Changelogs

pytest-cov -> 2.3.1

2.3.1

  • Fixed regression causing spurious errors when xdist was used. See 124 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/124>_.
  • Fixed DeprecationWarning about incorrect addoption use. Contributed by Florian Bruhin in PR127 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/127>_.
  • Fixed deprecated use of funcarg fixture API. Contributed by Daniel Hahler in PR125 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/125>_.

2.3.0

  • Add support for specifying output location for html, xml, and annotate report.
    Contributed by Patrick Lannigan in PR113 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/113>_.
  • Fix bug hiding test failure when cov-fail-under failed.
  • For coverage >= 4.0, match the default behaviour of coverage report and
    error if coverage fails to find the source instead of just printing a warning.
    Contributed by David Szotten in PR116 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/116>_.
  • Fixed bug occurred when bare --cov parameter was used with xdist.
    Contributed by Michael Elovskikh in PR120 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/120>_.
  • Add support for skip_covered and added --cov-report=term-skip-covered command
    line options. Contributed by Saurabh Kumar in PR115 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/115>_.

2.2.1

  • Fixed incorrect merging of coverage data when xdist was used and coverage was >= 4.0.

2.2.0

  • Added support for changing working directory in tests. Previously changing working
    directory would disable coverage measurements in suprocesses.
  • Fixed broken handling for --cov-report=annotate.

2.1.0

  • Added support for coverage 4.0b2.
  • Added the --cov-append command line options. Contributed by Christian Ledermann
    in PR80 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/80>_.

2.0.0

  • Added --cov-fail-under, akin to the new fail_under option in coverage-4.0
    (automatically activated if there's a [report] fail_under = ... in .coveragerc).
  • Changed --cov-report=term to automatically upgrade to --cov-report=term-missing
    if there's [run] show_missing = True in .coveragerc.
  • Changed --cov so it can be used with no path argument (in wich case the source
    settings from .coveragerc will be used instead).
  • Fixed .pth installation to work in all cases (install, easy_install, wheels, develop etc).
  • Fixed .pth uninstallation to work for wheel installs.
  • Support for coverage 4.0.
  • Data file suffixing changed to use coverage's data_suffix=True option (instead of the
    custom suffixing).
  • Avoid warning about missing coverage data (just like coverage.control.process_startup).
  • Fixed a race condition when running with xdist (all the workers tried to combine the files).
    It's possible that this issue is not present in pytest-cov 1.8.X.

    • D, thanks to Kirk McDonald
    • MuPad, thanks to Christopher Creutzig

  • The HTML formatter now has a second line-numbers mode in which it
    will just integrate the numbers in the same &lt;pre&gt; tag as the
    code.
  • The CSharpLexer now is Unicode-aware, which means that it has an
    option that can be set so that it correctly lexes Unicode
    identifiers allowed by the C specs.
  • Added a RaiseOnErrorTokenFilter that raises an exception when the
    lexer generates an error token, and a VisibleWhitespaceFilter that
    converts whitespace (spaces, tabs, newlines) into visible
    characters.
  • Fixed the do_insertions() helper function to yield correct
    indices.
  • The ReST lexer now automatically highlights source code blocks in
    ".. sourcecode:: language" and ".. code:: language" directive
    blocks.
  • Improved the default style (thanks to Tiberius Teng). The old
    default is still available as the "emacs" style (which was an alias

    Pygments highlighting in Moin Wiki pages.
  • Changed the exception raised if no suitable lexer, formatter etc. is
    found in one of the get_*_by_* functions to a custom exception,
    pygments.util.ClassNotFound. It is, however, a subclass of
    ValueError in order to retain backwards compatibility.
  • Added a -H command line option which can be used to get the
    docstring of a lexer, formatter or filter.
  • Made the handling of lexers and formatters more consistent. The
    aliases and filename patterns of formatters are now attributes on
    them.
  • Added an OCaml lexer, thanks to Adam Blinkinsop.
  • Made the HTML formatter more flexible, and easily subclassable in
    order to make it easy to implement custom wrappers, e.g. alternate
    line number markup. See the documentation.
  • Added an outencoding option to all formatters, making it possible
    to override the encoding (which is used by lexers and formatters)
    when using the command line interface. Also, if using the terminal
    formatter and the output file is a terminal and has an encoding
    attribute, use it if no encoding is given.
  • Made it possible to just drop style modules into the styles
    subpackage of the Pygments installation.
  • Added a "state" keyword argument to the using helper.

    • Java Server Pages
    • Windows batch files
    • Trac Wiki markup
    • Python tracebacks
    • ReStructuredText

    theme.
  • Added sources.list lexer by Dennis Kaarsemaker.
  • Added token stream filters, and a pygmentize option to use them.

  • Added mimetypes for all lexers.
  • Fixed some problems lexing Python strings.

    lexers.
  • The HtmlFormatter's get_style_defs() can now take a list as an
    argument to generate CSS with multiple prefixes.

  • Encoding support added: all processing is now done with Unicode
    strings, input and output are converted from and optionally to byte
    strings (see the encoding option of lexers and formatters).
  • Some improvements in the C(++) lexers handling comments and line
    continuations.

0.5.1

(released Oct 30, 2006)

  • Fixed traceback in pygmentize -L (thanks to Piotr Ozarowski).

    Thanks okken     for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • Add buffer attribute to stdin stub class pytest.capture.DontReadFromInput
    Thanks joguSD_ for the PR.
  • Fix UnicodeEncodeError when string comparison with unicode has failed. (1864)
    Thanks AiOO     for the PR.
  • pytest_plugins is now handled correctly if defined as a string (as opposed as
    a sequence of strings) when modules are considered for assertion rewriting.
    Due to this bug, much more modules were being rewritten than necessary
    if a test suite uses pytest_plugins to load internal plugins (1888).
    Thanks jaraco     for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR (1891_).
  • Do not call tearDown and cleanups when running tests from
    unittest.TestCase subclasses with --pdb
    enabled. This allows proper post mortem debugging for all applications
    which have significant logic in their tearDown machinery (1890). Thanks
    mbyt     for the PR.
  • Fix use of deprecated getfuncargvalue method in the internal doctest plugin.
    Thanks ViviCoder_ for the report (1898_).

Incompatible changes

A number of incompatible changes were made in this release, with the intent of removing features deprecated for a long
time or change existing behaviors in order to make them less surprising/more useful.

  • Reinterpretation mode has now been removed. Only plain and rewrite
    mode are available, consequently the --assert=reinterp option is
    no longer available. This also means files imported from plugins or
    conftest.py will not benefit from improved assertions by
    default, you should use pytest.register_assert_rewrite() to
    explicitly turn on assertion rewriting for those files. Thanks
    flub_ for the PR.

  • The following deprecated commandline options were removed:

    • --genscript: no longer supported;
    • --no-assert: use --assert=plain instead;
    • --nomagic: use --assert=plain instead;
    • --report: use -r instead;

    Thanks to RedBeardCode_ for the PR (1664_).

  • ImportErrors in plugins now are a fatal error instead of issuing a
    pytest warning (1479). Thanks to The-Compiler for the PR.

  • Removed support code for Python 3 versions < 3.3 (1627_).

  • Removed all py.test-X* entry points. The versioned, suffixed entry points
    were never documented and a leftover from a pre-virtualenv era. These entry
    points also created broken entry points in wheels, so removing them also
    removes a source of confusion for users (1632).
    Thanks obestwalter     for the PR.

  • pytest.skip() now raises an error when used to decorate a test function,
    as opposed to its original intent (to imperatively skip a test inside a test function). Previously
    this usage would cause the entire module to be skipped (607).
    Thanks omarkohl     for the complete PR (1519_).

  • Exit tests if a collection error occurs. A poll indicated most users will hit CTRL-C
    anyway as soon as they see collection errors, so pytest might as well make that the default behavior (1421).
    A --continue-on-collection-errors option has been added to restore the previous behaviour.
    Thanks olegpidsadnyi     and omarkohl_ for the complete PR (1628_).

  • Renamed the pytest pdb module (plugin) into debugging to avoid clashes with the builtin pdb module.

  • Raise a helpful failure message when requesting a parametrized fixture at runtime,
    e.g. with request.getfixturevalue. Previously these parameters were simply
    never defined, so a fixture decorated like pytest.fixture(params=[0, 1, 2])
    only ran once (460).
    Thanks to nikratio     for the bug report, RedBeardCode_ and tomviner_ for the PR.

  • _pytest.monkeypatch.monkeypatch class has been renamed to _pytest.monkeypatch.MonkeyPatch
    so it doesn't conflict with the monkeypatch fixture.

  • --exitfirst / -x can now be overridden by a following --maxfail=N
    and is just a synonym for --maxfail=1.

New Features

  • Support nose-style __test__ attribute on methods of classes,
    including unittest-style Classes. If set to False, the test will not be
    collected.

  • New doctest_namespace fixture for injecting names into the
    namespace in which doctests run.
    Thanks milliams_ for the complete PR (1428_).

  • New --doctest-report option available to change the output format of diffs
    when running (failing) doctests (implements 1749).
    Thanks hartym     for the PR.

  • New name argument to pytest.fixture decorator which allows a custom name
    for a fixture (to solve the funcarg-shadowing-fixture problem).
    Thanks novas0x2a_ for the complete PR (1444_).

  • New approx() function for easily comparing floating-point numbers in
    tests.
    Thanks kalekundert_ for the complete PR (1441_).

  • Ability to add global properties in the final xunit output file by accessing
    the internal junitxml plugin (experimental).
    Thanks tareqalayan_ for the complete PR 1454_).

  • New ExceptionInfo.match() method to match a regular expression on the
    string representation of an exception (372).
    Thanks omarkohl     for the complete PR (1502_).

  • __tracebackhide__ can now also be set to a callable which then can decide
    whether to filter the traceback based on the ExceptionInfo object passed
    to it. Thanks The-Compiler_ for the complete PR (1526_).

  • New pytest_make_parametrize_id(config, val) hook which can be used by plugins to provide
    friendly strings for custom types.
    Thanks palaviv_ for the PR.

  • capsys and capfd now have a disabled() context-manager method, which
    can be used to temporarily disable capture within a test.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.

  • New cli flag --fixtures-per-test: shows which fixtures are being used
    for each selected test item. Features doc strings of fixtures by default.
    Can also show where fixtures are defined if combined with -v.
    Thanks hackebrot_ for the PR.

  • Introduce pytest command as recommended entry point. Note that py.test
    still works and is not scheduled for removal. Closes proposal
    1629. Thanks obestwalter and davehunt_ for the complete PR
    (1633_).

  • New cli flags:

    • --setup-plan: performs normal collection and reports
      the potential setup and teardown and does not execute any fixtures and tests;
    • --setup-only: performs normal collection, executes setup and teardown of
      fixtures and reports them;
    • --setup-show: performs normal test execution and additionally shows
      setup and teardown of fixtures;
    • --keep-duplicates: py.test now ignores duplicated paths given in the command
      line. To retain the previous behavior where the same test could be run multiple
      times by specifying it in the command-line multiple times, pass the --keep-duplicates
      argument (1609_);

    Thanks d6e, kvas-it, sallner, ioggstream and omarkohl_ for the PRs.

  • New CLI flag --override-ini/-o: overrides values from the ini file.
    For example: &quot;-o xfail_strict=True&quot;'.
    Thanks blueyed_ and fengxx_ for the PR.

  • New hooks:

    • pytest_fixture_setup(fixturedef, request): executes fixture setup;
    • pytest_fixture_post_finalizer(fixturedef): called after the fixture's
      finalizer and has access to the fixture's result cache.

    Thanks d6e, sallner.

  • Issue warnings for asserts whose test is a tuple literal. Such asserts will
    never fail because tuples are always truthy and are usually a mistake
    (see 1562). Thanks kvas-it, for the PR.

  • Allow passing a custom debugger class (e.g. --pdbcls=IPython.core.debugger:Pdb).
    Thanks to anntzer_ for the PR.

