Due to the GitHub Actions weirdness (#8540 (comment)), is there a plan to release pytest with a fix before the real 3.10 beta (due 2021-05-03), or do you recommend we pin 3.10 to an alpha on GHA? Thank you! |
|
Good news, the GitHub Actions weirdness has been resolved and latest pytest is working with What happened: Something caused a premature Python-3.10.0b1.tgz to be released on the Python FTP servers (now removed): https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.0/Python-3.10.0b1.tgz. GitHub Actions' automation integrated this into More details: |

It's great that Actions has fixed their end of this (🎉), but unless we release a new version of pytest with #8540 soon we'll be broken again when the real 3.10beta1 is released 😅 |

16: Pin pytest to latest version 6.2.4 r=aragilar a=pyup-bot
This PR pins [pytest](https://pypi.org/project/pytest) to the latest release **6.2.4**.
<details>
<summary>Changelog</summary>
### 6.2.4
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `8539 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8539>`_: Fixed assertion rewriting on Python 3.10.
```
### 6.2.3
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `8414 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8414>`_: pytest used to create directories under ``/tmp`` with world-readable
permissions. This means that any user in the system was able to read
information written by tests in temporary directories (such as those created by
the ``tmp_path``/``tmpdir`` fixture). Now the directories are created with
private permissions.
pytest used to silenty use a pre-existing ``/tmp/pytest-of-<username>`` directory,
even if owned by another user. This means another user could pre-create such a
directory and gain control of another user's temporary directory. Now such a
condition results in an error.
```
### 6.2.2
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `8152 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8152>`_: Fixed "(<Skipped instance>)" being shown as a skip reason in the verbose test summary line when the reason is empty.
- `8249 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8249>`_: Fix the ``faulthandler`` plugin for occasions when running with ``twisted.logger`` and using ``pytest --capture=no``.
```
### 6.2.1
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7678 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7678>`_: Fixed bug where ``ImportPathMismatchError`` would be raised for files compiled in
the host and loaded later from an UNC mounted path (Windows).
- `8132 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8132>`_: Fixed regression in ``approx``: in 6.2.0 ``approx`` no longer raises
``TypeError`` when dealing with non-numeric types, falling back to normal comparison.
Before 6.2.0, array types like tf.DeviceArray fell through to the scalar case,
and happened to compare correctly to a scalar if they had only one element.
After 6.2.0, these types began failing, because they inherited neither from
standard Python number hierarchy nor from ``numpy.ndarray``.
``approx`` now converts arguments to ``numpy.ndarray`` if they expose the array
protocol and are not scalars. This treats array-like objects like numpy arrays,
regardless of size.
```
### 6.2.0
```
=========================
Breaking Changes
----------------
- `7808 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7808>`_: pytest now supports python3.6+ only.
Deprecations
------------
- `7469 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7469>`_: Directly constructing/calling the following classes/functions is now deprecated:
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.for_config()``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.clear_cache()``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.cache_dir_from_config()``
- ``_pytest.capture.CaptureFixture``
- ``_pytest.fixtures.FixtureRequest``
- ``_pytest.fixtures.SubRequest``
- ``_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture``
- ``_pytest.pytester.Pytester``
- ``_pytest.pytester.Testdir``
- ``_pytest.recwarn.WarningsRecorder``
- ``_pytest.recwarn.WarningsChecker``
- ``_pytest.tmpdir.TempPathFactory``
- ``_pytest.tmpdir.TempdirFactory``
These have always been considered private, but now issue a deprecation warning, which may become a hard error in pytest 7.0.0.
- `7530 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7530>`_: The ``--strict`` command-line option has been deprecated, use ``--strict-markers`` instead.
We have plans to maybe in the future to reintroduce ``--strict`` and make it an encompassing flag for all strictness
related options (``--strict-markers`` and ``--strict-config`` at the moment, more might be introduced in the future).
- `7988 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7988>`_: The ``pytest.yield_fixture`` decorator/function is now deprecated. Use :func:`pytest.fixture` instead.
``yield_fixture`` has been an alias for ``fixture`` for a very long time, so can be search/replaced safely.
Features
--------
- `5299 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5299>`_: pytest now warns about unraisable exceptions and unhandled thread exceptions that occur in tests on Python>=3.8.
See :ref:`unraisable` for more information.
- `7425 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7425>`_: New :fixture:`pytester` fixture, which is identical to :fixture:`testdir` but its methods return :class:`pathlib.Path` when appropriate instead of ``py.path.local``.
This is part of the movement to use :class:`pathlib.Path` objects internally, in order to remove the dependency to ``py`` in the future.
Internally, the old :class:`Testdir <_pytest.pytester.Testdir>` is now a thin wrapper around :class:`Pytester <_pytest.pytester.Pytester>`, preserving the old interface.
- `7695 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7695>`_: A new hook was added, `pytest_markeval_namespace` which should return a dictionary.
This dictionary will be used to augment the "global" variables available to evaluate skipif/xfail/xpass markers.
Pseudo example
``conftest.py``:
.. code-block:: python
def pytest_markeval_namespace():
return {"color": "red"}
``test_func.py``:
.. code-block:: python
pytest.mark.skipif("color == 'blue'", reason="Color is not red")
def test_func():
assert False
- `8006 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8006>`_: It is now possible to construct a :class:`~pytest.MonkeyPatch` object directly as ``pytest.MonkeyPatch()``,
in cases when the :fixture:`monkeypatch` fixture cannot be used. Previously some users imported it
from the private `_pytest.monkeypatch.MonkeyPatch` namespace.
Additionally, :meth:`MonkeyPatch.context <pytest.MonkeyPatch.context>` is now a classmethod,
and can be used as ``with MonkeyPatch.context() as mp: ...``. This is the recommended way to use
``MonkeyPatch`` directly, since unlike the ``monkeypatch`` fixture, an instance created directly
is not ``undo()``-ed automatically.
Improvements
------------
- `1265 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1265>`_: Added an ``__str__`` implementation to the :class:`~pytest.pytester.LineMatcher` class which is returned from ``pytester.run_pytest().stdout`` and similar. It returns the entire output, like the existing ``str()`` method.
- `2044 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2044>`_: Verbose mode now shows the reason that a test was skipped in the test's terminal line after the "SKIPPED", "XFAIL" or "XPASS".
- `7469 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7469>`_ The types of builtin pytest fixtures are now exported so they may be used in type annotations of test functions.
The newly-exported types are:
- ``pytest.FixtureRequest`` for the :fixture:`request` fixture.
- ``pytest.Cache`` for the :fixture:`cache` fixture.
- ``pytest.CaptureFixture[str]`` for the :fixture:`capfd` and :fixture:`capsys` fixtures.
- ``pytest.CaptureFixture[bytes]`` for the :fixture:`capfdbinary` and :fixture:`capsysbinary` fixtures.
- ``pytest.LogCaptureFixture`` for the :fixture:`caplog` fixture.
- ``pytest.Pytester`` for the :fixture:`pytester` fixture.
- ``pytest.Testdir`` for the :fixture:`testdir` fixture.
- ``pytest.TempdirFactory`` for the :fixture:`tmpdir_factory` fixture.
- ``pytest.TempPathFactory`` for the :fixture:`tmp_path_factory` fixture.
- ``pytest.MonkeyPatch`` for the :fixture:`monkeypatch` fixture.
- ``pytest.WarningsRecorder`` for the :fixture:`recwarn` fixture.
Constructing them is not supported (except for `MonkeyPatch`); they are only meant for use in type annotations.
Doing so will emit a deprecation warning, and may become a hard-error in pytest 7.0.
Subclassing them is also not supported. This is not currently enforced at runtime, but is detected by type-checkers such as mypy.
- `7527 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7527>`_: When a comparison between :func:`namedtuple <collections.namedtuple>` instances of the same type fails, pytest now shows the differing field names (possibly nested) instead of their indexes.
- `7615 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7615>`_: :meth:`Node.warn <_pytest.nodes.Node.warn>` now permits any subclass of :class:`Warning`, not just :class:`PytestWarning <pytest.PytestWarning>`.
- `7701 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7701>`_: Improved reporting when using ``--collected-only``. It will now show the number of collected tests in the summary stats.
- `7710 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7710>`_: Use strict equality comparison for non-numeric types in :func:`pytest.approx` instead of
raising :class:`TypeError`.
This was the undocumented behavior before 3.7, but is now officially a supported feature.
- `7938 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7938>`_: New ``--sw-skip`` argument which is a shorthand for ``--stepwise-skip``.
- `8023 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8023>`_: Added ``'node_modules'`` to default value for :confval:`norecursedirs`.
- `8032 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8032>`_: :meth:`doClassCleanups <unittest.TestCase.doClassCleanups>` (introduced in :mod:`unittest` in Python and 3.8) is now called appropriately.
Bug Fixes
---------
- `4824 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4824>`_: Fixed quadratic behavior and improved performance of collection of items using autouse fixtures and xunit fixtures.
- `7758 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7758>`_: Fixed an issue where some files in packages are getting lost from ``--lf`` even though they contain tests that failed. Regressed in pytest 5.4.0.
- `7911 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7911>`_: Directories created by by :fixture:`tmp_path` and :fixture:`tmpdir` are now considered stale after 3 days without modification (previous value was 3 hours) to avoid deleting directories still in use in long running test suites.
- `7913 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7913>`_: Fixed a crash or hang in :meth:`pytester.spawn <_pytest.pytester.Pytester.spawn>` when the :mod:`readline` module is involved.
- `7951 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7951>`_: Fixed handling of recursive symlinks when collecting tests.
- `7981 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7981>`_: Fixed symlinked directories not being followed during collection. Regressed in pytest 6.1.0.
- `8016 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8016>`_: Fixed only one doctest being collected when using ``pytest --doctest-modules path/to/an/__init__.py``.
Improved Documentation
----------------------
- `7429 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7429>`_: Add more information and use cases about skipping doctests.
- `7780 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7780>`_: Classes which should not be inherited from are now marked ``final class`` in the API reference.
- `7872 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7872>`_: ``_pytest.config.argparsing.Parser.addini()`` accepts explicit ``None`` and ``"string"``.
- `7878 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7878>`_: In pull request section, ask to commit after editing changelog and authors file.
Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------
- `7802 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7802>`_: The ``attrs`` dependency requirement is now >=19.2.0 instead of >=17.4.0.
- `8014 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8014>`_: `.pyc` files created by pytest's assertion rewriting now conform to the newer PEP-552 format on Python>=3.7.
(These files are internal and only interpreted by pytest itself.)
```
### 6.1.2
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7758 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7758>`_: Fixed an issue where some files in packages are getting lost from ``--lf`` even though they contain tests that failed. Regressed in pytest 5.4.0.
- `7911 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7911>`_: Directories created by `tmpdir` are now considered stale after 3 days without modification (previous value was 3 hours) to avoid deleting directories still in use in long running test suites.
Improved Documentation
----------------------
- `7815 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7815>`_: Improve deprecation warning message for ``pytest._fillfuncargs()``.
```
### 6.1.1
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7807 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7807>`_: Fixed regression in pytest 6.1.0 causing incorrect rootdir to be determined in some non-trivial cases where parent directories have config files as well.
- `7814 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7814>`_: Fixed crash in header reporting when :confval:`testpaths` is used and contains absolute paths (regression in 6.1.0).
```
### 6.1.0
```
=========================
Breaking Changes
----------------
- `5585 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5585>`_: As per our policy, the following features which have been deprecated in the 5.X series are now
removed:
* The ``funcargnames`` read-only property of ``FixtureRequest``, ``Metafunc``, and ``Function`` classes. Use ``fixturenames`` attribute.
* ``pytest.fixture`` no longer supports positional arguments, pass all arguments by keyword instead.
* Direct construction of ``Node`` subclasses now raise an error, use ``from_parent`` instead.
* The default value for ``junit_family`` has changed to ``xunit2``. If you require the old format, add ``junit_family=xunit1`` to your configuration file.
* The ``TerminalReporter`` no longer has a ``writer`` attribute. Plugin authors may use the public functions of the ``TerminalReporter`` instead of accessing the ``TerminalWriter`` object directly.
* The ``--result-log`` option has been removed. Users are recommended to use the `pytest-reportlog <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-reportlog>`__ plugin instead.
For more information consult
`Deprecations and Removals <https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/deprecations.html>`__ in the docs.
Deprecations
------------
- `6981 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6981>`_: The ``pytest.collect`` module is deprecated: all its names can be imported from ``pytest`` directly.
- `7097 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7097>`_: The ``pytest._fillfuncargs`` function is deprecated. This function was kept
for backward compatibility with an older plugin.
It's functionality is not meant to be used directly, but if you must replace
it, use `function._request._fillfixtures()` instead, though note this is not
a public API and may break in the future.
- `7210 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7210>`_: The special ``-k '-expr'`` syntax to ``-k`` is deprecated. Use ``-k 'not expr'``
instead.
The special ``-k 'expr:'`` syntax to ``-k`` is deprecated. Please open an issue
if you use this and want a replacement.
- `7255 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7255>`_: The :func:`pytest_warning_captured <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_warning_captured>` hook is deprecated in favor
of :func:`pytest_warning_recorded <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_warning_recorded>`, and will be removed in a future version.
- `7648 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7648>`_: The ``gethookproxy()`` and ``isinitpath()`` methods of ``FSCollector`` and ``Package`` are deprecated;
use ``self.session.gethookproxy()`` and ``self.session.isinitpath()`` instead.
This should work on all pytest versions.
Features
--------
- `7667 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7667>`_: New ``--durations-min`` command-line flag controls the minimal duration for inclusion in the slowest list of tests shown by ``--durations``. Previously this was hard-coded to ``0.005s``.
Improvements
------------
- `6681 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6681>`_: Internal pytest warnings issued during the early stages of initialization are now properly handled and can filtered through :confval:`filterwarnings` or ``--pythonwarnings/-W``.
This also fixes a number of long standing issues: `2891 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2891>`__, `#7620 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7620>`__, `#7426 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7426>`__.
- `7572 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7572>`_: When a plugin listed in ``required_plugins`` is missing or an unknown config key is used with ``--strict-config``, a simple error message is now shown instead of a stacktrace.
- `7685 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7685>`_: Added two new attributes :attr:`rootpath <_pytest.config.Config.rootpath>` and :attr:`inipath <_pytest.config.Config.inipath>` to :class:`Config <_pytest.config.Config>`.
These attributes are :class:`pathlib.Path` versions of the existing :attr:`rootdir <_pytest.config.Config.rootdir>` and :attr:`inifile <_pytest.config.Config.inifile>` attributes,
and should be preferred over them when possible.
- `7780 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7780>`_: Public classes which are not designed to be inherited from are now marked `final <https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.final>`_.
Code which inherits from these classes will trigger a type-checking (e.g. mypy) error, but will still work in runtime.
Currently the ``final`` designation does not appear in the API Reference but hopefully will in the future.
Bug Fixes
---------
- `1953 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1953>`_: Fixed error when overwriting a parametrized fixture, while also reusing the super fixture value.
.. code-block:: python
conftest.py
import pytest
pytest.fixture(params=[1, 2])
def foo(request):
return request.param
test_foo.py
import pytest
pytest.fixture
def foo(foo):
return foo * 2
- `4984 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4984>`_: Fixed an internal error crash with ``IndexError: list index out of range`` when
collecting a module which starts with a decorated function, the decorator
raises, and assertion rewriting is enabled.
- `7591 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7591>`_: pylint shouldn't complain anymore about unimplemented abstract methods when inheriting from :ref:`File <non-python tests>`.
- `7628 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7628>`_: Fixed test collection when a full path without a drive letter was passed to pytest on Windows (for example ``\projects\tests\test.py`` instead of ``c:\projects\tests\pytest.py``).
- `7638 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7638>`_: Fix handling of command-line options that appear as paths but trigger an OS-level syntax error on Windows, such as the options used internally by ``pytest-xdist``.
- `7742 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7742>`_: Fixed INTERNALERROR when accessing locals / globals with faulty ``exec``.
Improved Documentation
----------------------
- `1477 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1477>`_: Removed faq.rst and its reference in contents.rst.
Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------
- `7536 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7536>`_: The internal ``junitxml`` plugin has rewritten to use ``xml.etree.ElementTree``.
The order of attributes in XML elements might differ. Some unneeded escaping is
no longer performed.
- `7587 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7587>`_: The dependency on the ``more-itertools`` package has been removed.
- `7631 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7631>`_: The result type of :meth:`capfd.readouterr() <_pytest.capture.CaptureFixture.readouterr>` (and similar) is no longer a namedtuple,
but should behave like one in all respects. This was done for technical reasons.
- `7671 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7671>`_: When collecting tests, pytest finds test classes and functions by examining the
attributes of python objects (modules, classes and instances). To speed up this
process, pytest now ignores builtin attributes (like ``__class__``,
``__delattr__`` and ``__new__``) without consulting the :confval:`python_classes` and
:confval:`python_functions` configuration options and without passing them to plugins
using the :func:`pytest_pycollect_makeitem <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_pycollect_makeitem>` hook.
```
### 6.0.2
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7148 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7148>`_: Fixed ``--log-cli`` potentially causing unrelated ``print`` output to be swallowed.
- `7672 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7672>`_: Fixed log-capturing level restored incorrectly if ``caplog.set_level`` is called more than once.
- `7686 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7686>`_: Fixed `NotSetType.token` being used as the parameter ID when the parametrization list is empty.
Regressed in pytest 6.0.0.
- `7707 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7707>`_: Fix internal error when handling some exceptions that contain multiple lines or the style uses multiple lines (``--tb=line`` for example).
```
### 6.0.1
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7394 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7394>`_: Passing an empty ``help`` value to ``Parser.add_option`` is now accepted instead of crashing when running ``pytest --help``.
Passing ``None`` raises a more informative ``TypeError``.
- `7558 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7558>`_: Fix pylint ``not-callable`` lint on ``pytest.mark.parametrize()`` and the other builtin marks:
``skip``, ``skipif``, ``xfail``, ``usefixtures``, ``filterwarnings``.
- `7559 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7559>`_: Fix regression in plugins using ``TestReport.longreprtext`` (such as ``pytest-html``) when ``TestReport.longrepr`` is not a string.
- `7569 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7569>`_: Fix logging capture handler's level not reset on teardown after a call to ``caplog.set_level()``.
```
### 6.0.0
```
=========================
(**Please see the full set of changes for this release also in the 6.0.0rc1 notes below**)
Breaking Changes
----------------
- `5584 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5584>`_: **PytestDeprecationWarning are now errors by default.**
Following our plan to remove deprecated features with as little disruption as
possible, all warnings of type ``PytestDeprecationWarning`` now generate errors
instead of warning messages.
**The affected features will be effectively removed in pytest 6.1**, so please consult the
`Deprecations and Removals <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/deprecations.html>`__
section in the docs for directions on how to update existing code.
In the pytest ``6.0.X`` series, it is possible to change the errors back into warnings as a
stopgap measure by adding this to your ``pytest.ini`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
[pytest]
filterwarnings =
ignore::pytest.PytestDeprecationWarning
But this will stop working when pytest ``6.1`` is released.
**If you have concerns** about the removal of a specific feature, please add a
comment to `5584 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5584>`__.
- `7472 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7472>`_: The ``exec_()`` and ``is_true()`` methods of ``_pytest._code.Frame`` have been removed.
Features

- `7489 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7489>`_: The :func:`pytest.raises` function has a clearer error message when ``match`` equals the obtained string but is not a regex match. In this case it is suggested to escape the regex.
Bug Fixes
---------
- `7392 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7392>`_: Fix the reported location of tests skipped with ``pytest.mark.skip`` when ``--runxfail`` is used.

