-**View all [Unreleased][] changes here**
+## [1.2.2][]
+#### Changed
+-   Minor improvement to logic in `AbstractInputHandler::validateInput()`. Ensures that an input with a validator, but with a default value and no user suplied input, will have the default value used.
+
+## [1.2.1][]
+#### Changed
+-   Updated `InputHandlerFactory` and `InputTypeFactory` to work with changes in `pointybeard/helpers-foundation-factory` 1.0.2
+
+## [1.2.0][]
+#### Added
+-   Added `InputTypeFilterIterator` class
+-   Added `UnrecognisedInputException` exception
+
+#### Changed
+-   `InputCollection` now implements `Iterator` and `Countable` (implementing required methods)
+-   Removed use of `$type` in `InputCollection`
+-   Added `InputCollection::getItemsExcludeByType()`
+-   `InputCollection::getItemsByType()` and `InputCollection::getItems()` now returns an `Iterator`
+-   Renamed `InputCollection::append()` to `add()` and added `$position` flag
+-   Added `POSITION_APPEND` and `POSITION_PREPEND` flags to `InputCollection`
+-   Made `getCollection()`, `getInput()`, `find()`, and `validate()` in `AbstractInputHandler` final
+-   Removed all categorisation of items by type in `AbstractInputHandler::$input`
+-   Abstracted most of `AbstractInputHandler::validate()` into it's own protected method called `validateInput()`
+-   Removed `$skipValidation` argument from `AbstractInputHandler::bind()` and relaced with `$flags`
+-   Added `FLAG_BIND_SKIP_VALIDATION`, `FLAG_VALIDATION_SKIP_REQUIRED`, `FLAG_VALIDATION_SKIP_CUSTOM`, and `FLAG_VALIDATION_SKIP_UNRECOGNISED` flags to `AbstractInputHandler`
+-   Added check in `AbstractInputHandler::validate()` to look for unrecognised options and arguments
+-   Removed `InputHandlerFactory::FLAG_SKIP_VALIDATION` from `InputHandlerFactory`
+-   Passing flags in call from `InputHandlerFactory::build()` to `AbstractInputHandler::bind()`
+-   Updated `InputHandlerInterface::bind()` and `validate()` methods to support flags
+
+## [1.1.4][]
+#### Fixed
+-   Fixed misnamed variable in `InputCollection::merge()`
+
+## [1.1.3][]
+#### Fixed
+-   Fixed logic bug that prevented `$index` and `$type` from being set in `InputCollection::append()`. This means replaceing items in an `InputCollection` now works as expected
+
+## [1.1.2][]
+#### Added
+-   Added `InputValidationFailedException` exception
+-   Added `InputTypeInterface::getDisplayName()` method to standardise how the name of an `InputTypeInterface` class wants to display it's name
+
+#### Changed
+-   Updated validation logic for inputs that have a validator, no default, and are not set
+-   Throwing `InputValidationFailedException` exception when validation fails
+-   Updated `RequiredInputMissingException` and `RequiredInputMissingValueException` exceptions to use `InputTypeInterface::getDisplayName()` when producing their message
+-   Removed unused `RequiredArgumentMissingException` exception
+
+## [1.1.1][]
+#### Changed
+-   `AbstractInputHandler::find()` returns NULL if it cannot find any input with the supplied name. It is easier to test for NULL than it is to catch an exception
 
 ## [1.1.0][]
 #### Added
--   Expanded input types to include `Flag`, `IncrementingFlag`, and `LongOption`.
+-   Expanded input types to include `Flag`, `IncrementingFlag`, and `LongOption`
 -   Added `InputTypeFactory` to help with loading input type classes
 
 #### Changed
--   Updated to work with more than just `Argument` and `Option` input types. Makes use of `InputTypeFactory` to allow addition of new types as needed.