Changes

  • Plugins now benefit from assertion rewriting. Thanks
    sober7, nicoddemus and flub_ for the PR.
  • Change report.outcome for xpassed tests to &quot;passed&quot; in non-strict
    mode and &quot;failed&quot; in strict mode. Thanks to hackebrot_ for the PR
    (1795) and gprasad84 for report (1546_).
  • Tests marked with xfail(strict=False) (the default) now appear in
    JUnitXML reports as passing tests instead of skipped.
    Thanks to hackebrot_ for the PR (1795_).
  • Highlight path of the file location in the error report to make it easier to copy/paste.
    Thanks suzaku_ for the PR (1778_).
  • Fixtures marked with pytest.fixture can now use yield statements exactly like
    those marked with the pytest.yield_fixture decorator. This change renders
    pytest.yield_fixture deprecated and makes pytest.fixture with yield statements
    the preferred way to write teardown code (1461).
    Thanks csaftoiu     for bringing this to attention and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • Explicitly passed parametrize ids do not get escaped to ascii (1351).
    Thanks ceridwen     for the PR.
  • Fixtures are now sorted in the error message displayed when an unknown
    fixture is declared in a test function.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • pytest_terminal_summary hook now receives the exitstatus
    of the test session as argument. Thanks blueyed_ for the PR (1809_).
  • Parametrize ids can accept None as specific test id, in which case the
    automatically generated id for that argument will be used.
    Thanks palaviv_ for the complete PR (1468_).
  • The parameter to xunit-style setup/teardown methods (setup_method,
    setup_module, etc.) is now optional and may be omitted.
    Thanks okken_ for bringing this to attention and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • Improved automatic id generation selection in case of duplicate ids in
    parametrize.
    Thanks palaviv_ for the complete PR (1474_).
  • Now pytest warnings summary is shown up by default. Added a new flag
    --disable-pytest-warnings to explicitly disable the warnings summary (1668_).
  • Make ImportError during collection more explicit by reminding
    the user to check the name of the test module/package(s) (1426).
    Thanks omarkohl     for the complete PR (1520_).
  • Add build/ and dist/ to the default --norecursedirs list. Thanks
    mikofski_ for the report and tomviner_ for the PR (1544_).
  • pytest.raises in the context manager form accepts a custom
    message to raise when no exception occurred.
    Thanks palaviv_ for the complete PR (1616_).
  • conftest.py files now benefit from assertion rewriting; previously it
    was only available for test modules. Thanks flub, sober7 and
    nicoddemus_ for the PR (1619_).
  • Text documents without any doctests no longer appear as "skipped".
    Thanks graingert_ for reporting and providing a full PR (1580_).
  • Ensure that a module within a namespace package can be found when it
    is specified on the command line together with the --pyargs
    option. Thanks to taschini_ for the PR (1597_).
  • Always include full assertion explanation during assertion rewriting. The previous behaviour was hiding
    sub-expressions that happened to be False, assuming this was redundant information.
    Thanks bagerard_ for reporting (1503). Thanks to davehunt and
    tomviner_ for the PR.
  • OptionGroup.addoption() now checks if option names were already
    added before, to make it easier to track down issues like 1618_.
    Before, you only got exceptions later from argparse library,
    giving no clue about the actual reason for double-added options.
  • yield-based tests are considered deprecated and will be removed in pytest-4.0.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • [pytest] sections in setup.cfg files should now be named [tool:pytest]
    to avoid conflicts with other distutils commands (see 567). [pytest] sections in
    pytest.ini or tox.ini files are supported and unchanged.
    Thanks nicoddemus     for the PR.
  • Using pytest_funcarg__ prefix to declare fixtures is considered deprecated and will be
    removed in pytest-4.0 (1684).
    Thanks nicoddemus     for the PR.
  • Passing a command-line string to pytest.main() is considered deprecated and scheduled
    for removal in pytest-4.0. It is recommended to pass a list of arguments instead (1723_).
  • Rename getfuncargvalue to getfixturevalue. getfuncargvalue is
    still present but is now considered deprecated. Thanks to RedBeardCode_ and tomviner_
    for the PR (1626_).
  • optparse type usage now triggers DeprecationWarnings (1740_).
  • optparse backward compatibility supports float/complex types (457_).
  • Refined logic for determining the rootdir, considering only valid
    paths which fixes a number of issues: 1594, 1435 and 1471.
    Updated the documentation according to current behavior. Thanks to
    blueyed    , davehunt_ and matthiasha_ for the PR.
  • Always include full assertion explanation. The previous behaviour was hiding
    sub-expressions that happened to be False, assuming this was redundant information.
    Thanks bagerard_ for reporting (1503). Thanks to davehunt and
    tomviner_ for PR.
  • Better message in case of not using parametrized variable (see 1539).
    Thanks to tramwaj29     for the PR.
  • Updated docstrings with a more uniform style.
  • Add stderr write for pytest.exit(msg) during startup. Previously the message was never shown.

    tomviner_ for the PR.
  • No longer display the incorrect test deselection reason (1372).
    Thanks ronnypfannschmidt     for the PR.
  • The --resultlog command line option has been deprecated: it is little used
    and there are more modern and better alternatives (see 830).
    Thanks nicoddemus     for the PR.
  • Improve error message with fixture lookup errors: add an 'E' to the first
    line and '>' to the rest. Fixes 717. Thanks blueyed for reporting and
    a PR, eolo999_ for the initial PR and tomviner_ for his guidance during
    EuroPython2016 sprint.

2.9.0

New Features

  • New pytest.mark.skip mark, which unconditionally skips marked tests.
    Thanks MichaelAquilina_ for the complete PR (1040_).
  • --doctest-glob may now be passed multiple times in the command-line.
    Thanks jab_ and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • New -rp and -rP reporting options give the summary and full output
    of passing tests, respectively. Thanks to codewarrior0_ for the PR.
  • pytest.mark.xfail now has a strict option, which makes XPASS
    tests to fail the test suite (defaulting to False). There's also a
    xfail_strict ini option that can be used to configure it project-wise.
    Thanks rabbbit_ for the request and nicoddemus_ for the PR (1355_).
  • Parser.addini now supports options of type bool.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
  • New ALLOW_BYTES doctest option. This strips b prefixes from byte strings
    in doctest output (similar to ALLOW_UNICODE).
    Thanks jaraco_ for the request and nicoddemus_ for the PR (1287_).
  • Give a hint on KeyboardInterrupt to use the --fulltrace option to show the errors.
    Fixes 1366.
    Thanks to hpk42     for the report and RonnyPfannschmidt_ for the PR.
  • Catch IndexError exceptions when getting exception source location.
    Fixes a pytest internal error for dynamically generated code (fixtures and tests)
    where source lines are fake by intention.

Changes

  • Important: py.code &lt;https://pylib.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code.html&gt;_ has been
    merged into the pytest repository as pytest._code. This decision
    was made because py.code had very few uses outside pytest and the
    fact that it was in a different repository made it difficult to fix bugs on
    its code in a timely manner. The team hopes with this to be able to better
    refactor out and improve that code.
    This change shouldn't affect users, but it is useful to let users aware
    if they encounter any strange behavior.

    Keep in mind that the code for pytest._code is private and
    experimental, so you definitely should not import it explicitly!

    Please note that the original py.code is still available in
    pylib &lt;https://pylib.readthedocs.io&gt;_.

  • pytest_enter_pdb now optionally receives the pytest config object.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.

  • Removed code and documentation for Python 2.5 or lower versions,
    including removal of the obsolete _pytest.assertion.oldinterpret module.
    Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR (1226_).

  • Comparisons now always show up in full when CI or BUILD_NUMBER is
    found in the environment, even when -vv isn't used.
    Thanks The-Compiler_ for the PR.

  • --lf and --ff now support long names: --last-failed and
    --failed-first respectively.
    Thanks MichaelAquilina_ for the PR.

  • Added expected exceptions to pytest.raises fail message.

  • Collection only displays progress ("collecting X items") when in a terminal.
    This avoids cluttering the output when using --color=yes to obtain
    colors in CI integrations systems (1397_).

Bug Fixes

  • The -s and -c options should now work under xdist;
    Config.fromdictargs now represents its input much more faithfully.
    Thanks to bukzor_ for the complete PR (680_).
  • Fix (1290): support Python 3.5's ````operator in assertion rewriting.
    ThanksShinkenjoe     for report with test case and `tomviner`_ for the PR.
  • Fix formatting utf-8 explanation messages (1379).
    Thanks biern     for the PR.
  • Fix traceback style docs_ to describe all of the available options
    (auto/long/short/line/native/no), with auto being the default since v2.6.
    Thanks hackebrot_ for the PR.
  • Fix (1422_): junit record_xml_property doesn't allow multiple records
    with same name.

    with minor or major pytest releases.
  • Fix issue 766 by removing documentation references to distutils.
    Thanks Russel Winder.
  • Fix issue 1030: now byte-strings are escaped to produce item node ids
    to make them always serializable.
    Thanks Andy Freeland for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • Python 2: if unicode parametrized values are convertible to ascii, their
    ascii representation is used for the node id.
  • Fix issue 411: Add eq method to assertion comparison example.
    Thanks Ben Webb.
  • Fix issue 653: deprecated_call can be used as context manager.
  • fix issue 877: properly handle assertion explanations with non-ascii repr
    Thanks Mathieu Agopian for the report and Ronny Pfannschmidt for the PR.
  • fix issue 1029: transform errors when writing cache values into pytest-warnings

2.8.0

  • new --lf and -ff options to run only the last failing tests or
    "failing tests first" from the last run. This functionality is provided
    through porting the formerly external pytest-cache plugin into pytest core.
    BACKWARD INCOMPAT: if you used pytest-cache's functionality to persist
    data between test runs be aware that we don't serialize sets anymore.
    Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt for most of the merging work.

  • "-r" option now accepts "a" to include all possible reports, similar
    to passing "fEsxXw" explicitly (isse960).
    Thanks Abhijeet Kasurde for the PR.

  • avoid python3.5 deprecation warnings by introducing version
    specific inspection helpers, thanks Michael Droettboom.

  • fix issue562: nose.tools.istest now fully respected.

  • fix issue934: when string comparison fails and a diff is too large to display
    without passing -vv, still show a few lines of the diff.
    Thanks Florian Bruhin for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • fix issue736: Fix a bug where fixture params would be discarded when combined
    with parametrization markers.
    Thanks to Markus Unterwaditzer for the PR.

  • fix issue710: introduce ALLOW_UNICODE doctest option: when enabled, the
    u prefix is stripped from unicode strings in expected doctest output. This
    allows doctests which use unicode to run in Python 2 and 3 unchanged.
    Thanks Jason R. Coombs for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • parametrize now also generates meaningful test IDs for enum, regex and class
    objects (as opposed to class instances).
    Thanks to Florian Bruhin for the PR.

  • Add 'warns' to assert that warnings are thrown (like 'raises').
    Thanks to Eric Hunsberger for the PR.

  • Fix issue683: Do not apply an already applied mark. Thanks ojake for the PR.

  • Deal with capturing failures better so fewer exceptions get lost to
    /dev/null. Thanks David Szotten for the PR.

  • fix issue730: deprecate and warn about the --genscript option.
    Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt for the report and Christian Pommranz for the PR.

  • fix issue751: multiple parametrize with ids bug if it parametrizes class with
    two or more test methods. Thanks Sergey Chipiga for reporting and Jan
    Bednarik for PR.

  • fix issue82: avoid loading conftest files from setup.cfg/pytest.ini/tox.ini
    files and upwards by default (--confcutdir can still be set to override this).
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • fix issue768: docstrings found in python modules were not setting up session
    fixtures. Thanks Jason R. Coombs for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • added tmpdir_factory, a session-scoped fixture that can be used to create
    directories under the base temporary directory. Previously this object was
    installed as a _tmpdirhandler attribute of the config object, but now it
    is part of the official API and using config._tmpdirhandler is
    deprecated.
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • fix issue808: pytest's internal assertion rewrite hook now implements the
    optional PEP302 get_data API so tests can access data files next to them.
    Thanks xmo-odoo for request and example and Bruno Oliveira for
    the PR.

  • rootdir and inifile are now displayed during usage errors to help
    users diagnose problems such as unexpected ini files which add
    unknown options being picked up by pytest. Thanks to Pavel Savchenko for
    bringing the problem to attention in 821 and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • Summary bar now is colored yellow for warning
    situations such as: all tests either were skipped or xpass/xfailed,
    or no tests were run at all (this is a partial fix for issue500).