```
### 6.0.0rc1
```
============================
Breaking Changes
----------------
- `1316 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1316>`_: ``TestReport.longrepr`` is now always an instance of ``ReprExceptionInfo``. Previously it was a ``str`` when a test failed with ``pytest.fail(..., pytrace=False)``.
- `5965 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5965>`_: symlinks are no longer resolved during collection and matching `conftest.py` files with test file paths.
Resolving symlinks for the current directory and during collection was introduced as a bugfix in 3.9.0, but it actually is a new feature which had unfortunate consequences in Windows and surprising results in other platforms.
The team decided to step back on resolving symlinks at all, planning to review this in the future with a more solid solution (see discussion in
`6523 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/pull/6523>`__ for details).
This might break test suites which made use of this feature; the fix is to create a symlink
for the entire test tree, and not only to partial files/tress as it was possible previously.
- `6505 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6505>`_: ``Testdir.run().parseoutcomes()`` now always returns the parsed nouns in plural form.
Originally ``parseoutcomes()`` would always returns the nouns in plural form, but a change
meant to improve the terminal summary by using singular form single items (``1 warning`` or ``1 error``)
caused an unintended regression by changing the keys returned by ``parseoutcomes()``.
Now the API guarantees to always return the plural form, so calls like this:
.. code-block:: python
result = testdir.runpytest()
result.assert_outcomes(error=1)
Need to be changed to:
.. code-block:: python
result = testdir.runpytest()
result.assert_outcomes(errors=1)
- `6903 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6903>`_: The ``os.dup()`` function is now assumed to exist. We are not aware of any
supported Python 3 implementations which do not provide it.
- `7040 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7040>`_: ``-k`` no longer matches against the names of the directories outside the test session root.
Also, ``pytest.Package.name`` is now just the name of the directory containing the package's
``__init__.py`` file, instead of the full path. This is consistent with how the other nodes
are named, and also one of the reasons why ``-k`` would match against any directory containing
the test suite.
- `7122 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7122>`_: Expressions given to the ``-m`` and ``-k`` options are no longer evaluated using Python's :func:`eval`.
The format supports ``or``, ``and``, ``not``, parenthesis and general identifiers to match against.
Python constants, keywords or other operators are no longer evaluated differently.
- `7135 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7135>`_: Pytest now uses its own ``TerminalWriter`` class instead of using the one from the ``py`` library.
Plugins generally access this class through ``TerminalReporter.writer``, ``TerminalReporter.write()``
(and similar methods), or ``_pytest.config.create_terminal_writer()``.
The following breaking changes were made:
- Output (``write()`` method and others) no longer flush implicitly; the flushing behavior
of the underlying file is respected. To flush explicitly (for example, if you
want output to be shown before an end-of-line is printed), use ``write(flush=True)`` or
``terminal_writer.flush()``.
- Explicit Windows console support was removed, delegated to the colorama library.
- Support for writing ``bytes`` was removed.
- The ``reline`` method and ``chars_on_current_line`` property were removed.
- The ``stringio`` and ``encoding`` arguments was removed.
- Support for passing a callable instead of a file was removed.
- `7224 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7224>`_: The `item.catch_log_handler` and `item.catch_log_handlers` attributes, set by the
logging plugin and never meant to be public, are no longer available.
The deprecated ``--no-print-logs`` option and ``log_print`` ini option are removed. Use ``--show-capture`` instead.
- `7226 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7226>`_: Removed the unused ``args`` parameter from ``pytest.Function.__init__``.
- `7418 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7418>`_: Removed the `pytest_doctest_prepare_content` hook specification. This hook
hasn't been triggered by pytest for at least 10 years.
- `7438 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7438>`_: Some changes were made to the internal ``_pytest._code.source``, listed here
for the benefit of plugin authors who may be using it:
- The ``deindent`` argument to ``Source()`` has been removed, now it is always true.
- Support for zero or multiple arguments to ``Source()`` has been removed.
- Support for comparing ``Source`` with an ``str`` has been removed.
- The methods ``Source.isparseable()`` and ``Source.putaround()`` have been removed.
- The method ``Source.compile()`` and function ``_pytest._code.compile()`` have
been removed; use plain ``compile()`` instead.
- The function ``_pytest._code.source.getsource()`` has been removed; use
``Source()`` directly instead.
Deprecations
------------
- `7210 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7210>`_: The special ``-k '-expr'`` syntax to ``-k`` is deprecated. Use ``-k 'not expr'``
instead.
The special ``-k 'expr:'`` syntax to ``-k`` is deprecated. Please open an issue
if you use this and want a replacement.
- `4049 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4049>`_: ``pytest_warning_captured`` is deprecated in favor of the ``pytest_warning_recorded`` hook.
Features
--------
- `1556 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1556>`_: pytest now supports ``pyproject.toml`` files for configuration.
The configuration options is similar to the one available in other formats, but must be defined
in a ``[tool.pytest.ini_options]`` table to be picked up by pytest:
.. code-block:: toml
pyproject.toml
[tool.pytest.ini_options]
minversion = "6.0"
addopts = "-ra -q"
testpaths = [
"tests",
"integration",
]
More information can be found `in the docs <https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/customize.html#configuration-file-formats>`__.
- `3342 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3342>`_: pytest now includes inline type annotations and exposes them to user programs.
Most of the user-facing API is covered, as well as internal code.
If you are running a type checker such as mypy on your tests, you may start
noticing type errors indicating incorrect usage. If you run into an error that
you believe to be incorrect, please let us know in an issue.
The types were developed against mypy version 0.780. Versions before 0.750
are known not to work. We recommend using the latest version. Other type
checkers may work as well, but they are not officially verified to work by
pytest yet.
- `4049 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4049>`_: Introduced a new hook named `pytest_warning_recorded` to convey information about warnings captured by the internal `pytest` warnings plugin.
This hook is meant to replace `pytest_warning_captured`, which is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
- `6471 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6471>`_: New command-line flags:
* `--no-header`: disables the initial header, including platform, version, and plugins.
* `--no-summary`: disables the final test summary, including warnings.
- `6856 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6856>`_: A warning is now shown when an unknown key is read from a config INI file.
The `--strict-config` flag has been added to treat these warnings as errors.
- `6906 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6906>`_: Added `--code-highlight` command line option to enable/disable code highlighting in terminal output.
- `7245 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7245>`_: New ``--import-mode=importlib`` option that uses `importlib <https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html>`__ to import test modules.
Traditionally pytest used ``__import__`` while changing ``sys.path`` to import test modules (which
also changes ``sys.modules`` as a side-effect), which works but has a number of drawbacks, like requiring test modules
that don't live in packages to have unique names (as they need to reside under a unique name in ``sys.modules``).
``--import-mode=importlib`` uses more fine grained import mechanisms from ``importlib`` which don't
require pytest to change ``sys.path`` or ``sys.modules`` at all, eliminating much of the drawbacks
of the previous mode.
We intend to make ``--import-mode=importlib`` the default in future versions, so users are encouraged
to try the new mode and provide feedback (both positive or negative) in issue `7245 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7245>`__.
You can read more about this option in `the documentation <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/pythonpath.html#import-modes>`__.
- `7305 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7305>`_: New ``required_plugins`` configuration option allows the user to specify a list of plugins, including version information, that are required for pytest to run. An error is raised if any required plugins are not found when running pytest.
Improvements
------------
- `4375 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4375>`_: The ``pytest`` command now suppresses the ``BrokenPipeError`` error message that
is printed to stderr when the output of ``pytest`` is piped and and the pipe is
closed by the piped-to program (common examples are ``less`` and ``head``).
- `4391 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4391>`_: Improved precision of test durations measurement. ``CallInfo`` items now have a new ``<CallInfo>.duration`` attribute, created using ``time.perf_counter()``. This attribute is used to fill the ``<TestReport>.duration`` attribute, which is more accurate than the previous ``<CallInfo>.stop - <CallInfo>.start`` (as these are based on ``time.time()``).
- `4675 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4675>`_: Rich comparison for dataclasses and `attrs`-classes is now recursive.
- `6285 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6285>`_: Exposed the `pytest.FixtureLookupError` exception which is raised by `request.getfixturevalue()`
(where `request` is a `FixtureRequest` fixture) when a fixture with the given name cannot be returned.
- `6433 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6433>`_: If an error is encountered while formatting the message in a logging call, for
example ``logging.warning("oh no!: %s: %s", "first")`` (a second argument is
missing), pytest now propagates the error, likely causing the test to fail.
Previously, such a mistake would cause an error to be printed to stderr, which
is not displayed by default for passing tests. This change makes the mistake
visible during testing.
You may supress this behavior temporarily or permanently by setting
``logging.raiseExceptions = False``.
- `6817 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6817>`_: Explicit new-lines in help texts of command-line options are preserved, allowing plugins better control
of the help displayed to users.
- `6940 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6940>`_: When using the ``--duration`` option, the terminal message output is now more precise about the number and duration of hidden items.
- `6991 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6991>`_: Collected files are displayed after any reports from hooks, e.g. the status from ``--lf``.
- `7091 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7091>`_: When ``fd`` capturing is used, through ``--capture=fd`` or the ``capfd`` and
``capfdbinary`` fixtures, and the file descriptor (0, 1, 2) cannot be
duplicated, FD capturing is still performed. Previously, direct writes to the
file descriptors would fail or be lost in this case.
- `7119 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7119>`_: Exit with an error if the ``--basetemp`` argument is empty, is the current working directory or is one of the parent directories.
This is done to protect against accidental data loss, as any directory passed to this argument is cleared.
- `7128 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7128>`_: `pytest --version` now displays just the pytest version, while `pytest --version --version` displays more verbose information including plugins. This is more consistent with how other tools show `--version`.
- `7133 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7133>`_: :meth:`caplog.set_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.set_level>` will now override any :confval:`log_level` set via the CLI or configuration file.
- `7159 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7159>`_: :meth:`caplog.set_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.set_level>` and :meth:`caplog.at_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.at_level>` no longer affect
the level of logs that are shown in the *Captured log report* report section.
- `7348 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7348>`_: Improve recursive diff report for comparison asserts on dataclasses / attrs.
- `7385 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7385>`_: ``--junitxml`` now includes the exception cause in the ``message`` XML attribute for failures during setup and teardown.
Previously:
.. code-block:: xml
<error message="test setup failure">
Now:
.. code-block:: xml
<error message="failed on setup with &quot;ValueError: Some error during setup&quot;">

- `6909 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6909>`_: Revert the change introduced by `#6330 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/pull/6330>`_, which required all arguments to ``pytest.mark.parametrize`` to be explicitly defined in the function signature.
