BoxLang Evolved!

BoxLang is the newest JVM language that can support running not only BoxLang language files but CFML files with our bx-compat-cfml module. In TestBox 6.1.0 you can now leverage TestBox without the need of the CFML compatibility module. Making it native to BoxLang. This is now our last step in the introduction of bx-testbox that will come in the following weeks.