  • fix issue812: pytest now exits with status code 5 in situations where no
    tests were run at all, such as the directory given in the command line does
    not contain any tests or as result of a command line option filters
    all out all tests (-k for example).
    Thanks Eric Siegerman (issue812) and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • Summary bar now is colored yellow for warning
    situations such as: all tests either were skipped or xpass/xfailed,
    or no tests were run at all (related to issue500).
    Thanks Eric Siegerman.

  • New testpaths ini option: list of directories to search for tests
    when executing pytest from the root directory. This can be used
    to speed up test collection when a project has well specified directories
    for tests, being usually more practical than configuring norecursedirs for
    all directories that do not contain tests.
    Thanks to Adrian for idea (694) and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • fix issue713: JUnit XML reports for doctest failures.
    Thanks Punyashloka Biswal.

  • fix issue970: internal pytest warnings now appear as "pytest-warnings" in
    the terminal instead of "warnings", so it is clear for users that those
    warnings are from pytest and not from the builtin "warnings" module.
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira.

  • Include setup and teardown in junitxml test durations.
    Thanks Janne Vanhala.

  • fix issue735: assertion failures on debug versions of Python 3.4+

  • new option --import-mode to allow to change test module importing
    behaviour to append to sys.path instead of prepending. This better allows
    to run test modules against installated versions of a package even if the
    package under test has the same import root. In this example::

     testing/__init__.py
 testing/test_pkg_under_test.py
 pkg_under_test/

    the tests will run against the installed version
    of pkg_under_test when --import-mode=append is used whereas
    by default they would always pick up the local version. Thanks Holger Krekel.

  • pytester: add method TmpTestdir.delete_loaded_modules(), and call it
    from inline_run() to allow temporary modules to be reloaded.
    Thanks Eduardo Schettino.

  • internally refactor pluginmanager API and code so that there
    is a clear distinction between a pytest-agnostic rather simple
    pluginmanager and the PytestPluginManager which adds a lot of
    behaviour, among it handling of the local conftest files.
    In terms of documented methods this is a backward compatible
    change but it might still break 3rd party plugins which relied on
    details like especially the pluginmanager.add_shutdown() API.
    Thanks Holger Krekel.

  • pluginmanagement: introduce pytest.hookimpl and
    pytest.hookspec decorators for setting impl/spec
    specific parameters. This substitutes the previous
    now deprecated use of pytest.mark which is meant to
    contain markers for test functions only.

  • write/refine docs for "writing plugins" which now have their
    own page and are separate from the "using/installing plugins`` page.

  • fix issue732: properly unregister plugins from any hook calling
    sites allowing to have temporary plugins during test execution.

  • deprecate and warn about __multicall__ argument in hook
    implementations. Use the hookwrapper mechanism instead already
    introduced with pytest-2.7.

  • speed up pytest's own test suite considerably by using inprocess
    tests by default (testrun can be modified with --runpytest=subprocess
    to create subprocesses in many places instead). The main
    APIs to run pytest in a test is "runpytest()" or "runpytest_subprocess"
    and "runpytest_inprocess" if you need a particular way of running
    the test. In all cases you get back a RunResult but the inprocess
    one will also have a "reprec" attribute with the recorded events/reports.

  • fix monkeypatch.setattr("x.y", raising=False) to actually not raise
    if "y" is not a pre-existing attribute. Thanks Florian Bruhin.

  • fix issue741: make running output from testdir.run copy/pasteable
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira.

  • add a new --noconftest argument which ignores all conftest.py files.

  • add file and line attributes to JUnit-XML output.

  • fix issue890: changed extension of all documentation files from txt to
    rst. Thanks to Abhijeet for the PR.

  • fix issue714: add ability to apply indirect=True parameter on particular argnames.
    Thanks Elizaveta239.

  • fix issue890: changed extension of all documentation files from txt to
    rst. Thanks to Abhijeet for the PR.

  • fix issue957: " doctest: SKIP" option will now register doctests as SKIPPED
    rather than PASSED.
    Thanks Thomas Grainger for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

  • issue951: add new record_xml_property fixture, that supports logging
    additional information on xml output. Thanks David Diaz for the PR.

  • issue949: paths after normal options (for example -s, -v, etc) are now
    properly used to discover rootdir and ini files.
    Thanks Peter Lauri for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

2.7.3

  • Allow 'dev', 'rc', or other non-integer version strings in importorskip.
    Thanks to Eric Hunsberger for the PR.
  • fix issue856: consider --color parameter in all outputs (for example
    --fixtures). Thanks Barney Gale for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue855: passing str objects as plugins argument to pytest.main
    is now interpreted as a module name to be imported and registered as a
    plugin, instead of silently having no effect.
    Thanks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue744: fix for ast.Call changes in Python 3.5+. Thanks
    Guido van Rossum, Matthias Bussonnier, Stefan Zimmermann and
    Thomas Kluyver.
  • fix issue842: applying markers in classes no longer propagate this markers
    to superclasses which also have markers.
    Thanks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • preserve warning functions after call to pytest.deprecated_call. Thanks
    Pieter Mulder for PR.
  • fix issue854: autouse yield_fixtures defined as class members of
    unittest.TestCase subclasses now work as expected.
    Thannks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue833: --fixtures now shows all fixtures of collected test files, instead of just the
    fixtures declared on the first one.
    Thanks Florian Bruhin for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue863: skipped tests now report the correct reason when a skip/xfail
    condition is met when using multiple markers.
    Thanks Raphael Pierzina for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • optimized tmpdir fixture initialization, which should make test sessions
    faster (specially when using pytest-xdist). The only visible effect
    is that now pytest uses a subdirectory in the $TEMP directory for all
    directories created by this fixture (defaults to $TEMP/pytest-$USER).
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.

2.7.2

  • fix issue767: pytest.raises value attribute does not contain the exception
    instance on Python 2.6. Thanks Eric Siegerman for providing the test
    case and Bruno Oliveira for PR.
  • Automatically create directory for junitxml and results log.
    Thanks Aron Curzon.
  • fix issue713: JUnit XML reports for doctest failures.
    Thanks Punyashloka Biswal.
  • fix issue735: assertion failures on debug versions of Python 3.4+
    Thanks Benjamin Peterson.
  • fix issue114: skipif marker reports to internal skipping plugin;
    Thanks Floris Bruynooghe for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue748: unittest.SkipTest reports to internal pytest unittest plugin.
    Thanks Thomas De Schampheleire for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
  • fix issue718: failed to create representation of sets containing unsortable
    elements in python 2. Thanks Edison Gustavo Muenz.
  • fix issue756, fix issue752 (and similar issues): depend on py-1.4.29
    which has a refined algorithm for traceback generation.

2.7.1

  • fix issue731: do not get confused by the braces which may be present
    and unbalanced in an object's repr while collapsing False
    explanations. Thanks Carl Meyer for the report and test case.
  • fix issue553: properly handling inspect.getsourcelines failures in
    FixtureLookupError which would lead to to an internal error,
    obfuscating the original problem. Thanks talljosh for initial
    diagnose/patch and Bruno Oliveira for final patch.
  • fix issue660: properly report scope-mismatch-access errors
    independently from ordering of fixture arguments. Also
    avoid the pytest internal traceback which does not provide
    information to the user. Thanks Holger Krekel.
  • streamlined and documented release process. Also all versions
    (in setup.py and documentation generation) are now read
    from _pytest/init.py. Thanks Holger Krekel.
  • fixed docs to remove the notion that yield-fixtures are experimental.
    They are here to stay :) Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
  • Support building wheels by using environment markers for the
    requirements. Thanks Ionel Maries Cristian.
  • fixed regression to 2.6.4 which surfaced e.g. in lost stdout capture printing
    when tests raised SystemExit. Thanks Holger Krekel.
  • reintroduced _pytest fixture of the pytester plugin which is used
    at least by pytest-xdist.

2.7.0

  • fix issue435: make reload() work when assert rewriting is active.
    Thanks Daniel Hahler.
  • fix issue616: conftest.py files and their contained fixutres are now
    properly considered for visibility, independently from the exact
    current working directory and test arguments that are used.
    Many thanks to Eric Siegerman and his PR235 which contains
    systematic tests for conftest visibility and now passes.
    This change also introduces the concept of a rootdir which
    is printed as a new pytest header and documented in the pytest
    customize web page.
  • change reporting of "diverted" tests, i.e. tests that are collected
    in one file but actually come from another (e.g. when tests in a test class
    come from a base class in a different file). We now show the nodeid
    and indicate via a postfix the other file.
  • add ability to set command line options by environment variable PYTEST_ADDOPTS.
  • added documentation on the new pytest-dev teams on bitbucket and
    github. See https://pytest.org/latest/contributing.html .
    Thanks to Anatoly for pushing and initial work on this.
  • fix issue650: new option --docttest-ignore-import-errors which
    will turn import errors in doctests into skips. Thanks Charles Cloud
    for the complete PR.
  • fix issue655: work around different ways that cause python2/3
    to leak sys.exc_info into fixtures/tests causing failures in 3rd party code
  • fix issue615: assertion re-writing did not correctly escape % signs
    when formatting boolean operations, which tripped over mixing
    booleans with modulo operators. Thanks to Tom Viner for the report,
    triaging and fix.
  • implement issue351: add ability to specify parametrize ids as a callable
    to generate custom test ids. Thanks Brianna Laugher for the idea and
    implementation.
  • introduce and document new hookwrapper mechanism useful for plugins
    which want to wrap the execution of certain hooks for their purposes.
    This supersedes the undocumented __multicall__ protocol which
    pytest itself and some external plugins use. Note that pytest-2.8
    is scheduled to drop supporting the old __multicall__
    and only support the hookwrapper protocol.
  • majorly speed up invocation of plugin hooks
  • use hookwrapper mechanism in builtin pytest plugins.
  • add a doctest ini option for doctest flags, thanks Holger Peters.
  • add note to docs that if you want to mark a parameter and the
    parameter is a callable, you also need to pass in a reason to disambiguate
    it from the "decorator" case. Thanks Tom Viner.
  • "python_classes" and "python_functions" options now support glob-patterns
    for test discovery, as discussed in issue600. Thanks Ldiary Translations.
  • allow to override parametrized fixtures with non-parametrized ones and vice versa (bubenkoff).
  • fix issue463: raise specific error for 'parameterize' misspelling (pfctdayelise).
  • On failure, the sys.last_value, sys.last_type and
    sys.last_traceback are set, so that a user can inspect the error
    via postmortem debugging (almarklein).

2.6.4

  • Improve assertion failure reporting on iterables, by using ndiff and
    pprint.
  • removed outdated japanese docs from source tree.
  • docs for "pytest_addhooks" hook. Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
  • updated plugin index docs. Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
  • fix issue557: with "-k" we only allow the old style "-" for negation
    at the beginning of strings and even that is deprecated. Use "not" instead.
    This should allow to pick parametrized tests where "-" appeared in the parameter.
  • fix issue604: Escape % character in the assertion message.
  • fix issue620: add explanation in the --genscript target about what
    the binary blob means. Thanks Dinu Gherman.
  • fix issue614: fixed pastebin support.
  • fix issue620: add explanation in the --genscript target about what
    the binary blob means. Thanks Dinu Gherman.
  • fix issue614: fixed pastebin support.

2.6.3

  • fix issue575: xunit-xml was reporting collection errors as failures
    instead of errors, thanks Oleg Sinyavskiy.
  • fix issue582: fix setuptools example, thanks Laszlo Papp and Ronny
    Pfannschmidt.
  • Fix infinite recursion bug when pickling capture.EncodedFile, thanks
    Uwe Schmitt.
  • fix issue589: fix bad interaction with numpy and others when showing
    exceptions. Check for precise "maximum recursion depth exceed" exception
    instead of presuming any RuntimeError is that one (implemented in py
    dep). Thanks Charles Cloud for analysing the issue.
  • fix conftest related fixture visibility issue: when running with a
    CWD outside of a test package pytest would get fixture discovery wrong.
    Thanks to Wolfgang Schnerring for figuring out a reproducable example.
  • Introduce pytest_enter_pdb hook (needed e.g. by pytest_timeout to cancel the
    timeout when interactively entering pdb). Thanks Wolfgang Schnerring.
  • check xfail/skip also with non-python function test items. Thanks
    Floris Bruynooghe.