The intention of the original change was to remove what was expected to be an unintended/surprising behavior, but it turns out many people relied on it, so the restriction has been reverted.

- `6956 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6956>`_: Prevent pytest from printing `ConftestImportFailure` traceback to stdout.
- `6991 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6991>`_: Fix regressions with `--lf` filtering too much since pytest 5.4.
- `6992 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6992>`_: Revert "tmpdir: clean up indirection via config for factories" `#6767 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6767>`_ as it breaks pytest-xdist.
- `7061 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7061>`_: When a yielding fixture fails to yield a value, report a test setup error instead of crashing.
- `7076 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7076>`_: The path of file skipped by ``pytest.mark.skip`` in the SKIPPED report is now relative to invocation directory. Previously it was relative to root directory.
- `7110 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7110>`_: Fixed regression: ``asyncbase.TestCase`` tests are executed correctly again.
- `7126 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7126>`_: ``--setup-show`` now doesn't raise an error when a bytes value is used as a ``parametrize``
parameter when Python is called with the ``-bb`` flag.

- `7180 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7180>`_: Fix ``_is_setup_py`` for files encoded differently than locale.
- `7215 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7215>`_: Fix regression where running with ``--pdb`` would call :meth:`unittest.TestCase.tearDown` for skipped tests.
- `7253 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7253>`_: When using ``pytest.fixture`` on a function directly, as in ``pytest.fixture(func)``,
if the ``autouse`` or ``params`` arguments are also passed, the function is no longer
ignored, but is marked as a fixture.
- `7360 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7360>`_: Fix possibly incorrect evaluation of string expressions passed to ``pytest.mark.skipif`` and ``pytest.mark.xfail``,
in rare circumstances where the exact same string is used but refers to different global values.
- `7383 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7383>`_: Fixed exception causes all over the codebase, i.e. use `raise new_exception from old_exception` when wrapping an exception.

- `7233 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7233>`_: Add a note about ``--strict`` and ``--strict-markers`` and the preference for the latter one.
- `7345 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7345>`_: Explain indirect parametrization and markers for fixtures.
Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------
- `7035 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7035>`_: The ``originalname`` attribute of ``_pytest.python.Function`` now defaults to ``name`` if not
provided explicitly, and is always set.
- `7264 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7264>`_: The dependency on the ``wcwidth`` package has been removed.
- `7291 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7291>`_: Replaced ``py.iniconfig`` with `iniconfig <https://pypi.org/project/iniconfig/>`__.

### 5.4.0
```
=========================
Breaking Changes
----------------
- `6316 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6316>`_: Matching of ``-k EXPRESSION`` to test names is now case-insensitive.
- `6443 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6443>`_: Plugins specified with ``-p`` are now loaded after internal plugins, which results in their hooks being called *before* the internal ones.
This makes the ``-p`` behavior consistent with ``PYTEST_PLUGINS``.
- `6637 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6637>`_: Removed the long-deprecated ``pytest_itemstart`` hook.
This hook has been marked as deprecated and not been even called by pytest for over 10 years now.
- `6673 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6673>`_: Reversed / fix meaning of "+/-" in error diffs. "-" means that sth. expected is missing in the result and "+" means that there are unexpected extras in the result.
- `6737 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6737>`_: The ``cached_result`` attribute of ``FixtureDef`` is now set to ``None`` when
the result is unavailable, instead of being deleted.
If your plugin performs checks like ``hasattr(fixturedef, 'cached_result')``,
for example in a ``pytest_fixture_post_finalizer`` hook implementation, replace
it with ``fixturedef.cached_result is not None``. If you ``del`` the attribute,
set it to ``None`` instead.
Deprecations
------------
- `3238 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3238>`_: Option ``--no-print-logs`` is deprecated and meant to be removed in a future release. If you use ``--no-print-logs``, please try out ``--show-capture`` and
provide feedback.
``--show-capture`` command-line option was added in ``pytest 3.5.0`` and allows to specify how to
display captured output when tests fail: ``no``, ``stdout``, ``stderr``, ``log`` or ``all`` (the default).
- `571 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/571>`_: Deprecate the unused/broken `pytest_collect_directory` hook.
It was misaligned since the removal of the ``Directory`` collector in 2010
and incorrect/unusable as soon as collection was split from test execution.
- `5975 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5975>`_: Deprecate using direct constructors for ``Nodes``.
Instead they are now constructed via ``Node.from_parent``.
This transitional mechanism enables us to untangle the very intensely
entangled ``Node`` relationships by enforcing more controlled creation/configuration patterns.
As part of this change, session/config are already disallowed parameters and as we work on the details we might need disallow a few more as well.
Subclasses are expected to use `super().from_parent` if they intend to expand the creation of `Nodes`.
- `6779 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6779>`_: The ``TerminalReporter.writer`` attribute has been deprecated and should no longer be used. This
was inadvertently exposed as part of the public API of that plugin and ties it too much
with ``py.io.TerminalWriter``.
Features
--------
- `4597 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4597>`_: New :ref:`--capture=tee-sys <capture-method>` option to allow both live printing and capturing of test output.
- `5712 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5712>`_: Now all arguments to ``pytest.mark.parametrize`` need to be explicitly declared in the function signature or via ``indirect``.
Previously it was possible to omit an argument if a fixture with the same name existed, which was just an accident of implementation and was not meant to be a part of the API.
- `6454 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6454>`_: Changed default for `-r` to `fE`, which displays failures and errors in the :ref:`short test summary <pytest.detailed_failed_tests_usage>`. `-rN` can be used to disable it (the old behavior).
- `6469 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6469>`_: New options have been added to the :confval:`junit_logging` option: ``log``, ``out-err``, and ``all``.
- `6834 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6834>`_: Excess warning summaries are now collapsed per file to ensure readable display of warning summaries.
Improvements
------------
- `1857 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1857>`_: ``pytest.mark.parametrize`` accepts integers for ``ids`` again, converting it to strings.
- `449 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/449>`_: Use "yellow" main color with any XPASSED tests.
- `4639 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4639>`_: Revert "A warning is now issued when assertions are made for ``None``".
The warning proved to be less useful than initially expected and had quite a
few false positive cases.
- `5686 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5686>`_: ``tmpdir_factory.mktemp`` now fails when given absolute and non-normalized paths.
- `5984 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5984>`_: The ``pytest_warning_captured`` hook now receives a ``location`` parameter with the code location that generated the warning.
- `6213 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6213>`_: pytester: the ``testdir`` fixture respects environment settings from the ``monkeypatch`` fixture for inner runs.
- `6247 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6247>`_: ``--fulltrace`` is honored with collection errors.
- `6384 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6384>`_: Make `--showlocals` work also with `--tb=short`.
- `6653 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6653>`_: Add support for matching lines consecutively with :attr:`LineMatcher <_pytest.pytester.LineMatcher>`'s :func:`~_pytest.pytester.LineMatcher.fnmatch_lines` and :func:`~_pytest.pytester.LineMatcher.re_match_lines`.
- `6658 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6658>`_: Code is now highlighted in tracebacks when ``pygments`` is installed.
Users are encouraged to install ``pygments`` into their environment and provide feedback, because
the plan is to make ``pygments`` a regular dependency in the future.
- `6795 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6795>`_: Import usage error message with invalid `-o` option.
- `759 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/759>`_: ``pytest.mark.parametrize`` supports iterators and generators for ``ids``.
Bug Fixes
---------
- `310 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/310>`_: Add support for calling `pytest.xfail()` and `pytest.importorskip()` with doctests.
- `3823 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3823>`_: ``--trace`` now works with unittests.
- `4445 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4445>`_: Fixed some warning reports produced by pytest to point to the correct location of the warning in the user's code.
- `5301 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5301>`_: Fix ``--last-failed`` to collect new tests from files with known failures.
- `5928 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5928>`_: Report ``PytestUnknownMarkWarning`` at the level of the user's code, not ``pytest``'s.
- `5991 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5991>`_: Fix interaction with ``--pdb`` and unittests: do not use unittest's ``TestCase.debug()``.
- `6334 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6334>`_: Fix summary entries appearing twice when ``f/F`` and ``s/S`` report chars were used at the same time in the ``-r`` command-line option (for example ``-rFf``).
The upper case variants were never documented and the preferred form should be the lower case.
- `6409 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6409>`_: Fallback to green (instead of yellow) for non-last items without previous passes with colored terminal progress indicator.
- `6454 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6454>`_: `--disable-warnings` is honored with `-ra` and `-rA`.
- `6497 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6497>`_: Fix bug in the comparison of request key with cached key in fixture.
A construct ``if key == cached_key:`` can fail either because ``==`` is explicitly disallowed, or for, e.g., NumPy arrays, where the result of ``a == b`` cannot generally be converted to `bool`.
The implemented fix replaces `==` with ``is``.
- `6557 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6557>`_: Make capture output streams ``.write()`` method return the same return value from original streams.
- `6566 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6566>`_: Fix ``EncodedFile.writelines`` to call the underlying buffer's ``writelines`` method.
- `6575 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6575>`_: Fix internal crash when ``faulthandler`` starts initialized
(for example with ``PYTHONFAULTHANDLER=1`` environment variable set) and ``faulthandler_timeout`` defined
in the configuration file.
- `6597 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6597>`_: Fix node ids which contain a parametrized empty-string variable.
- `6646 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6646>`_: Assertion rewriting hooks are (re)stored for the current item, which fixes them being still used after e.g. pytester's :func:`testdir.runpytest <_pytest.pytester.Testdir.runpytest>` etc.
- `6660 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6660>`_: :py:func:`pytest.exit` is handled when emitted from the :func:`pytest_sessionfinish <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_sessionfinish>` hook. This includes quitting from a debugger.
- `6752 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6752>`_: When :py:func:`pytest.raises` is used as a function (as opposed to a context manager),
a `match` keyword argument is now passed through to the tested function. Previously
it was swallowed and ignored (regression in pytest 5.1.0).
- `6801 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6801>`_: Do not display empty lines inbetween traceback for unexpected exceptions with doctests.
- `6802 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6802>`_: The :fixture:`testdir fixture <testdir>` works within doctests now.
Improved Documentation
----------------------
- `6696 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6696>`_: Add list of fixtures to start of fixture chapter.
- `6742 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6742>`_: Expand first sentence on fixtures into a paragraph.

