ALEX v1.5.0

Breaking Changes

• Symbols and tests that have been exported with v.1.4.0 and lower can not be imported directly.
  Apply the new export format and for each symbol in an exported JSON file add the properties inputs and outputs so that the resulting file looks like:

  {
    "version": "1.4.0",
    "type": "symbols",
    "symbols": [
      {
        "name": "symbol",
        ...,
        "inputs": [],
        "outputs": []
      },
      ...
    ]
  }