2.6.2

  • Added function pytest.freeze_includes(), which makes it easy to embed
    pytest into executables using tools like cx_freeze.
    See docs for examples and rationale. Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
  • Improve assertion rewriting cache invalidation precision.
  • fixed issue561: adapt autouse fixture example for python3.
  • fixed issue453: assertion rewriting issue with repr containing
    "\n{", "\n}" and "\n~".
  • fix issue560: correctly display code if an "else:" or "finally:" is
    followed by statements on the same line.
  • Fix example in monkeypatch documentation, thanks t-8ch.
  • fix issue572: correct tmpdir doc example for python3.
  • Do not mark as universal wheel because Python 2.6 is different from
    other builds due to the extra argparse dependency. Fixes issue566.
    Thanks sontek.
  • Implement issue549: user-provided assertion messages now no longer
    replace the py.test introspection message but are shown in addition
    to them.

2.6.1

  • No longer show line numbers in the --verbose output, the output is now
    purely the nodeid. The line number is still shown in failure reports.
    Thanks Floris Bruynooghe.
  • fix issue437 where assertion rewriting could cause pytest-xdist slaves
    to collect different tests. Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
  • fix issue555: add "errors" attribute to capture-streams to satisfy
    some distutils and possibly other code accessing sys.stdout.errors.
  • fix issue547 capsys/capfd also work when output capturing ("-s") is disabled.
  • address issue170: allow pytest.mark.xfail(...) to specify expected exceptions via
    an optional "raises=EXC" argument where EXC can be a single exception
    or a tuple of exception classes. Thanks David Mohr for the complete
    PR.
  • fix integration of pytest with unittest.mock.patch decorator when
    it uses the "new" argument. Thanks Nicolas Delaby for test and PR.
  • fix issue with detecting conftest files if the arguments contain
    "::" node id specifications (copy pasted from "-v" output)
  • fix issue544 by only removing "NUM" at the end of "::" separated parts
    and if the part has an ".py" extension
  • don't use py.std import helper, rather import things directly.
    Thanks Bruno Oliveira.

2.6

  • Cache exceptions from fixtures according to their scope (issue 467).
  • fix issue537: Avoid importing old assertion reinterpretation code by default.
  • fix issue364: shorten and enhance tracebacks representation by default.
    The new "--tb=auto" option (default) will only display long tracebacks
    for the first and last entry. You can get the old behaviour of printing
    all entries as long entries with "--tb=long". Also short entries by
    default are now printed very similarly to "--tb=native" ones.
  • fix issue514: teach assertion reinterpretation about private class attributes
  • change -v output to include full node IDs of tests. Users can copy
    a node ID from a test run, including line number, and use it as a
    positional argument in order to run only a single test.
  • fix issue 475: fail early and comprehensible if calling
    pytest.raises with wrong exception type.
  • fix issue516: tell in getting-started about current dependencies.
  • cleanup setup.py a bit and specify supported versions. Thanks Jurko
    Gospodnetic for the PR.
  • change XPASS colour to yellow rather then red when tests are run
    with -v.
  • fix issue473: work around mock putting an unbound method into a class
    dict when double-patching.
  • fix issue498: if a fixture finalizer fails, make sure that
    the fixture is still invalidated.
  • fix issue453: the result of the pytest_assertrepr_compare hook now gets
    it's newlines escaped so that format_exception does not blow up.
  • internal new warning system: pytest will now produce warnings when
    it detects oddities in your test collection or execution.
    Warnings are ultimately sent to a new pytest_logwarning hook which is
    currently only implemented by the terminal plugin which displays
    warnings in the summary line and shows more details when -rw (report on
    warnings) is specified.
  • change skips into warnings for test classes with an init and
    callables in test modules which look like a test but are not functions.
  • fix issue436: improved finding of initial conftest files from command
    line arguments by using the result of parse_known_args rather than
    the previous flaky heuristics. Thanks Marc Abramowitz for tests
    and initial fixing approaches in this area.
  • fix issue 479: properly handle nose/unittest(2) SkipTest exceptions
    during collection/loading of test modules. Thanks to Marc Schlaich
    for the complete PR.
  • fix issue490: include pytest_load_initial_conftests in documentation
    and improve docstring.
  • fix issue472: clarify that pytest.config.getvalue() cannot work
    if it's triggered ahead of command line parsing.
  • merge PR123: improved integration with mock.patch decorator on tests.
  • fix issue412: messing with stdout/stderr FD-level streams is now
    captured without crashes.
  • fix issue483: trial/py33 works now properly. Thanks Daniel Grana for PR.
  • improve example for pytest integration with "python setup.py test"
    which now has a generic "-a" or "--pytest-args" option where you
    can pass additional options as a quoted string. Thanks Trevor Bekolay.
  • simplified internal capturing mechanism and made it more robust
    against tests or setups changing FD1/FD2, also better integrated
    now with pytest.pdb() in single tests.
  • improvements to pytest's own test-suite leakage detection, courtesy of PRs
    from Marc Abramowitz
  • fix issue492: avoid leak in test_writeorg. Thanks Marc Abramowitz.
  • fix issue493: don't run tests in doc directory with python setup.py test
    (use tox -e doctesting for that)
  • fix issue486: better reporting and handling of early conftest loading failures
  • some cleanup and simplification of internal conftest handling.
  • work a bit harder to break reference cycles when catching exceptions.
    Thanks Jurko Gospodnetic.
  • fix issue443: fix skip examples to use proper comparison. Thanks Alex
    Groenholm.
  • support nose-style __test__ attribute on modules, classes and
    functions, including unittest-style Classes. If set to False, the
    test will not be collected.
  • fix issue512: show "<notset>" for arguments which might not be set
    in monkeypatch plugin. Improves output in documentation.

2.5.2

  • fix issue409 -- better interoperate with cx_freeze by not
    trying to import from collections.abc which causes problems
    for py27/cx_freeze. Thanks Wolfgang L. for reporting and tracking it down.
  • fixed docs and code to use "pytest" instead of "py.test" almost everywhere.
    Thanks Jurko Gospodnetic for the complete PR.
  • fix issue425: mention at end of "py.test -h" that --markers
    and --fixtures work according to specified test path (or current dir)
  • fix issue413: exceptions with unicode attributes are now printed
    correctly also on python2 and with pytest-xdist runs. (the fix
    requires py-1.4.20)
  • copy, cleanup and integrate py.io capture
    from pylib 1.4.20.dev2 (rev 13d9af95547e)
  • address issue416: clarify docs as to conftest.py loading semantics
  • fix issue429: comparing byte strings with non-ascii chars in assert
    expressions now work better. Thanks Floris Bruynooghe.
  • make capfd/capsys.capture private, its unused and shouldnt be exposed

2.5.1

  • merge new documentation styling PR from Tobias Bieniek.
  • fix issue403: allow parametrize of multiple same-name functions within
    a collection node. Thanks Andreas Kloeckner and Alex Gaynor for reporting
    and analysis.
  • Allow parameterized fixtures to specify the ID of the parameters by
    adding an ids argument to pytest.fixture() and pytest.yield_fixture().
    Thanks Floris Bruynooghe.
  • fix issue404 by always using the binary xml escape in the junitxml
    plugin. Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt.
  • fix issue407: fix addoption docstring to point to argparse instead of
    optparse. Thanks Daniel D. Wright.

2.5.0

  • dropped python2.5 from automated release testing of pytest itself
    which means it's probably going to break soon (but still works
    with this release we believe).

  • simplified and fixed implementation for calling finalizers when
    parametrized fixtures or function arguments are involved. finalization
    is now performed lazily at setup time instead of in the "teardown phase".
    While this might sound odd at first, it helps to ensure that we are
    correctly handling setup/teardown even in complex code. User-level code
    should not be affected unless it's implementing the pytest_runtest_teardown
    hook and expecting certain fixture instances are torn down within (very
    unlikely and would have been unreliable anyway).

  • PR90: add --color=yes|no|auto option to force terminal coloring
    mode ("auto" is default). Thanks Marc Abramowitz.

  • fix issue319 - correctly show unicode in assertion errors. Many
    thanks to Floris Bruynooghe for the complete PR. Also means
    we depend on py>=1.4.19 now.

  • fix issue396 - correctly sort and finalize class-scoped parametrized
    tests independently from number of methods on the class.

  • refix issue323 in a better way -- parametrization should now never
    cause Runtime Recursion errors because the underlying algorithm
    for re-ordering tests per-scope/per-fixture is not recursive
    anymore (it was tail-call recursive before which could lead
    to problems for more than >966 non-function scoped parameters).

  • fix issue290 - there is preliminary support now for parametrizing
    with repeated same values (sometimes useful to to test if calling
    a second time works as with the first time).

  • close issue240 - document precisely how pytest module importing
    works, discuss the two common test directory layouts, and how it
    interacts with PEP420-namespace packages.

  • fix issue246 fix finalizer order to be LIFO on independent fixtures
    depending on a parametrized higher-than-function scoped fixture.
    (was quite some effort so please bear with the complexity of this sentence :)
    Thanks Ralph Schmitt for the precise failure example.

  • fix issue244 by implementing special index for parameters to only use
    indices for paramentrized test ids

  • fix issue287 by running all finalizers but saving the exception
    from the first failing finalizer and re-raising it so teardown will
    still have failed. We reraise the first failing exception because
    it might be the cause for other finalizers to fail.

  • fix ordering when mock.patch or other standard decorator-wrappings
    are used with test methods. This fixues issue346 and should
    help with random "xdist" collection failures. Thanks to
    Ronny Pfannschmidt and Donald Stufft for helping to isolate it.

  • fix issue357 - special case "-k" expressions to allow for
    filtering with simple strings that are not valid python expressions.
    Examples: "-k 1.3" matches all tests parametrized with 1.3.
    "-k None" filters all tests that have "None" in their name
    and conversely "-k 'not None'".
    Previously these examples would raise syntax errors.

  • fix issue384 by removing the trial support code
    since the unittest compat enhancements allow
    trial to handle it on its own

  • don't hide an ImportError when importing a plugin produces one.
    fixes issue375.

  • fix issue275 - allow usefixtures and autouse fixtures
    for running doctest text files.

  • fix issue380 by making --resultlog only rely on longrepr instead
    of the "reprcrash" attribute which only exists sometimes.

  • address issue122: allow pytest.fixture(params=iterator) by exploding
    into a list early on.

  • fix pexpect-3.0 compatibility for pytest's own tests.
    (fixes issue386)

  • allow nested parametrize-value markers, thanks James Lan for the PR.

  • fix unicode handling with new monkeypatch.setattr(import_path, value)
    API. Thanks Rob Dennis. Fixes issue371.

  • fix unicode handling with junitxml, fixes issue368.

  • In assertion rewriting mode on Python 2, fix the detection of coding
    cookies. See issue 330.

  • make "--runxfail" turn imperative pytest.xfail calls into no ops
    (it already did neutralize pytest.mark.xfail markers)

  • refine pytest / pkg_resources interactions: The AssertionRewritingHook
    PEP302 compliant loader now registers itself with setuptools/pkg_resources
    properly so that the pkg_resources.resource_stream method works properly.
    Fixes issue366. Thanks for the investigations and full PR to Jason R. Coombs.

  • pytestconfig fixture is now session-scoped as it is the same object during the
    whole test run. Fixes issue370.

  • avoid one surprising case of marker malfunction/confusion::

    pytest.mark.some(lambda arg: ...)
    def test_function():

    would not work correctly because pytest assumes pytest.mark.some
    gets a function to be decorated already. We now at least detect if this
    arg is an lambda and thus the example will work. Thanks Alex Gaynor
    for bringing it up.

  • xfail a test on pypy that checks wrong encoding/ascii (pypy does
    not error out). fixes issue385.

  • internally make varnames() deal with classes's init,
    although it's not needed by pytest itself atm. Also
    fix caching. Fixes issue376.

  • fix issue221 - handle importing of namespace-package with no
    init.py properly.

  • refactor internal FixtureRequest handling to avoid monkeypatching.
    One of the positive user-facing effects is that the "request" object
    can now be used in closures.