### 5.3.4
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `6496 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6496>`_: Revert `#6436 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6436>`__: unfortunately this change has caused a number of regressions in many suites,
so the team decided to revert this change and make a new release while we continue to look for a solution.
```
### 5.3.3
```
=========================
Bug Fixes
---------
- `2780 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2780>`_: Captured output during teardown is shown with ``-rP``.

``multiprocessing`` module.
- `6436 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6436>`_: :class:`FixtureDef <_pytest.fixtures.FixtureDef>` objects now properly register their finalizers with autouse and
parameterized fixtures that execute before them in the fixture stack so they are torn
down at the right times, and in the right order.
- `6532 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6532>`_: Fix parsing of outcomes containing multiple errors with ``testdir`` results (regression in 5.3.0).
Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------
- `6350 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6350>`_: Optimized automatic renaming of test parameter IDs.
```
### 5.3.2
```
=========================
Improvements
------------
- `4639 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4639>`_: Revert "A warning is now issued when assertions are made for ``None``".
The warning proved to be less useful than initially expected and had quite a
few false positive cases.
Bug Fixes
---------
- `5430 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5430>`_: junitxml: Logs for failed test are now passed to junit report in case the test fails during call phase.
- `6290 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6290>`_: The supporting files in the ``.pytest_cache`` directory are kept with ``--cache-clear``, which only clears cached values now.
- `6301 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6301>`_: Fix assertion rewriting for egg-based distributions and ``editable`` installs (``pip install --editable``).

