensitive tests (failing on Solaris) have reduced tolerance
  • sigma and sigma.merMod defined and exported for R <= 3.3.0
  • Warn if Kenward-Roger is used with R <= 3.3.0 since it may give incorrect results
  • Add lme4 (>= 1.1-10) and R (>= 3.2.5) to Depends (last available version where lmerTest checks out)
  • pbkrtest package loaded conditional on availability in tests
  • The new and completely re-written lmerTest package. Details of changes are available in pdf or html