  • fixed version comparison in pytest.importskip(modname, minverstring)

  • fix issue377 by clarifying in the nose-compat docs that pytest
    does not duplicate the unittest-API into the "plain" namespace.

  • fix verbose reporting for mock'd test functions

2.4.2

  • on Windows require colorama and a newer py lib so that py.io.TerminalWriter()
    now uses colorama instead of its own ctypes hacks. (fixes issue365)
    thanks Paul Moore for bringing it up.
  • fix "-k" matching of tests where "repr" and "attr" and other names would
    cause wrong matches because of an internal implementation quirk
    (don't ask) which is now properly implemented. fixes issue345.
  • avoid tmpdir fixture to create too long filenames especially
    when parametrization is used (issue354)
  • fix pytest-pep8 and pytest-flakes / pytest interactions
    (collection names in mark plugin was assuming an item always
    has a function which is not true for those plugins etc.)
    Thanks Andi Zeidler.
  • introduce node.get_marker/node.add_marker API for plugins
    like pytest-pep8 and pytest-flakes to avoid the messy
    details of the node.keywords pseudo-dicts. Adapted
    docs.
  • remove attempt to "dup" stdout at startup as it's icky.
    the normal capturing should catch enough possibilities
    of tests messing up standard FDs.
  • add pluginmanager.do_configure(config) as a link to
    config.do_configure() for plugin-compatibility

2.4.1

  • When using parser.addoption() unicode arguments to the
    "type" keyword should also be converted to the respective types.
    thanks Floris Bruynooghe, dnozay. (fixes issue360 and issue362)
  • fix dotted filename completion when using argcomplete
    thanks Anthon van der Neuth. (fixes issue361)
  • fix regression when a 1-tuple ("arg",) is used for specifying
    parametrization (the values of the parametrization were passed
    nested in a tuple). Thanks Donald Stufft.
  • merge doc typo fixes, thanks Andy Dirnberger

2.4

known incompatibilities:

  • if calling --genscript from python2.7 or above, you only get a
    standalone script which works on python2.7 or above. Use Python2.6
    to also get a python2.5 compatible version.
  • all xunit-style teardown methods (nose-style, pytest-style,
    unittest-style) will not be called if the corresponding setup method failed,
    see issue322 below.
  • the pytest_plugin_unregister hook wasn't ever properly called
    and there is no known implementation of the hook - so it got removed.
  • pytest.fixture-decorated functions cannot be generators (i.e. use
    yield) anymore. This change might be reversed in 2.4.1 if it causes
    unforeseen real-life issues. However, you can always write and return
    an inner function/generator and change the fixture consumer to iterate
    over the returned generator. This change was done in lieu of the new
    pytest.yield_fixture decorator, see below.

new features:

  • experimentally introduce a new pytest.yield_fixture decorator
    which accepts exactly the same parameters as pytest.fixture but
    mandates a yield statement instead of a return statement from
    fixture functions. This allows direct integration with "with-style"
    context managers in fixture functions and generally avoids registering
    of finalization callbacks in favour of treating the "after-yield" as
    teardown code. Thanks Andreas Pelme, Vladimir Keleshev, Floris
    Bruynooghe, Ronny Pfannschmidt and many others for discussions.

  • allow boolean expression directly with skipif/xfail
    if a "reason" is also specified. Rework skipping documentation
    to recommend "condition as booleans" because it prevents surprises
    when importing markers between modules. Specifying conditions
    as strings will remain fully supported.

  • reporting: color the last line red or green depending if
    failures/errors occurred or everything passed. thanks Christian
    Theunert.

  • make "import pdb ; pdb.set_trace()" work natively wrt capturing (no
    "-s" needed anymore), making pytest.set_trace() a mere shortcut.

  • fix issue181: --pdb now also works on collect errors (and
    on internal errors) . This was implemented by a slight internal
    refactoring and the introduction of a new hook
    pytest_exception_interact hook (see next item).

  • fix issue341: introduce new experimental hook for IDEs/terminals to
    intercept debugging: pytest_exception_interact(node, call, report).

  • new monkeypatch.setattr() variant to provide a shorter
    invocation for patching out classes/functions from modules:

    monkeypatch.setattr("requests.get", myfunc)

    will replace the "get" function of the "requests" module with myfunc.

  • fix issue322: tearDownClass is not run if setUpClass failed. Thanks
    Mathieu Agopian for the initial fix. Also make all of pytest/nose
    finalizer mimick the same generic behaviour: if a setupX exists and
    fails, don't run teardownX. This internally introduces a new method
    "node.addfinalizer()" helper which can only be called during the setup
    phase of a node.

  • simplify pytest.mark.parametrize() signature: allow to pass a
    CSV-separated string to specify argnames. For example:
    pytest.mark.parametrize(&quot;input,expected&quot;, [(1,2), (2,3)])
    works as well as the previous:
    pytest.mark.parametrize((&quot;input&quot;, &quot;expected&quot;), ...).

  • add support for setUpModule/tearDownModule detection, thanks Brian Okken.

  • integrate tab-completion on options through use of "argcomplete".
    Thanks Anthon van der Neut for the PR.

  • change option names to be hyphen-separated long options but keep the
    old spelling backward compatible. py.test -h will only show the
    hyphenated version, for example "--collect-only" but "--collectonly"
    will remain valid as well (for backward-compat reasons). Many thanks to
    Anthon van der Neut for the implementation and to Hynek Schlawack for
    pushing us.

  • fix issue 308 - allow to mark/xfail/skip individual parameter sets
    when parametrizing. Thanks Brianna Laugher.

  • call new experimental pytest_load_initial_conftests hook to allow
    3rd party plugins to do something before a conftest is loaded.

Bug fixes:

  • fix issue358 - capturing options are now parsed more properly
    by using a new parser.parse_known_args method.
  • pytest now uses argparse instead of optparse (thanks Anthon) which
    means that "argparse" is added as a dependency if installing into python2.6
    environments or below.
  • fix issue333: fix a case of bad unittest/pytest hook interaction.
  • PR27: correctly handle nose.SkipTest during collection. Thanks
    Antonio Cuni, Ronny Pfannschmidt.
  • fix issue355: junitxml puts name="pytest" attribute to testsuite tag.
  • fix issue336: autouse fixture in plugins should work again.
  • fix issue279: improve object comparisons on assertion failure
    for standard datatypes and recognise collections.abc. Thanks to
    Brianna Laugher and Mathieu Agopian.
  • fix issue317: assertion rewriter support for the is_package method
  • fix issue335: document py.code.ExceptionInfo() object returned
    from pytest.raises(), thanks Mathieu Agopian.
  • remove implicit distribute_setup support from setup.py.
  • fix issue305: ignore any problems when writing pyc files.
  • SO-17664702: call fixture finalizers even if the fixture function
    partially failed (finalizers would not always be called before)
  • fix issue320 - fix class scope for fixtures when mixed with
    module-level functions. Thanks Anatloy Bubenkoff.
  • you can specify "-q" or "-qq" to get different levels of "quieter"
    reporting (thanks Katarzyna Jachim)
  • fix issue300 - Fix order of conftest loading when starting py.test
    in a subdirectory.
  • fix issue323 - sorting of many module-scoped arg parametrizations
  • make sessionfinish hooks execute with the same cwd-context as at
    session start (helps fix plugin behaviour which write output files
    with relative path such as pytest-cov)
  • fix issue316 - properly reference collection hooks in docs
  • fix issue 306 - cleanup of -k/-m options to only match markers/test
    names/keywords respectively. Thanks Wouter van Ackooy.
  • improved doctest counting for doctests in python modules --
    files without any doctest items will not show up anymore
    and doctest examples are counted as separate test items.
    thanks Danilo Bellini.
  • fix issue245 by depending on the released py-1.4.14
    which fixes py.io.dupfile to work with files with no
    mode. Thanks Jason R. Coombs.
  • fix junitxml generation when test output contains control characters,
    addressing issue267, thanks Jaap Broekhuizen
  • fix issue338: honor --tb style for setup/teardown errors as well. Thanks Maho.
  • fix issue307 - use yaml.safe_load in example, thanks Mark Eichin.
  • better parametrize error messages, thanks Brianna Laugher
  • pytest_terminal_summary(terminalreporter) hooks can now use
    ".section(title)" and ".line(msg)" methods to print extra
    information at the end of a test run.

2.3.5

  • fix issue169: respect --tb=style with setup/teardown errors as well.
  • never consider a fixture function for test function collection
  • allow re-running of test items / helps to fix pytest-reruntests plugin
    and also help to keep less fixture/resource references alive
  • put captured stdout/stderr into junitxml output even for passing tests
    (thanks Adam Goucher)
  • Issue 265 - integrate nose setup/teardown with setupstate
    so it doesnt try to teardown if it did not setup
  • issue 271 - dont write junitxml on slave nodes
  • Issue 274 - dont try to show full doctest example
    when doctest does not know the example location
  • issue 280 - disable assertion rewriting on buggy CPython 2.6.0
  • inject "getfixture()" helper to retrieve fixtures from doctests,
    thanks Andreas Zeidler
  • issue 259 - when assertion rewriting, be consistent with the default
    source encoding of ASCII on Python 2
  • issue 251 - report a skip instead of ignoring classes with init
  • issue250 unicode/str mixes in parametrization names and values now works
  • issue257, assertion-triggered compilation of source ending in a
    comment line doesn't blow up in python2.5 (fixed through py>=1.4.13.dev6)
  • fix --genscript option to generate standalone scripts that also
    work with python3.3 (importer ordering)
  • issue171 - in assertion rewriting, show the repr of some
    global variables
  • fix option help for "-k"
  • move long description of distribution into README.rst
  • improve docstring for metafunc.parametrize()
  • fix bug where using capsys with pytest.set_trace() in a test
    function would break when looking at capsys.readouterr()
  • allow to specify prefixes starting with "_" when
    customizing python_functions test discovery. (thanks Graham Horler)
  • improve PYTEST_DEBUG tracing output by puting
    extra data on a new lines with additional indent

  • issue 260 - don't use nose special setup on plain unittest cases
  • fix issue134 - print the collect errors that prevent running specified test items
  • fix issue266 - accept unicode in MarkEvaluator expressions

2.3.4

  • yielded test functions will now have autouse-fixtures active but
    cannot accept fixtures as funcargs - it's anyway recommended to
    rather use the post-2.0 parametrize features instead of yield, see:
    http://pytest.org/latest/example/parametrize.html
  • fix autouse-issue where autouse-fixtures would not be discovered
    if defined in a a/conftest.py file and tests in a/tests/test_some.py
  • fix issue226 - LIFO ordering for fixture teardowns
  • fix issue224 - invocations with >256 char arguments now work
  • fix issue91 - add/discuss package/directory level setups in example
  • allow to dynamically define markers via
    item.keywords[...]=assignment integrating with "-m" option
  • make "-k" accept an expressions the same as with "-m" so that one
    can write: -k "name1 or name2" etc. This is a slight incompatibility
    if you used special syntax like "TestClass.test_method" which you now
    need to write as -k "TestClass and test_method" to match a certain
    method in a certain test class.

2.3.3

  • fix issue214 - parse modules that contain special objects like e. g.
    flask's request object which blows up on getattr access if no request
    is active. thanks Thomas Waldmann.
  • fix issue213 - allow to parametrize with values like numpy arrays that
    do not support an eq operator
  • fix issue215 - split test_python.org into multiple files
  • fix issue148 - unittest.skip on classes is now recognized and avoids

    pylib which re-introduced statement-finding for pre-AST interpreters
  • nose support: only call setup if its a callable, thanks Andrew
    Taumoefolau
  • fix issue219 - add py2.4-3.3 classifiers to TROVE list
  • in tracebacks ,* arg values are now shown next to normal arguments
    (thanks Manuel Jacob)
  • fix issue217 - support mock.patch with pytest's fixtures - note that
    you need either mock-1.0.1 or the python3.3 builtin unittest.mock.
  • fix issue127 - improve documentation for pytest_addoption() and
    add a config.getoption(name) helper function for consistency.