EDIT: I was using an older version of pytest accidentally Still experiencing this using Python 3.10.0 and pytest 6.2.5; strangely it doesn't occur on 6.2.4. See traceback: |
|
that looks like old pytest (I suspect you have multiple installs given /usr/local/lib) |
|
Just noticed that I had 5.4.3 pinned in a requirements file, and after installing 6.2.5 I install 5.4.3 on top of it. Thanks for the quick reply. |

### Release Notes
<details>
<summary>pytest-dev/pytest</summary>
### [`v7.3.1`](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/releases/tag/7.3.1)
[Compare Source](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/compare/7.3.0...7.3.1)
# pytest 7.3.1 (2023-04-14)
## Improvements
- [#​10875](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10875): Python 3.12 support: fixed `RuntimeError: TestResult has no addDuration method` when running `unittest` tests.
- [#​10890](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10890): Python 3.12 support: fixed `shutil.rmtree(onerror=...)` deprecation warning when using `tmp_path`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"}.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10896](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10896): Fixed performance regression related to `tmp_path`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} and the new `tmp_path_retention_policy`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} option.
- [#​10903](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10903): Fix crash `INTERNALERROR IndexError: list index out of range` which happens when displaying an exception where all entries are hidden.
This reverts the change "Correctly handle `__tracebackhide__` for chained exceptions." introduced in version 7.3.0.
### [`v7.3.0`](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/releases/tag/7.3.0)
[Compare Source](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/compare/7.2.2...7.3.0)
# pytest 7.3.0 (2023-04-08)
## Features
- [#​10525](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10525): Test methods decorated with `@classmethod` can now be discovered as tests, following the same rules as normal methods. This fills the gap that static methods were discoverable as tests but not class methods.
- [#​10755](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10755): `console_output_style`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} now supports `progress-even-when-capture-no` to force the use of the progress output even when capture is disabled. This is useful in large test suites where capture may have significant performance impact.
- [#​7431](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7431): `--log-disable` CLI option added to disable individual loggers.
- [#​8141](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8141): Added `tmp_path_retention_count`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} and `tmp_path_retention_policy`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} configuration options to control how directories created by the `tmp_path`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} fixture are kept.
## Improvements
- [#​10226](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10226): If multiple errors are raised in teardown, we now re-raise an `ExceptionGroup` of them instead of discarding all but the last.
- [#​10658](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10658): Allow `-p` arguments to include spaces (eg: `-p no:logging` instead of
`-pno:logging`). Mostly useful in the `addopts` section of the configuration
file.
- [#​10710](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10710): Added `start` and `stop` timestamps to `TestReport` objects.
- [#​10727](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10727): Split the report header for `rootdir`, `config file` and `testpaths` so each has its own line.
- [#​10840](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10840): pytest should no longer crash on AST with pathological position attributes, for example testing AST produced by \[Hylang \<https://github.com/hylang/hy>\__]{.title-ref}.
- [#​6267](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6267): The full output of a test is no longer truncated if the truncation message would be longer than
the hidden text. The line number shown has also been fixed.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10743](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10743): The assertion rewriting mechanism now works correctly when assertion expressions contain the walrus operator.
- [#​10765](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10765): Fixed `tmp_path`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} fixture always raising `OSError`{.interpreted-text role="class"} on `emscripten` platform due to missing `os.getuid`{.interpreted-text role="func"}.
- [#​1904](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1904): Correctly handle `__tracebackhide__` for chained exceptions.
## Improved Documentation
- [#​10782](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10782): Fixed the minimal example in `goodpractices`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}: `pip install -e .` requires a `version` entry in `pyproject.toml` to run successfully.
## Trivial/Internal Changes
- [#​10669](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10669): pytest no longer depends on the \[attrs]{.title-ref} package (don't worry, nice diffs for attrs classes are still supported).
### [`v7.2.2`](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/releases/tag/7.2.2)
[Compare Source](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/compare/7.2.1...7.2.2)
# pytest 7.2.2 (2023-03-03)
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10533](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10533): Fixed `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} handling of dictionaries containing one or more values of \[0.0]{.title-ref}.
- [#​10592](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10592): Fixed crash if \[--cache-show]{.title-ref} and \[--help]{.title-ref} are passed at the same time.
- [#​10597](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10597): Fixed bug where a fixture method named `teardown` would be called as part of `nose` teardown stage.
- [#​10626](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10626): Fixed crash if `--fixtures` and `--help` are passed at the same time.
- [#​10660](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10660): Fixed :py`pytest.raises`{.interpreted-text role="func"} to return a 'ContextManager' so that type-checkers could narrow
`pytest.raises(...) if ... else nullcontext()` down to 'ContextManager' rather than 'object'.
## Improved Documentation
- [#​10690](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10690): Added \[CI]{.title-ref} and \[BUILD_NUMBER]{.title-ref} environment variables to the documentation.
- [#​10721](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10721): Fixed entry-points declaration in the documentation example using Hatch.
- [#​10753](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10753): Changed wording of the module level skip to be very explicit
about not collecting tests and not executing the rest of the module.
### [`v7.2.1`](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/releases/tag/7.2.1)
[Compare Source](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/compare/7.2.0...7.2.1)
# pytest 7.2.1 (2023-01-13)
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10452](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10452): Fix 'importlib.abc.TraversableResources' deprecation warning in Python 3.12.
- [#​10457](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10457): If a test is skipped from inside a fixture, the test summary now shows the test location instead of the fixture location.
- [#​10506](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10506): Fix bug where sometimes pytest would use the file system root directory as `rootdir <rootdir>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} on Windows.
- [#​10607](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10607): Fix a race condition when creating junitxml reports, which could occur when multiple instances of pytest execute in parallel.
- [#​10641](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10641): Fix a race condition when creating or updating the stepwise plugin's cache, which could occur when multiple xdist worker nodes try to simultaneously update the stepwise plugin's cache.
### [`v7.2.0`](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/releases/tag/7.2.0)
[Compare Source](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/compare/7.1.3...7.2.0)
# pytest 7.2.0 (2022-10-23)
## Deprecations
- [#​10012](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10012): Update `pytest.PytestUnhandledCoroutineWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"} to a deprecation; it will raise an error in pytest 8.
- [#​10396](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10396): pytest no longer depends on the `py` library. `pytest` provides a vendored copy of `py.error` and `py.path` modules but will use the `py` library if it is installed. If you need other `py.*` modules, continue to install the deprecated `py` library separately, otherwise it can usually be removed as a dependency.
- [#​4562](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4562): Deprecate configuring hook specs/impls using attributes/marks.
Instead use :py`pytest.hookimpl`{.interpreted-text role="func"} and :py`pytest.hookspec`{.interpreted-text role="func"}.
For more details, see the `docs <legacy-path-hooks-deprecated>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
- [#​9886](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9886): The functionality for running tests written for `nose` has been officially deprecated.
This includes:
- Plain `setup` and `teardown` functions and methods: this might catch users by surprise, as `setup()` and `teardown()` are not pytest idioms, but part of the `nose` support.
- Setup/teardown using the [@​with_setup](with-setup-nose) decorator.
For more details, consult the `deprecation docs <nose-deprecation>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
## Features
- [#​9897](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9897): Added shell-style wildcard support to `testpaths`.
## Improvements
- [#​10218](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10218): `@pytest.mark.parametrize()` (and similar functions) now accepts any `Sequence[str]` for the argument names,
instead of just `list[str]` and `tuple[str, ...]`.
(Note that `str`, which is itself a `Sequence[str]`, is still treated as a
comma-delimited name list, as before).
- [#​10381](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10381): The `--no-showlocals` flag has been added. This can be passed directly to tests to override `--showlocals` declared through `addopts`.
- [#​3426](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3426): Assertion failures with strings in NFC and NFD forms that normalize to the same string now have a dedicated error message detailing the issue, and their utf-8 representation is expresed instead.
- [#​7337](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7337): A warning is now emitted if a test function returns something other than \[None]{.title-ref}. This prevents a common mistake among beginners that expect that returning a \[bool]{.title-ref} (for example \[return foo(a, b) == result]{.title-ref}) would cause a test to pass or fail, instead of using \[assert]{.title-ref}.
- [#​8508](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8508): Introduce multiline display for warning matching via :py`pytest.warns`{.interpreted-text role="func"} and
enhance match comparison for :py`_pytest._code.ExceptionInfo.match`{.interpreted-text role="func"} as returned by :py`pytest.raises`{.interpreted-text role="func"}.
- [#​8646](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8646): Improve :py`pytest.raises`{.interpreted-text role="func"}. Previously passing an empty tuple would give a confusing
error. We now raise immediately with a more helpful message.
- [#​9741](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9741): On Python 3.11, use the standard library's `tomllib`{.interpreted-text role="mod"} to parse TOML.
`tomli`{.interpreted-text role="mod"}\` is no longer a dependency on Python 3.11.
- [#​9742](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9742): Display assertion message without escaped newline characters with `-vv`.
- [#​9823](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9823): Improved error message that is shown when no collector is found for a given file.
- [#​9873](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9873): Some coloring has been added to the short test summary.
- [#​9883](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9883): Normalize the help description of all command-line options.
- [#​9920](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9920): Display full crash messages in `short test summary info`, when runng in a CI environment.
- [#​9987](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9987): Added support for hidden configuration file by allowing `.pytest.ini` as an alternative to `pytest.ini`.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10150](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10150): `sys.stdin`{.interpreted-text role="data"} now contains all expected methods of a file-like object when capture is enabled.
- [#​10382](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10382): Do not break into pdb when `raise unittest.SkipTest()` appears top-level in a file.
- [#​7792](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7792): Marks are now inherited according to the full MRO in test classes. Previously, if a test class inherited from two or more classes, only marks from the first super-class would apply.
When inheriting marks from super-classes, marks from the sub-classes are now ordered before marks from the super-classes, in MRO order. Previously it was the reverse.
When inheriting marks from super-classes, the \[pytestmark]{.title-ref} attribute of the sub-class now only contains the marks directly applied to it. Previously, it also contained marks from its super-classes. Please note that this attribute should not normally be accessed directly; use `pytest.Node.iter_markers`{.interpreted-text role="func"} instead.
- [#​9159](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9159): Showing inner exceptions by forcing native display in `ExceptionGroups` even when using display options other than `--tb=native`. A temporary step before full implementation of pytest-native display for inner exceptions in `ExceptionGroups`.
- [#​9877](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9877): Ensure `caplog.get_records(when)` returns current/correct data after invoking `caplog.clear()`.
## Improved Documentation
- [#​10344](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10344): Update information on writing plugins to use `pyproject.toml` instead of `setup.py`.
- [#​9248](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9248): The documentation is now built using Sphinx 5.x (up from 3.x previously).
- [#​9291](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9291): Update documentation on how `pytest.warns`{.interpreted-text role="func"} affects `DeprecationWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
## Trivial/Internal Changes
- [#​10196](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10196): `~pytest.PytestReturnNotNoneWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"} is now a subclass of `~pytest.PytestRemovedIn8Warning`{.interpreted-text role="class"}: the plan is to make returning non-`None` from tests an error in the future.
- [#​10313](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10313): Made `_pytest.doctest.DoctestItem` export `pytest.DoctestItem` for
type check and runtime purposes. Made \[\_pytest.doctest]{.title-ref} use internal APIs
to avoid circular imports.
- [#​9906](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9906): Made `_pytest.compat` re-export `importlib_metadata` in the eyes of type checkers.
- [#​9910](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9910): Fix default encoding warning (`EncodingWarning`) in `cacheprovider`
- [#​9984](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9984): Improve the error message when we attempt to access a fixture that has been
torn down.
Add an additional sentence to the docstring explaining when it's not a good
idea to call getfixturevalue.