2.3.2

  • fix issue208 and fix issue29 use new py version to avoid long pauses
    when printing tracebacks in long modules
  • fix issue205 - conftests in subdirs customizing
    pytest_pycollect_makemodule and pytest_pycollect_makeitem
    now work properly

  • fix issue127 - better documentation for pytest_addoption
    and related objects.
  • fix unittest behaviour: TestCase.runtest only called if there are
    test methods defined
  • improve trial support: don't collect its empty
    unittest.TestCase.runTest() method
  • "python setup.py test" now works with pytest itself
  • fix/improve internal/packaging related bits:
    • exception message check of test_nose.py now passes on python33 as well
    • issue206 - fix test_assertrewrite.py to work when a global
      PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 is present
    • add tox.ini to pytest distribution so that ignore-dirs and others config
      bits are properly distributed for maintainers who run pytest-own tests

2.3.1

  • fix issue202 - fix regression: using "self" from fixture functions now
    works as expected (it's the same "self" instance that a test method
    which uses the fixture sees)
  • skip pexpect using tests (test_pdb.py mostly) on freebsd* systems
    due to pexpect not supporting it properly (hanging)
  • link to web pages from --markers output which provides help for
    pytest.mark.* usage.

2.3.0

  • fix issue202 - better automatic names for parametrized test functions
  • fix issue139 - introduce pytest.fixture which allows direct scoping
    and parametrization of funcarg factories.
  • fix issue198 - conftest fixtures were not found on windows32 in some
    circumstances with nested directory structures due to path manipulation issues
  • fix issue193 skip test functions with were parametrized with empty
    parameter sets
  • fix python3.3 compat, mostly reporting bits that previously depended
    on dict ordering
  • introduce re-ordering of tests by resource and parametrization setup
    which takes precedence to the usual file-ordering
  • fix issue185 monkeypatching time.time does not cause pytest to fail
  • fix issue172 duplicate call of pytest.fixture decoratored setup_module
    functions
  • fix junitxml=path construction so that if tests change the
    current working directory and the path is a relative path
    it is constructed correctly from the original current working dir.
  • fix "python setup.py test" example to cause a proper "errno" return
  • fix issue165 - fix broken doc links and mention stackoverflow for FAQ
  • catch unicode-issues when writing failure representations
    to terminal to prevent the whole session from crashing
  • fix xfail/skip confusion: a skip-mark or an imperative pytest.skip
    will now take precedence before xfail-markers because we
    can't determine xfail/xpass status in case of a skip. see also:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11105828/in-py-test-when-i-explicitly-skip-a-test-that-is-marked-as-xfail-how-can-i-get
  • always report installed 3rd party plugins in the header of a test run

    be reported as xfail (not xpass)
  • fix issue128: show captured output when capsys/capfd are used
  • fix issue179: propperly show the dependency chain of factories
  • pluginmanager.register(...) now raises ValueError if the
    plugin has been already registered or the name is taken
  • fix issue159: improve http://pytest.org/latest/faq.html
    especially with respect to the "magic" history, also mention
    pytest-django, trial and unittest integration.
  • make request.keywords and node.keywords writable. All descendant
    collection nodes will see keyword values. Keywords are dictionaries
    containing markers and other info.
  • fix issue 178: xml binary escapes are now wrapped in py.xml.raw
  • fix issue 176: correctly catch the builtin AssertionError
    even when we replaced AssertionError with a subclass on the

    before calling into a test
  • fix issue 191: add unittest TestCase runTest method support
  • fix issue 156: monkeypatch correctly handles class level descriptors
  • reporting refinements:
    • pytest_report_header now receives a "startdir" so that
      you can use startdir.bestrelpath(yourpath) to show
      nice relative path
    • allow plugins to implement both pytest_report_header and
      pytest_sessionstart (sessionstart is invoked first).
    • don't show deselected reason line if there is none
    • py.test -vv will show all of assert comparisations instead of truncating

2.2.4

  • fix error message for rewritten assertions involving the % operator

    binary escape
  • fix issue with unittest: now unittest.expectedFailure markers should
    be processed correctly (you can also use pytest.mark markers)
  • document integration with the extended distribute/setuptools test commands
  • fix issue 140: propperly get the real functions
    of bound classmethods for setup/teardown_class
  • fix issue 141: switch from the deceased paste.pocoo.org to bpaste.net
  • fix issue 143: call unconfigure/sessionfinish always when
    configure/sessionstart where called
  • fix issue 144: better mangle test ids to junitxml classnames
  • upgrade distribute_setup.py to 0.6.27

2.2.3

  • fix uploaded package to only include neccesary files

2.2.2

    produce better output
  • fix issue102: report more useful errors and hints for when a
    test directory was renamed and some pyc/pycache remain
  • fix issue106: allow parametrize to be applied multiple times
    e.g. from module, class and at function level.
  • fix issue107: actually perform session scope finalization
  • don't check in parametrize if indirect parameters are funcarg names
  • add chdir method to monkeypatch funcarg
  • fix crash resulting from calling monkeypatch undo a second time

    (missing files/directories)
  • "-qq --collectonly" now shows only files and the number of tests in them
  • "-q --collectonly" now shows test ids
  • allow adding of attributes to test reports such that it also works
    with distributed testing (no upgrade of pytest-xdist needed)

2.2.1

  • fix issue99 (in pytest and py) internallerrors with resultlog now
    produce better output - fixed by normalizing pytest_internalerror
    input arguments.
  • fix issue97 / traceback issues (in pytest and py) improve traceback output
    in conjunction with jinja2 and cython which hack tracebacks
  • fix issue93 (in pytest and pytest-xdist) avoid "delayed teardowns":
    the final test in a test node will now run its teardown directly
    instead of waiting for the end of the session. Thanks Dave Hunt for
    the good reporting and feedback. The pytest_runtest_protocol as well
    as the pytest_runtest_teardown hooks now have "nextitem" available
    which will be None indicating the end of the test run.
  • fix collection crash due to unknown-source collected items, thanks
    to Ralf Schmitt (fixed by depending on a more recent pylib)

2.2.0

  • fix issue90: introduce eager tearing down of test items so that
    teardown function are called earlier.
  • add an all-powerful metafunc.parametrize function which allows to
    parametrize test function arguments in multiple steps and therefore
    from indepdenent plugins and palces.
  • add a pytest.mark.parametrize helper which allows to easily
    call a test function with different argument values
  • Add examples to the "parametrize" example page, including a quick port
    of Test scenarios and the new parametrize function and decorator.
  • introduce registration for "pytest.mark.*" helpers via ini-files
    or through plugin hooks. Also introduce a "--strict" option which
    will treat unregistered markers as errors
    allowing to avoid typos and maintain a well described set of markers
    for your test suite. See exaples at http://pytest.org/latest/mark.html
    and its links.
  • issue50: introduce "-m marker" option to select tests based on markers
    (this is a stricter and more predictable version of '-k' in that "-m"
    only matches complete markers and has more obvious rules for and/or
    semantics.
  • new feature to help optimizing the speed of your tests:
    --durations=N option for displaying N slowest test calls
    and setup/teardown methods.
  • fix issue87: --pastebin now works with python3
  • fix issue89: --pdb with unexpected exceptions in doctest work more sensibly
  • fix and cleanup pytest's own test suite to not leak FDs

  • don't cache rewritten modules if bytecode generation is disabled
  • fix assertion rewriting in read-only directories
  • fix issue59: provide system-out/err tags for junitxml output
  • fix issue61: assertion rewriting on boolean operations with 3 or more operands
  • you can now build a man page with "cd doc ; make man"

2.1.0

  • fix issue53 call nosestyle setup functions with correct ordering
  • fix issue58 and issue59: new assertion code fixes
  • merge Benjamin's assertionrewrite branch: now assertions
    for test modules on python 2.6 and above are done by rewriting
    the AST and saving the pyc file before the test module is imported.
    see doc/assert.txt for more info.
  • fix issue43: improve doctests with better traceback reporting on
    unexpected exceptions
  • fix issue47: timing output in junitxml for test cases is now correct
  • fix issue48: typo in MarkInfo repr leading to exception
  • fix issue49: avoid confusing error when initizaliation partially fails
  • fix issue44: env/username expansion for junitxml file path
  • show releaselevel information in test runs for pypy
  • reworked doc pages for better navigation and PDF generation
  • report KeyboardInterrupt even if interrupted during session startup
  • fix issue 35 - provide PDF doc version and download link from index page

2.0.3

  • fix issue38: nicer tracebacks on calls to hooks, particularly early
    configure/sessionstart ones
  • fix missing skip reason/meta information in junitxml files, reported
    via http://lists.idyll.org/pipermail/testing-in-python/2011-March/003928.html
  • fix issue34: avoid collection failure with "test" prefixed classes
    deriving from object.
  • don't require zlib (and other libs) for genscript plugin without
    --genscript actually being used.
  • speed up skips (by not doing a full traceback represenation
    internally)
  • fix issue37: avoid invalid characters in junitxml's output

2.0.2

  • tackle issue32 - speed up test runs of very quick test functions
    by reducing the relative overhead

  • fix issue30 - extended xfail/skipif handling and improved reporting.
    If you have a syntax error in your skip/xfail
    expressions you now get nice error reports.

    Also you can now access module globals from xfail/skipif
    expressions so that this for example works now::

    import pytest
    import mymodule
    pytest.mark.skipif("mymodule.version[0] == "1")
    def test_function():
    pass

    This will not run the test function if the module's version string
    does not start with a "1". Note that specifying a string instead
    of a boolean expressions allows py.test to report meaningful information
    when summarizing a test run as to what conditions lead to skipping
    (or xfail-ing) tests.

  • fix issue28 - setup_method and pytest_generate_tests work together
    The setup_method fixture method now gets called also for
    test function invocations generated from the pytest_generate_tests
    hook.

  • fix issue27 - collectonly and keyword-selection (-k) now work together
    Also, if you do "py.test --collectonly -q" you now get a flat list
    of test ids that you can use to paste to the py.test commandline
    in order to execute a particular test.

  • fix issue25 avoid reported problems with --pdb and python3.2/encodings output

  • fix issue23 - tmpdir argument now works on Python3.2 and WindowsXP
    Starting with Python3.2 os.symlink may be supported. By requiring
    a newer py lib version the py.path.local() implementation acknowledges
    this.

  • fixed typos in the docs (thanks Victor Garcia, Brianna Laugher) and particular
    thanks to Laura Creighton who also revieved parts of the documentation.

  • fix slighly wrong output of verbose progress reporting for classes
    (thanks Amaury)

  • more precise (avoiding of) deprecation warnings for node.Class|Function accesses

  • avoid std unittest assertion helper code in tracebacks (thanks Ronny)

2.0.1

  • refine and unify initial capturing so that it works nicely
    even if the logging module is used on an early-loaded conftest.py
    file or plugin.
  • allow to omit "()" in test ids to allow for uniform test ids
    as produced by Alfredo's nice pytest.vim plugin.
  • fix issue12 - show plugin versions with "--version" and
    "--traceconfig" and also document how to add extra information
    to reporting test header
  • fix issue17 (import-* reporting issue on python3) by
    requiring py>1.4.0 (1.4.1 is going to include it)
  • fix issue10 (numpy arrays truth checking) by refining
    assertion interpretation in py lib
  • fix issue15: make nose compatibility tests compatible
    with python3 (now that nose-1.0 supports python3)
  • remove somewhat surprising "same-conftest" detection because
    it ignores conftest.py when they appear in several subdirs.
  • improve assertions ("not in"), thanks Floris Bruynooghe
  • improve behaviour/warnings when running on top of "python -OO"
    (assertions and docstrings are turned off, leading to potential
    false positives)
  • introduce a pytest_cmdline_processargs(args) hook
    to allow dynamic computation of command line arguments.
    This fixes a regression because py.test prior to 2.0
    allowed to set command line options from conftest.py
    files which so far pytest-2.0 only allowed from ini-files now.
  • fix issue7: assert failures in doctest modules.
    unexpected failures in doctests will not generally
    show nicer, i.e. within the doctest failing context.
  • fix issue9: setup/teardown functions for an xfail-marked
    test will report as xfail if they fail but report as normally
    passing (not xpassing) if they succeed. This only is true
    for "direct" setup/teardown invocations because teardown_class/
    teardown_module cannot closely relate to a single test.
  • fix issue14: no logging errors at process exit
  • refinements to "collecting" output on non-ttys
  • refine internal plugin registration and --traceconfig output
  • introduce a mechanism to prevent/unregister plugins from the
    command line, see http://pytest.org/plugins.htmlcmdunregister
  • activate resultlog plugin by default
  • fix regression wrt yielded tests which due to the
    collection-before-running semantics were not
    setup as with pytest 1.3.4. Note, however, that
    the recommended and much cleaner way to do test
    parametraization remains the "pytest_generate_tests"
    mechanism, see the docs.

2.0.0

  • pytest-2.0 is now its own package and depends on pylib-2.0
  • new ability: python -m pytest / python -m pytest.main ability
  • new python invcation: pytest.main(args, plugins) to load
    some custom plugins early.
  • try harder to run unittest test suites in a more compatible manner
    by deferring setup/teardown semantics to the unittest package.
    also work harder to run twisted/trial and Django tests which
    should now basically work by default.
  • introduce a new way to set config options via ini-style files,
    by default setup.cfg and tox.ini files are searched. The old
    ways (certain environment variables, dynamic conftest.py reading
    is removed).
  • add a new "-q" option which decreases verbosity and prints a more
    nose/unittest-style "dot" output.
  • fix issue135 - marks now work with unittest test cases as well
  • fix issue126 - introduce py.test.set_trace() to trace execution via
    PDB during the running of tests even if capturing is ongoing.
  • fix issue123 - new "python -m py.test" invocation for py.test
    (requires Python 2.5 or above)
  • fix issue124 - make reporting more resilient against tests opening
    files on filedescriptor 1 (stdout).
  • fix issue109 - sibling conftest.py files will not be loaded.
    (and Directory collectors cannot be customized anymore from a Directory's
    conftest.py - this needs to happen at least one level up).
  • introduce (customizable) assertion failure representations and enhance
    output on assertion failures for comparisons and other cases (Floris Bruynooghe)
  • nose-plugin: pass through type-signature failures in setup/teardown
    functions instead of not calling them (Ed Singleton)
  • remove py.test.collect.Directory (follows from a major refactoring
    and simplification of the collection process)
  • majorly reduce py.test core code, shift function/python testing to own plugin
  • fix issue88 (finding custom test nodes from command line arg)
  • refine 'tmpdir' creation, will now create basenames better associated
    with test names (thanks Ronny)
  • "xpass" (unexpected pass) tests don't cause exitcode!=0
  • fix issue131 / issue60 - importing doctests in init files used as namespace packages
  • fix issue93 stdout/stderr is captured while importing conftest.py
  • fix bug: unittest collected functions now also can have "pytestmark"
    applied at class/module level
  • add ability to use "class" level for cached_setup helper
  • fix strangeness: mark.* objects are now immutable, create new instances

1.3.4

  • fix issue111: improve install documentation for windows
  • fix issue119: fix custom collectability of init.py as a module
  • fix issue116: --doctestmodules work with init.py files as well
  • fix issue115: unify internal exception passthrough/catching/GeneratorExit
  • fix issue118: new --tb=native for presenting cpython-standard exceptions

1.3.3

  • fix issue113: assertion representation problem with triple-quoted strings
    (and possibly other cases)
  • make conftest loading detect that a conftest file with the same
    content was already loaded, avoids surprises in nested directory structures
    which can be produced e.g. by Hudson. It probably removes the need to use
    --confcutdir in most cases.
  • fix terminal coloring for win32
    (thanks Michael Foord for reporting)
  • fix weirdness: make terminal width detection work on stdout instead of stdin
    (thanks Armin Ronacher for reporting)
  • remove trailing whitespace in all py/text distribution files

1.3.2

New features

  • fix issue103: introduce py.test.raises as context manager, examples::

    with py.test.raises(ZeroDivisionError):
    x = 0
    1 / x

    with py.test.raises(RuntimeError) as excinfo:
    call_something()

    you may do extra checks on excinfo.value|type|traceback here

    (thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt)

  • Funcarg factories can now dynamically apply a marker to a
    test invocation. This is for example useful if a factory
    provides parameters to a test which are expected-to-fail::

    def pytest_funcarg__arg(request):
    request.applymarker(py.test.mark.xfail(reason="flaky config"))
    ...

    def test_function(arg):
    ...

  • improved error reporting on collection and import errors. This makes
    use of a more general mechanism, namely that for custom test item/collect
    nodes node.repr_failure(excinfo) is now uniformly called so that you can
    override it to return a string error representation of your choice
    which is going to be reported as a (red) string.

  • introduce '--junitprefix=STR' option to prepend a prefix
    to all reports in the junitxml file.

Bug fixes

  • make tests and the pytest_recwarn plugin in particular fully compatible
    to Python2.7 (if you use the recwarn funcarg warnings will be enabled so that
    you can properly check for their existence in a cross-python manner).
  • refine --pdb: ignore xfailed tests, unify its TB-reporting and
    don't display failures again at the end.
  • fix assertion interpretation with the ** operator (thanks Benjamin Peterson)
  • fix issue105 assignment on the same line as a failing assertion (thanks Benjamin Peterson)
  • fix issue104 proper escaping for test names in junitxml plugin (thanks anonymous)
  • fix issue57 -f|--looponfail to work with xpassing tests (thanks Ronny)
  • fix issue92 collectonly reporter and --pastebin (thanks Benjamin Peterson)
  • fix py.code.compile(source) to generate unique filenames
  • fix assertion re-interp problems on PyPy, by defering code
    compilation to the (overridable) Frame.eval class. (thanks Amaury Forgeot)
  • fix py.path.local.pyimport() to work with directories
  • streamline py.path.local.mkdtemp implementation and usage
  • don't print empty lines when showing junitxml-filename
  • add optional boolean ignore_errors parameter to py.path.local.remove
  • fix terminal writing on win32/python2.4
  • py.process.cmdexec() now tries harder to return properly encoded unicode objects
    on all python versions
  • install plain py.test/py.which scripts also for Jython, this helps to
    get canonical script paths in virtualenv situations
  • make path.bestrelpath(path) return ".", note that when calling
    X.bestrelpath the assumption is that X is a directory.
  • make initial conftest discovery ignore "--" prefixed arguments
  • fix resultlog plugin when used in an multicpu/multihost xdist situation
    (thanks Jakub Gustak)
  • perform distributed testing related reporting in the xdist-plugin
    rather than having dist-related code in the generic py.test
    distribution
  • fix homedir detection on Windows
  • ship distribute_setup.py version 0.6.13

1.3.1

New features

  • issue91: introduce new py.test.xfail(reason) helper
    to imperatively mark a test as expected to fail. Can
    be used from within setup and test functions. This is
    useful especially for parametrized tests when certain
    configurations are expected-to-fail. In this case the
    declarative approach with the py.test.mark.xfail cannot
    be used as it would mark all configurations as xfail.

  • issue102: introduce new --maxfail=NUM option to stop
    test runs after NUM failures. This is a generalization
    of the '-x' or '--exitfirst' option which is now equivalent
    to '--maxfail=1'. Both '-x' and '--maxfail' will
    now also print a line near the end indicating the Interruption.

  • issue89: allow py.test.mark decorators to be used on classes
    (class decorators were introduced with python2.6) and
    also allow to have multiple markers applied at class/module level
    by specifying a list.

  • improve and refine letter reporting in the progress bar:
    . pass
    f failed test
    s skipped tests (reminder: use for dependency/platform mismatch only)
    x xfailed test (test that was expected to fail)
    X xpassed test (test that was expected to fail but passed)

    You can use any combination of 'fsxX' with the '-r' extended
    reporting option. The xfail/xpass results will show up as
    skipped tests in the junitxml output - which also fixes
    issue99.

  • make py.test.cmdline.main() return the exitstatus instead of raising
    SystemExit and also allow it to be called multiple times. This of
    course requires that your application and tests are properly teared
    down and don't have global state.

Bug Fixes

  • improved traceback presentation:
    • improved and unified reporting for "--tb=short" option
    • Errors during test module imports are much shorter, (using --tb=short style)
    • raises shows shorter more relevant tracebacks
    • --fulltrace now more systematically makes traces longer / inhibits cutting
  • improve support for raises and other dynamically compiled code by
    manipulating python's linecache.cache instead of the previous
    rather hacky way of creating custom code objects. This makes
    it seemlessly work on Jython and PyPy where it previously didn't.
  • fix issue96: make capturing more resilient against Control-C
    interruptions (involved somewhat substantial refactoring
    to the underlying capturing functionality to avoid race
    conditions).
  • fix chaining of conditional skipif/xfail decorators - so it works now
    as expected to use multiple py.test.mark.skipif(condition) decorators,
    including specific reporting which of the conditions lead to skipping.
  • fix issue95: late-import zlib so that it's not required
    for general py.test startup.
  • fix issue94: make reporting more robust against bogus source code
    (and internally be more careful when presenting unexpected byte sequences)

1.3.0

  • deprecate --report option in favour of a new shorter and easier to
    remember -r option: it takes a string argument consisting of any
    combination of 'xfsX' characters. They relate to the single chars
    you see during the dotted progress printing and will print an extra line
    per test at the end of the test run. This extra line indicates the exact
    position or test ID that you directly paste to the py.test cmdline in order
    to re-run a particular test.

  • allow external plugins to register new hooks via the new
    pytest_addhooks(pluginmanager) hook. The new release of
    the pytest-xdist plugin for distributed and looponfailing
    testing requires this feature.

  • add a new pytest_ignore_collect(path, config) hook to allow projects and
    plugins to define exclusion behaviour for their directory structure -
    for example you may define in a conftest.py this method::

     def pytest_ignore_collect(path):
     return path.check(link=1)

    to prevent even a collection try of any tests in symlinked dirs.

  • new pytest_pycollect_makemodule(path, parent) hook for
    allowing customization of the Module collection object for a
    matching test module.

  • extend and refine xfail mechanism:
    py.test.mark.xfail(run=False) do not run the decorated test
    py.test.mark.xfail(reason=&quot;...&quot;) prints the reason string in xfail summaries
    specifiying --runxfail on command line virtually ignores xfail markers

  • expose (previously internal) commonly useful methods:
    py.io.get_terminal_with() -> return terminal width
    py.io.ansi_print(...) -> print colored/bold text on linux/win32
    py.io.saferepr(obj) -> return limited representation string

  • expose test outcome related exceptions as py.test.skip.Exception,
    py.test.raises.Exception etc., useful mostly for plugins
    doing special outcome interpretation/tweaking

  • (issue85) fix junitxml plugin to handle tests with non-ascii output

  • fix/refine python3 compatibility (thanks Benjamin Peterson)

  • fixes for making the jython/win32 combination work, note however:
    jython2.5.1/win32 does not provide a command line launcher, see
    http://bugs.jython.org/issue1491 . See pylib install documentation
    for how to work around.

  • fixes for handling of unicode exception values and unprintable objects

  • (issue87) fix unboundlocal error in assertionold code

  • (issue86) improve documentation for looponfailing

  • refine IO capturing: stdin-redirect pseudo-file now has a NOP close() method

  • ship distribute_setup.py version 0.6.10

  • added links to the new capturelog and coverage plugins

1.2.0

  • refined usage and options for "py.cleanup"::

    py.cleanup remove ".pyc" and "$py.class" (jython) files
    py.cleanup -e .swp -e .cache also remove files with these extensions
    py.cleanup -s remove "build" and "dist" directory next to setup.py files
    py.cleanup -d also remove empty directories
    py.cleanup -a synonym for "-s -d -e 'pip-log.txt'"
    py.cleanup -n dry run, only show what would be removed

  • add a new option "py.test --funcargs" which shows available funcargs
    and their help strings (docstrings on their respective factory function)
    for a given test path

  • display a short and concise traceback if a funcarg lookup fails

  • early-load "conftest.py" files in non-dot first-level sub directories.
    allows to conveniently keep and access test-related options in a test
    subdir and still add command line options.

  • fix issue67: new super-short traceback-printing option: "--tb=line" will print a single line for each failing (python) test indicating its filename, lineno and the failure value

  • fix issue78: always call python-level teardown functions even if the
    according setup failed. This includes refinements for calling setup_module/class functions
    which will now only be called once instead of the previous behaviour where they'd be called
    multiple times if they raise an exception (including a Skipped exception). Any exception
    will be re-corded and associated with all tests in the according module/class scope.