# pytest 7.1.3 (2022-08-31)
## Bug Fixes
- [#​10060](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10060): When running with `--pdb`, `TestCase.tearDown` is no longer called for tests when the *class* has been skipped via `unittest.skip` or `pytest.mark.skip`.
- [#​10190](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10190): Invalid XML characters in setup or teardown error messages are now properly escaped for JUnit XML reports.
- [#​10230](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10230): Ignore `.py` files created by `pyproject.toml`-based editable builds introduced in [pip 21.3](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/news/#v21-3).
- [#​3396](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3396): Doctests now respect the `--import-mode` flag.
- [#​9514](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9514): Type-annotate `FixtureRequest.param` as `Any` as a stop gap measure until `8073`{.interpreted-text role="issue"} is fixed.
- [#​9791](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9791): Fixed a path handling code in `rewrite.py` that seems to work fine, but was incorrect and fails in some systems.
- [#​9917](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9917): Fixed string representation for `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} when used to compare tuples.
## Improved Documentation
- [#​9937](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9937): Explicit note that `tmpdir`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} fixture is discouraged in favour of `tmp_path`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"}.
## Trivial/Internal Changes
- [#​10114](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10114): Replace [atomicwrites](https://github.com/untitaker/python-atomicwrites) dependency on windows with \[os.replace]{.title-ref}.

## Bug Fixes
- [#​9726](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9726): An unnecessary `numpy` import inside `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} was removed.
- [#​9820](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9820): Fix comparison of `dataclasses` with `InitVar`.
- [#​9869](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9869): Increase `stacklevel` for the `NODE_CTOR_FSPATH_ARG` deprecation to point to the
user's code, not pytest.
- [#​9871](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9871): Fix a bizarre (and fortunately rare) bug where the \[temp_path]{.title-ref} fixture could raise
an internal error while attempting to get the current user's username.

## Breaking Changes
- [#​8838](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8838): As per our policy, the following features have been deprecated in the 6.X series and are now
removed:
- `pytest._fillfuncargs` function.
- `pytest_warning_captured` hook - use `pytest_warning_recorded` instead.
- `-k -foobar` syntax - use `-k 'not foobar'` instead.
- `-k foobar:` syntax.
- `pytest.collect` module - import from `pytest` directly.
For more information consult
[Deprecations and Removals](https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/deprecations.html) in the docs.
- [#​9437](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9437): Dropped support for Python 3.6, which reached [end-of-life](https://devguide.python.org/#status-of-python-branches) at 2021-12-23.
## Improvements
- [#​5192](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5192): Fixed test output for some data types where `-v` would show less information.
Also, when showing diffs for sequences, `-q` would produce full diffs instead of the expected diff.
- [#​9362](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9362): pytest now avoids specialized assert formatting when it is detected that the default `__eq__` is overridden in `attrs` or `dataclasses`.
- [#​9536](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9536): When `-vv` is given on command line, show skipping and xfail reasons in full instead of truncating them to fit the terminal width.
- [#​9644](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9644): More information about the location of resources that led Python to raise `ResourceWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"} can now
be obtained by enabling `tracemalloc`{.interpreted-text role="mod"}.
See `resource-warnings`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more information.
- [#​9678](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9678): More types are now accepted in the `ids` argument to `@pytest.mark.parametrize`.
Previously only \[str]{.title-ref}, \[float]{.title-ref}, \[int]{.title-ref} and \[bool]{.title-ref} were accepted;
now \[bytes]{.title-ref}, \[complex]{.title-ref}, \[re.Pattern]{.title-ref}, \[Enum]{.title-ref} and anything with a \[\__name\_\_]{.title-ref} are also accepted.
- [#​9692](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9692): `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} now raises a `TypeError`{.interpreted-text role="class"} when given an unordered sequence (such as `set`{.interpreted-text role="class"}).
Note that this implies that custom classes which only implement `__iter__` and `__len__` are no longer supported as they don't guarantee order.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​8242](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8242): The deprecation of raising `unittest.SkipTest`{.interpreted-text role="class"} to skip collection of
tests during the pytest collection phase is reverted - this is now a supported
feature again.
- [#​9493](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9493): Symbolic link components are no longer resolved in conftest paths.
This means that if a conftest appears twice in collection tree, using symlinks, it will be executed twice.
For example, given
> tests/real/conftest.py
> tests/real/test_it.py
> tests/link -> tests/real
running `pytest tests` now imports the conftest twice, once as `tests/real/conftest.py` and once as `tests/link/conftest.py`.
This is a fix to match a similar change made to test collection itself in pytest 6.0 (see `6523`{.interpreted-text role="pull"} for details).
- [#​9626](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9626): Fixed count of selected tests on terminal collection summary when there were errors or skipped modules.
If there were errors or skipped modules on collection, pytest would mistakenly subtract those from the selected count.
- [#​9645](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9645): Fixed regression where `--import-mode=importlib` used together with `PYTHONPATH`{.interpreted-text role="envvar"} or `pythonpath`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} would cause import errors in test suites.
- [#​9708](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9708): `pytester`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} now requests a `monkeypatch`{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} fixture instead of creating one internally. This solves some issues with tests that involve pytest environment variables.
- [#​9730](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9730): Malformed `pyproject.toml` files now produce a clearer error message.

# pytest 7.0.1 (2022-02-11)
## Bug Fixes
- [#​9608](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9608): Fix invalid importing of `importlib.readers` in Python 3.9.
- [#​9610](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9610): Restore \[UnitTestFunction.obj]{.title-ref} to return unbound rather than bound method.
Fixes a crash during a failed teardown in unittest TestCases with non-default \[\__init\_\_]{.title-ref}.
Regressed in pytest 7.0.0.
- [#​9636](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9636): The `pythonpath` plugin was renamed to `python_path`. This avoids a conflict with the `pytest-pythonpath` plugin.
- [#​9642](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9642): Fix running tests by id with `::` in the parametrize portion.
- [#​9643](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9643): Delay issuing a `~pytest.PytestWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"} about diamond inheritance involving `~pytest.Item`{.interpreted-text role="class"} and
`~pytest.Collector`{.interpreted-text role="class"} so it can be filtered using `standard warning filters <warnings>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.