  • fix issue63: assume <40 columns to be a bogus terminal width, default to 80

  • fix pdb debugging to be in the correct frame on raises-related errors

  • update apipkg.py to fix an issue where recursive imports might
    unnecessarily break importing

  • fix plugin links

1.1.1

  • moved dist/looponfailing from py.test core into a new
    separately released pytest-xdist plugin.
  • new junitxml plugin: --junitxml=path will generate a junit style xml file
    which is processable e.g. by the Hudson CI system.
  • new option: --genscript=path will generate a standalone py.test script
    which will not need any libraries installed. thanks to Ralf Schmitt.
  • new option: --ignore will prevent specified path from collection.
    Can be specified multiple times.
  • new option: --confcutdir=dir will make py.test only consider conftest
    files that are relative to the specified dir.
  • new funcarg: "pytestconfig" is the pytest config object for access
    to command line args and can now be easily used in a test.
  • install py.test and py.which with a -$VERSION suffix to
    disambiguate between Python3, python2.X, Jython and PyPy installed versions.
  • new "pytestconfig" funcarg allows access to test config object
  • new "pytest_report_header" hook can return additional lines
    to be displayed at the header of a test run.
  • (experimental) allow "py.test path::name1::name2::..." for pointing
    to a test within a test collection directly. This might eventually
    evolve as a full substitute to "-k" specifications.
  • streamlined plugin loading: order is now as documented in
    customize.html: setuptools, ENV, commandline, conftest.
    also setuptools entry point names are turned to canonical namees ("pytest_*")
  • automatically skip tests that need 'capfd' but have no os.dup
  • allow pytest_generate_tests to be defined in classes as well
  • deprecate usage of 'disabled' attribute in favour of pytestmark
  • deprecate definition of Directory, Module, Class and Function nodes
    in conftest.py files. Use pytest collect hooks instead.
  • collection/item node specific runtest/collect hooks are only called exactly
    on matching conftest.py files, i.e. ones which are exactly below
    the filesystem path of an item
  • change: the first pytest_collect_directory hook to return something
    will now prevent further hooks to be called.
  • change: figleaf plugin now requires --figleaf to run. Also
    change its long command line options to be a bit shorter (see py.test -h).
  • change: pytest doctest plugin is now enabled by default and has a
    new option --doctest-glob to set a pattern for file matches.
  • change: remove internal py._* helper vars, only keep py._pydir
  • robustify capturing to survive if custom pytest_runtest_setup
    code failed and prevented the capturing setup code from running.
  • make py.test.* helpers provided by default plugins visible early -
    works transparently both for pydoc and for interactive sessions
    which will regularly see e.g. py.test.mark and py.test.importorskip.
  • simplify internal plugin manager machinery
  • simplify internal collection tree by introducing a RootCollector node
  • fix assert reinterpreation that sees a call containing "keyword=..."
  • fix issue66: invoke pytest_sessionstart and pytest_sessionfinish
    hooks on slaves during dist-testing, report module/session teardown
    hooks correctly.
  • fix issue65: properly handle dist-testing if no
    execnet/py lib installed remotely.
  • skip some install-tests if no execnet is available
  • fix docs, fix internal bin/ script generation

1.1.0

  • introduce automatic plugin registration via 'pytest11'
    entrypoints via setuptools' pkg_resources.iter_entry_points
  • fix py.test dist-testing to work with execnet >= 1.0.0b4
  • re-introduce py.test.cmdline.main() for better backward compatibility
  • svn paths: fix a bug with path.check(versioned=True) for svn paths,
    allow '%' in svn paths, make svnwc.update() default to interactive mode
    like in 1.0.x and add svnwc.update(interactive=False) to inhibit interaction.
  • refine distributed tarball to contain test and no pyc files
  • try harder to have deprecation warnings for py.compat.* accesses
    report a correct location

1.0.3

  • adjust and improve docs
  • remove py.rest tool and internal namespace - it was
    never really advertised and can still be used with
    the old release if needed. If there is interest
    it could be revived into its own tool i guess.
  • fix issue48 and issue59: raise an Error if the module
    from an imported test file does not seem to come from
    the filepath - avoids "same-name" confusion that has
    been reported repeatedly
  • merged Ronny's nose-compatibility hacks: now
    nose-style setup_module() and setup() functions are
    supported
  • introduce generalized py.test.mark function marking
  • reshuffle / refine command line grouping
  • deprecate parser.addgroup in favour of getgroup which creates option group
  • add --report command line option that allows to control showing of skipped/xfailed sections
  • generalized skipping: a new way to mark python functions with skipif or xfail
    at function, class and modules level based on platform or sys-module attributes.
  • extend py.test.mark decorator to allow for positional args
  • introduce and test "py.cleanup -d" to remove empty directories
  • fix issue 59 - robustify unittest test collection
  • make bpython/help interaction work by adding an all attribute
    to ApiModule, cleanup initpkg
  • use MIT license for pylib, add some contributors
  • remove py.execnet code and substitute all usages with 'execnet' proper
  • fix issue50 - cached_setup now caches more to expectations
    for test functions with multiple arguments.
  • merge Jarko's fixes, issue 45 and 46
  • add the ability to specify a path for py.lookup to search in
  • fix a funcarg cached_setup bug probably only occuring
    in distributed testing and "module" scope with teardown.
  • many fixes and changes for making the code base python3 compatible,
    many thanks to Benjamin Peterson for helping with this.
  • consolidate builtins implementation to be compatible with >=2.3,
    add helpers to ease keeping 2 and 3k compatible code
  • deprecate py.compat.doctest|subprocess|textwrap|optparse
  • deprecate py.magic.autopath, remove py/magic directory
  • move pytest assertion handling to py/code and a pytest_assertion
    plugin, add "--no-assert" option, deprecate py.magic namespaces
    in favour of (less) py.code ones.
  • consolidate and cleanup py/code classes and files
  • cleanup py/misc, move tests to bin-for-dist
  • introduce delattr/delitem/delenv methods to py.test's monkeypatch funcarg
  • consolidate py.log implementation, remove old approach.
  • introduce py.io.TextIO and py.io.BytesIO for distinguishing between
    text/unicode and byte-streams (uses underlying standard lib io.*
    if available)
  • make py.unittest_convert helper script available which converts "unittest.py"
    style files into the simpler assert/direct-test-classes py.test/nosetests
    style. The script was written by Laura Creighton.
  • simplified internal localpath implementation

1.0.2

  • fixing packaging issues, triggered by fedora redhat packaging,
    also added doc, examples and contrib dirs to the tarball.
  • added a documentation link to the new django plugin.

1.0.1

  • added a 'pytest_nose' plugin which handles nose.SkipTest,
    nose-style function/method/generator setup/teardown and
    tries to report functions correctly.
  • capturing of unicode writes or encoded strings to sys.stdout/err
    work better, also terminalwriting was adapted and somewhat
    unified between windows and linux.
  • improved documentation layout and content a lot
  • added a "--help-config" option to show conftest.py / ENV-var names for
    all longopt cmdline options, and some special conftest.py variables.
    renamed 'conf_capture' conftest setting to 'option_capture' accordingly.
  • fix issue 27: better reporting on non-collectable items given on commandline
    (e.g. pyc files)
  • fix issue 33: added --version flag (thanks Benjamin Peterson)
  • fix issue 32: adding support for "incomplete" paths to wcpath.status()
  • "Test" prefixed classes are not collected by default anymore if they
    have an init method
  • monkeypatch setenv() now accepts a "prepend" parameter
  • improved reporting of collection error tracebacks
  • simplified multicall mechanism and plugin architecture,
    renamed some internal methods and argnames

1.0.0

  • more terse reporting try to show filesystem path relatively to current dir
  • improve xfail output a bit

1.0.0b9

  • cleanly handle and report final teardown of test setup
  • fix svn-1.6 compat issue with py.path.svnwc().versioned()
    (thanks Wouter Vanden Hove)
  • setup/teardown or collection problems now show as ERRORs
    or with big "E"'s in the progress lines. they are reported
    and counted separately.
  • dist-testing: properly handle test items that get locally
    collected but cannot be collected on the remote side - often
    due to platform/dependency reasons
  • simplified py.test.mark API - see keyword plugin documentation
  • integrate better with logging: capturing now by default captures
    test functions and their immediate setup/teardown in a single stream
  • capsys and capfd funcargs now have a readouterr() and a close() method
    (underlyingly py.io.StdCapture/FD objects are used which grew a
    readouterr() method as well to return snapshots of captured out/err)
  • make assert-reinterpretation work better with comparisons not
    returning bools (reported with numpy from thanks maciej fijalkowski)
  • reworked per-test output capturing into the pytest_iocapture.py plugin
    and thus removed capturing code from config object
  • item.repr_failure(excinfo) instead of item.repr_failure(excinfo, outerr)

1.0.0b8

  • pytest_unittest-plugin is now enabled by default
  • introduced pytest_keyboardinterrupt hook and
    refined pytest_sessionfinish hooked, added tests.
  • workaround a buggy logging module interaction ("closing already closed
    files"). Thanks to Sridhar Ratnakumar for triggering.
  • if plugins use "py.test.importorskip" for importing
    a dependency only a warning will be issued instead
    of exiting the testing process.
  • many improvements to docs:
    • refined funcargs doc , use the term "factory" instead of "provider"
    • added a new talk/tutorial doc page
    • better download page
    • better plugin docstrings
    • added new plugins page and automatic doc generation script
  • fixed teardown problem related to partially failing funcarg setups
    (thanks MrTopf for reporting), "pytest_runtest_teardown" is now
    always invoked even if the "pytest_runtest_setup" failed.
  • tweaked doctest output for docstrings in py modules,
    thanks Radomir.

1.0.0b7

  • renamed py.test.xfail back to py.test.mark.xfail to avoid
    two ways to decorate for xfail
  • re-added py.test.mark decorator for setting keywords on functions
    (it was actually documented so removing it was not nice)
  • remove scope-argument from request.addfinalizer() because
    request.cached_setup has the scope arg. TOOWTDI.
  • perform setup finalization before reporting failures
  • apply modified patches from Andreas Kloeckner to allow
    test functions to have no func_code (22) and to make
    "-k" and function keywords work (20)
  • apply patch from Daniel Peolzleithner (issue 23)
  • resolve issue 18, multiprocessing.Manager() and
    redirection clash
  • make name == "channelexec" for remote_exec code

1.0.0b3

  • plugin classes are removed: one now defines
    hooks directly in conftest.py or global pytest_*.py
    files.
  • added new pytest_namespace(config) hook that allows
    to inject helpers directly to the py.test.* namespace.
  • documented and refined many hooks
  • added new style of generative tests via
    pytest_generate_tests hook that integrates
    well with function arguments.

1.0.0b1

  • introduced new "funcarg" setup method,
    see doc/test/funcarg.txt
  • introduced plugin architecture and many
    new py.test plugins, see
    doc/test/plugins.txt
  • teardown_method is now guaranteed to get
    called after a test method has run.
  • new method: py.test.importorskip(mod,minversion)
    will either import or call py.test.skip()
  • completely revised internal py.test architecture
  • new py.process.ForkedFunc object allowing to
    fork execution of a function to a sub process
    and getting a result back.

XXX lots of things missing here XXX

0.9.2

  • refined installation and metadata, created new setup.py,
    now based on setuptools/ez_setup (thanks to Ralf Schmitt
    for his support).
  • improved the way of making py.* scripts available in
    windows environments, they are now added to the
    Scripts directory as ".cmd" files.
  • py.path.svnwc.status() now is more complete and
    uses xml output from the 'svn' command if available
    (Guido Wesdorp)
  • fix for py.path.svn* to work with svn 1.5
    (Chris Lamb)
  • fix path.relto(otherpath) method on windows to
    use normcase for checking if a path is relative.

    (follows the filenames:LINENO: MSG convention)
    (thanks to Osmo Salomaa)
  • fix to javascript-generation, "py.test --runbrowser"
    should work more reliably now
  • removed previously accidentally added
    py.test.broken and py.test.notimplemented helpers.
  • there now is a py.version attribute