(**Please see the full set of changes for this release also in the 7.0.0rc1 notes below**)
## Deprecations
- [#​9488](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9488): If custom subclasses of nodes like `pytest.Item`{.interpreted-text role="class"} override the
`__init__` method, they should take `**kwargs`. See
`uncooperative-constructors-deprecated`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for details.
Note that a deprection warning is only emitted when there is a conflict in the
arguments pytest expected to pass. This deprecation was already part of pytest
7.0.0rc1 but wasn't documented.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​9355](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9355): Fixed error message prints function decorators when using assert in Python 3.8 and above.
- [#​9396](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9396): Ensure `pytest.Config.inifile`{.interpreted-text role="attr"} is available during the `pytest_cmdline_main <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_cmdline_main>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} hook (regression during `7.0.0rc1`).
## Improved Documentation
- [#​9404](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9404): Added extra documentation on alternatives to common misuses of \[pytest.warns(None)]{.title-ref} ahead of its deprecation.
- [#​9505](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9505): Clarify where the configuration files are located. To avoid confusions documentation mentions
that configuration file is located in the root of the repository.
## Trivial/Internal Changes
- [#​9521](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9521): Add test coverage to assertion rewrite path.
# pytest 7.0.0rc1 (2021-12-06)
## Breaking Changes
- [#​7259](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7259): The `Node.reportinfo() <non-python tests>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} function first return value type has been expanded from \[py.path.local | str]{.title-ref} to \[os.PathLike\[str] | str]{.title-ref}.
Most plugins which refer to \[reportinfo()]{.title-ref} only define it as part of a custom `pytest.Item`{.interpreted-text role="class"} implementation.
Since \[py.path.local]{.title-ref} is a \[os.PathLike\[str]]{.title-ref}, these plugins are unaffacted.
Plugins and users which call \[reportinfo()]{.title-ref}, use the first return value and interact with it as a \[py.path.local]{.title-ref}, would need to adjust by calling \[py.path.local(fspath)]{.title-ref}.
Although preferably, avoid the legacy \[py.path.local]{.title-ref} and use \[pathlib.Path]{.title-ref}, or use \[item.location]{.title-ref} or \[item.path]{.title-ref}, instead.
Note: pytest was not able to provide a deprecation period for this change.
- [#​8246](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8246): `--version` now writes version information to `stdout` rather than `stderr`.
- [#​8733](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8733): Drop a workaround for [pyreadline](https://github.com/pyreadline/pyreadline) that made it work with `--pdb`.
The workaround was introduced in [#​1281](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/pull/1281) in 2015, however since then
[pyreadline seems to have gone unmaintained](https://github.com/pyreadline/pyreadline/issues/58), is [generating
warnings](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8847), and will stop working on Python 3.10.
- [#​9061](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9061): Using `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} in a boolean context now raises an error hinting at the proper usage.
It is apparently common for users to mistakenly use `pytest.approx` like this:
```{.sourceCode .python}
assert pytest.approx(actual, expected)
```
While the correct usage is:
```{.sourceCode .python}
assert actual == pytest.approx(expected)
```
The new error message helps catch those mistakes.
- [#​9277](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9277): The `pytest.Instance` collector type has been removed.
Importing `pytest.Instance` or `_pytest.python.Instance` returns a dummy type and emits a deprecation warning.
See `instance-collector-deprecation`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for details.
- [#​9308](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9308): **PytestRemovedIn7Warning deprecation warnings are now errors by default.**
Following our plan to remove deprecated features with as little disruption as
possible, all warnings of type `PytestRemovedIn7Warning` now generate errors
instead of warning messages by default.
**The affected features will be effectively removed in pytest 7.1**, so please consult the
`deprecations`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} section in the docs for directions on how to update existing code.
In the pytest `7.0.X` series, it is possible to change the errors back into warnings as a
stopgap measure by adding this to your `pytest.ini` file:
```{.sourceCode .ini}
[pytest]
filterwarnings =
ignore::pytest.PytestRemovedIn7Warning
```
But this will stop working when pytest `7.1` is released.
**If you have concerns** about the removal of a specific feature, please add a
comment to `9308`{.interpreted-text role="issue"}.
## Deprecations
- [#​7259](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7259): `py.path.local` arguments for hooks have been deprecated. See `the deprecation note <legacy-path-hooks-deprecated>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for full details.
`py.path.local` arguments to Node constructors have been deprecated. See `the deprecation note <node-ctor-fspath-deprecation>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for full details.
::: {.note}
::: {.admonition-title}
Note
:::
The name of the `~_pytest.nodes.Node`{.interpreted-text role="class"} arguments and attributes (the
new attribute being `path`) is **the opposite** of the situation for hooks
(the old argument being `path`).
This is an unfortunate artifact due to historical reasons, which should be
resolved in future versions as we slowly get rid of the `py`{.interpreted-text role="pypi"}
dependency (see `9283`{.interpreted-text role="issue"} for a longer discussion).
:::
- [#​7469](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7469): Directly constructing the following classes is now deprecated:
- `_pytest.mark.structures.Mark`
- `_pytest.mark.structures.MarkDecorator`
- `_pytest.mark.structures.MarkGenerator`
- `_pytest.python.Metafunc`
- `_pytest.runner.CallInfo`
- `_pytest._code.ExceptionInfo`
- `_pytest.config.argparsing.Parser`
- `_pytest.config.argparsing.OptionGroup`
- `_pytest.pytester.HookRecorder`
These constructors have always been considered private, but now issue a deprecation warning, which may become a hard error in pytest 8.
- [#​8242](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8242): Raising `unittest.SkipTest`{.interpreted-text role="class"} to skip collection of tests during the
pytest collection phase is deprecated. Use `pytest.skip`{.interpreted-text role="func"} instead.
Note: This deprecation only relates to using `unittest.SkipTest`{.interpreted-text role="class"} during test
collection. You are probably not doing that. Ordinary usage of
`unittest.SkipTest`{.interpreted-text role="class"} / `unittest.TestCase.skipTest`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} /
`unittest.skip`{.interpreted-text role="func"} in unittest test cases is fully supported.
- [#​8315](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8315): Several behaviors of `Parser.addoption <pytest.Parser.addoption>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} are now
scheduled for removal in pytest 8 (deprecated since pytest 2.4.0):
- `parser.addoption(..., help=".. %default ..")` - use `%(default)s` instead.
- `parser.addoption(..., type="int/string/float/complex")` - use `type=int` etc. instead.
- [#​8447](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8447): Defining a custom pytest node type which is both an `pytest.Item <Item>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} and a `pytest.Collector <Collector>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} (e.g. `pytest.File <File>`{.interpreted-text role="class"}) now issues a warning.
It was never sanely supported and triggers hard to debug errors.
See `the deprecation note <diamond-inheritance-deprecated>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for full details.
- [#​8592](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8592): `pytest_cmdline_preparse`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} has been officially deprecated. It will be removed in a future release. Use `pytest_load_initial_conftests`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} instead.
See `the deprecation note <cmdline-preparse-deprecated>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for full details.
- [#​8645](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8645): `pytest.warns(None) <pytest.warns>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} is now deprecated because many people used
it to mean "this code does not emit warnings", but it actually had the effect of
checking that the code emits at least one warning of any type - like `pytest.warns()`
or `pytest.warns(Warning)`.
- [#​8948](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8948): `pytest.skip(msg=...) <pytest.skip>`{.interpreted-text role="func"}, `pytest.fail(msg=...) <pytest.fail>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} and `pytest.exit(msg=...) <pytest.exit>`{.interpreted-text role="func"}
signatures now accept a `reason` argument instead of `msg`. Using `msg` still works, but is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
This was changed for consistency with `pytest.mark.skip <pytest.mark.skip>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} and `pytest.mark.xfail <pytest.mark.xfail>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} which both accept
`reason` as an argument.
- [#​8174](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8174): The following changes have been made to types reachable through `pytest.ExceptionInfo.traceback`{.interpreted-text role="attr"}:
- The `path` property of `_pytest.code.Code` returns `Path` instead of `py.path.local`.
- The `path` property of `_pytest.code.TracebackEntry` returns `Path` instead of `py.path.local`.
There was no deprecation period for this change (sorry!).
## Features
- [#​5196](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5196): Tests are now ordered by definition order in more cases.
In a class hierarchy, tests from base classes are now consistently ordered before tests defined on their subclasses (reverse MRO order).
- [#​7132](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7132): Added two environment variables `PYTEST_THEME`{.interpreted-text role="envvar"} and `PYTEST_THEME_MODE`{.interpreted-text role="envvar"} to let the users customize the pygments theme used.
- [#​7259](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7259): Added `cache.mkdir() <pytest.Cache.mkdir>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"}, which is similar to the existing `cache.makedir() <pytest.Cache.makedir>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"},
but returns a `pathlib.Path`{.interpreted-text role="class"} instead of a legacy `py.path.local`.
Added a `paths` type to `parser.addini() <pytest.Parser.addini>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"},
as in `parser.addini("mypaths", "my paths", type="paths")`,
which is similar to the existing `pathlist`,
but returns a list of `pathlib.Path`{.interpreted-text role="class"} instead of legacy `py.path.local`.
- [#​7469](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7469): The types of objects used in pytest's API are now exported so they may be used in type annotations.
The newly-exported types are:
- `pytest.Config` for `Config <pytest.Config>`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.Mark` for `marks <pytest.Mark>`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.MarkDecorator` for `mark decorators <pytest.MarkDecorator>`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.MarkGenerator` for the `pytest.mark <pytest.MarkGenerator>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} singleton.
- `pytest.Metafunc` for the `metafunc <pytest.MarkGenerator>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} argument to the `pytest_generate_tests`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} hook.
- `pytest.CallInfo` for the `CallInfo <pytest.CallInfo>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type passed to various hooks.
- `pytest.PytestPluginManager` for `PytestPluginManager <pytest.PytestPluginManager>`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.ExceptionInfo` for the `ExceptionInfo <pytest.ExceptionInfo>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type returned from `pytest.raises`{.interpreted-text role="func"} and passed to various hooks.
- `pytest.Parser` for the `Parser <pytest.Parser>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type passed to the `pytest_addoption`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} hook.
- `pytest.OptionGroup` for the `OptionGroup <pytest.OptionGroup>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type returned from the `parser.addgroup <pytest.Parser.getgroup>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} method.
- `pytest.HookRecorder` for the `HookRecorder <pytest.HookRecorder>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type returned from `~pytest.Pytester`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.RecordedHookCall` for the `RecordedHookCall <pytest.HookRecorder>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type returned from `~pytest.HookRecorder`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.RunResult` for the `RunResult <pytest.RunResult>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type returned from `~pytest.Pytester`{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
- `pytest.LineMatcher` for the `LineMatcher <pytest.RunResult>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type used in `~pytest.RunResult`{.interpreted-text role="class"} and others.
- `pytest.TestReport` for the `TestReport <pytest.TestReport>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type used in various hooks.
- `pytest.CollectReport` for the `CollectReport <pytest.CollectReport>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} type used in various hooks.
Constructing most of them directly is not supported; they are only meant for use in type annotations.
Doing so will emit a deprecation warning, and may become a hard-error in pytest 8.0.
Subclassing them is also not supported. This is not currently enforced at runtime, but is detected by type-checkers such as mypy.
- [#​7856](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7856): `--import-mode=importlib <import-modes>`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} now works with features that
depend on modules being on :py`sys.modules`{.interpreted-text role="data"}, such as `pickle`{.interpreted-text role="mod"} and `dataclasses`{.interpreted-text role="mod"}.
- [#​8144](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8144): The following hooks now receive an additional `pathlib.Path` argument, equivalent to an existing `py.path.local` argument:
- `pytest_ignore_collect`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - The `collection_path` parameter (equivalent to existing `path` parameter).
- `pytest_collect_file`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - The `file_path` parameter (equivalent to existing `path` parameter).
- `pytest_pycollect_makemodule`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - The `module_path` parameter (equivalent to existing `path` parameter).
- `pytest_report_header`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - The `start_path` parameter (equivalent to existing `startdir` parameter).
- `pytest_report_collectionfinish`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - The `start_path` parameter (equivalent to existing `startdir` parameter).

:::
The name of the `~_pytest.nodes.Node`{.interpreted-text role="class"} arguments and attributes (the
new attribute being `path`) is **the opposite** of the situation for hooks
(the old argument being `path`).
This is an unfortunate artifact due to historical reasons, which should be
resolved in future versions as we slowly get rid of the `py`{.interpreted-text role="pypi"}
dependency (see `9283`{.interpreted-text role="issue"} for a longer discussion).

- [#​8251](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8251): Implement `Node.path` as a `pathlib.Path`. Both the old `fspath` and this new attribute gets set no matter whether `path` or `fspath` (deprecated) is passed to the constructor. It is a replacement for the `fspath` attribute (which represents the same path as `py.path.local`). While `fspath` is not deprecated yet
due to the ongoing migration of methods like `~_pytest.Item.reportinfo`{.interpreted-text role="meth"}, we expect to deprecate it in a future release.

:::
- [#​8421](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8421): `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} now works on `~decimal.Decimal`{.interpreted-text role="class"} within mappings/dicts and sequences/lists.
- [#​8606](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8606): pytest invocations with `--fixtures-per-test` and `--fixtures` have been enriched with:
- Fixture location path printed with the fixture name.
- First section of the fixture's docstring printed under the fixture name.
- Whole of fixture's docstring printed under the fixture name using `--verbose` option.
- [#​8761](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8761): New `version-tuple`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} attribute, which makes it simpler for users to do something depending on the pytest version (such as declaring hooks which are introduced in later versions).
- [#​8789](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8789): Switch TOML parser from `toml` to `tomli` for TOML v1.0.0 support in `pyproject.toml`.
- [#​8920](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8920): Added `pytest.Stash`{.interpreted-text role="class"}, a facility for plugins to store their data on `~pytest.Config`{.interpreted-text role="class"} and `~_pytest.nodes.Node`{.interpreted-text role="class"}s in a type-safe and conflict-free manner.
See `plugin-stash`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for details.
- [#​8953](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8953): `RunResult <_pytest.pytester.RunResult>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} method `assert_outcomes <_pytest.pytester.RunResult.assert_outcomes>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} now accepts a
`warnings` argument to assert the total number of warnings captured.
- [#​8954](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8954): `--debug` flag now accepts a `str`{.interpreted-text role="class"} file to route debug logs into, remains defaulted to \[pytestdebug.log]{.title-ref}.
- [#​9023](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9023): Full diffs are now always shown for equality assertions of iterables when
\[CI]{.title-ref} or `BUILD_NUMBER` is found in the environment, even when `-v` isn't
used.
- [#​9113](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9113): `RunResult <_pytest.pytester.RunResult>`{.interpreted-text role="class"} method `assert_outcomes <_pytest.pytester.RunResult.assert_outcomes>`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} now accepts a
`deselected` argument to assert the total number of deselected tests.
- [#​9114](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9114): Added `pythonpath`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} setting that adds listed paths to `sys.path`{.interpreted-text role="data"} for the duration of the test session. If you currently use the pytest-pythonpath or pytest-srcpaths plugins, you should be able to replace them with built-in \[pythonpath]{.title-ref} setting.
## Improvements
- [#​7480](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7480): A deprecation scheduled to be removed in a major version X (e.g. pytest 7, 8, 9, ...) now uses warning category \[PytestRemovedInXWarning]{.title-ref},
a subclass of `~pytest.PytestDeprecationWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"},
instead of `PytestDeprecationWarning`{.interpreted-text role="class"} directly.
See `backwards-compatibility`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more details.
- [#​7864](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7864): Improved error messages when parsing warning filters.
Previously pytest would show an internal traceback, which besides being ugly sometimes would hide the cause
of the problem (for example an `ImportError` while importing a specific warning type).
- [#​8335](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8335): Improved `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} assertion messages for sequences of numbers.
The assertion messages now dumps a table with the index and the error of each diff.
Example:
> assert [1, 2, 3, 4] == pytest.approx([1, 3, 3, 5])
E assert comparison failed for 2 values:
E Index | Obtained | Expected
E 1 | 2 | 3 +- 3.0e-06
E 3 | 4 | 5 +- 5.0e-06
- [#​8403](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8403): By default, pytest will truncate long strings in assert errors so they don't clutter the output too much,
currently at `240` characters by default.
However, in some cases the longer output helps, or is even crucial, to diagnose a failure. Using `-v` will
now increase the truncation threshold to `2400` characters, and `-vv` or higher will disable truncation entirely.
- [#​8509](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8509): Fixed issue where `unittest.TestCase.setUpClass`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} is not called when a test has \[/]{.title-ref} in its name since pytest 6.2.0.
This refers to the path part in pytest node IDs, e.g. `TestClass::test_it` in the node ID `tests/test_file.py::TestClass::test_it`.
Now, instead of assuming that the test name does not contain `/`, it is assumed that test path does not contain `::`. We plan to hopefully make both of these work in the future.
- [#​8803](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8803): It is now possible to add colors to custom log levels on cli log.
By using `add_color_level <_pytest.logging.add_color_level>`{.interpreted-text role="func"} from a `pytest_configure` hook, colors can be added:
logging_plugin = config.pluginmanager.get_plugin('logging-plugin')
logging_plugin.log_cli_handler.formatter.add_color_level(logging.INFO, 'cyan')
logging_plugin.log_cli_handler.formatter.add_color_level(logging.SPAM, 'blue')
See `log_colors`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more information.
- [#​8822](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8822): When showing fixture paths in \[--fixtures]{.title-ref} or \[--fixtures-by-test]{.title-ref}, fixtures coming from pytest itself now display an elided path, rather than the full path to the file in the \[site-packages]{.title-ref} directory.
- [#​8898](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8898): Complex numbers are now treated like floats and integers when generating parameterization IDs.
- [#​9062](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9062): `--stepwise-skip` now implicitly enables `--stepwise` and can be used on its own.
- [#​9205](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9205): `pytest.Cache.set`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} now preserves key order when saving dicts.
## Bug Fixes
- [#​7124](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7124): Fixed an issue where `__main__.py` would raise an `ImportError` when `--doctest-modules` was provided.
- [#​8061](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8061): Fixed failing `staticmethod` test cases if they are inherited from a parent test class.
- [#​8192](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8192): `testdir.makefile` now silently accepts values which don't start with `.` to maintain backward compatibility with older pytest versions.
`pytester.makefile` now issues a clearer error if the `.` is missing in the `ext` argument.
- [#​8258](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8258): Fixed issue where pytest's `faulthandler` support would not dump traceback on crashes
if the `faulthandler`{.interpreted-text role="mod"} module was already enabled during pytest startup (using
`python -X dev -m pytest` for example).
- [#​8317](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8317): Fixed an issue where illegal directory characters derived from `getpass.getuser()` raised an `OSError`.
- [#​8367](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8367): Fix `Class.from_parent` so it forwards extra keyword arguments to the constructor.
- [#​8377](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8377): The test selection options `pytest -k` and `pytest -m` now support matching
names containing forward slash (`/`) characters.
- [#​8384](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8384): The `@pytest.mark.skip` decorator now correctly handles its arguments. When the `reason` argument is accidentally given both positional and as a keyword (e.g. because it was confused with `skipif`), a `TypeError` now occurs. Before, such tests were silently skipped, and the positional argument ignored. Additionally, `reason` is now documented correctly as positional or keyword (rather than keyword-only).
- [#​8394](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8394): Use private names for internal fixtures that handle classic setup/teardown so that they don't show up with the default `--fixtures` invocation (but they still show up with `--fixtures -v`).
- [#​8456](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8456): The `required_plugins`{.interpreted-text role="confval"} config option now works correctly when pre-releases of plugins are installed, rather than falsely claiming that those plugins aren't installed at all.
- [#​8464](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8464): `-c <config file>` now also properly defines `rootdir` as the directory that contains `<config file>`.
- [#​8503](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8503): `pytest.MonkeyPatch.syspath_prepend`{.interpreted-text role="meth"} no longer fails when
`setuptools` is not installed.
It now only calls `pkg_resources.fixup_namespace_packages`{.interpreted-text role="func"} if
`pkg_resources` was previously imported, because it is not needed otherwise.
- [#​8548](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8548): Introduce fix to handle precision width in `log-cli-format` in turn to fix output coloring for certain formats.
- [#​8796](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8796): Fixed internal error when skipping doctests.
- [#​8983](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8983): The test selection options `pytest -k` and `pytest -m` now support matching names containing backslash (\[\\]{.title-ref}) characters.
Backslashes are treated literally, not as escape characters (the values being matched against are already escaped).
- [#​8990](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8990): Fix \[pytest -vv]{.title-ref} crashing with an internal exception \[AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'relative_to']{.title-ref} in some cases.
- [#​9077](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9077): Fixed confusing error message when `request.fspath` / `request.path` was accessed from a session-scoped fixture.
- [#​9131](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9131): Fixed the URL used by `--pastebin` to use [bpa.st](http://bpa.st).
- [#​9163](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9163): The end line number and end column offset are now properly set for rewritten assert statements.
- [#​9169](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9169): Support for the `files` API from `importlib.resources` within rewritten files.
- [#​9272](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9272): The nose compatibility module-level fixtures \[setup()]{.title-ref} and \[teardown()]{.title-ref} are now only called once per module, instead of for each test function.
They are now called even if object-level \[setup]{.title-ref}/\[teardown]{.title-ref} is defined.
## Improved Documentation
- [#​4320](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4320): Improved docs for \[pytester.copy_example]{.title-ref}.
- [#​5105](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5105): Add automatically generated `plugin-list`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}. The list is updated on a periodic schedule.
- [#​8337](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8337): Recommend [numpy.testing](https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/routines.testing.html) module on `pytest.approx`{.interpreted-text role="func"} documentation.
- [#​8655](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8655): Help text for `--pdbcls` more accurately reflects the option's behavior.
- [#​9210](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9210): Remove incorrect docs about `confcutdir` being a configuration option: it can only be set through the `--confcutdir` command-line option.
- [#​9242](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9242): Upgrade readthedocs configuration to use a [newer Ubuntu version](https://blog.readthedocs.com/new-build-specification/)\` with better unicode support for PDF docs.
- [#​9341](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9341): Various methods commonly used for `non-python tests`{.interpreted-text role="ref"} are now correctly documented in the reference docs. They were undocumented previously.
## Trivial/Internal Changes
- [#​8133](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8133): Migrate to `setuptools_scm` 6.x to use `SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION_FOR_PYTEST` for more robust release tooling.
- [#​8174](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8174): The following changes have been made to internal pytest types/functions:
- The `_pytest.code.getfslineno()` function returns `Path` instead of `py.path.local`.
- The `_pytest.python.path_matches_patterns()` function takes `Path` instead of `py.path.local`.
- The `_pytest._code.Traceback.cut()` function accepts any `os.PathLike[str]`, not just `py.path.local`.
- [#​8248](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8248): Internal Restructure: let `python.PyObjMixin` inherit from `nodes.Node` to carry over typing information.
- [#​8432](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8432): Improve error message when `pytest.skip`{.interpreted-text role="func"} is used at module level without passing \[allow_module_level=True]{.title-ref}.
- [#​8818](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8818): Ensure `regendoc` opts out of `TOX_ENV` cachedir selection to ensure independent example test runs.
- [#​8913](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8913): The private `CallSpec2._arg2scopenum` attribute has been removed after an internal refactoring.
- [#​8967](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8967): `pytest_assertion_pass`{.interpreted-text role="hook"} is no longer considered experimental and
future changes to it will be considered more carefully.
- [#​9202](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9202): Add github action to upload coverage report to codecov instead of bash uploader.
- [#​9225](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9225): Changed the command used to create sdist and wheel artifacts: using the build package instead of setup.py.
- [#​9351](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9351): Correct minor typos in doc/en/example/special.rst.

# pytest 6.2.3 (2021-04-03)
## Bug Fixes
- [#​8414](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8414): pytest used to create directories under `/tmp` with world-readable
permissions. This means that any user in the system was able to read
information written by tests in temporary directories (such as those created by
the `tmp_path`/`tmpdir` fixture). Now the directories are created with
private permissions.
pytest used silenty use a pre-existing `/tmp/pytest-of-<username>` directory,
even if owned by another user. This means another user could pre-create such a
directory and gain control of another user's temporary directory. Now such a
condition results in an error.

the host and loaded later from an UNC mounted path (Windows).
- [#​8132](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8132): Fixed regression in `approx`: in 6.2.0 `approx` no longer raises
`TypeError` when dealing with non-numeric types, falling back to normal comparison.
Before 6.2.0, array types like tf.DeviceArray fell through to the scalar case,
and happened to compare correctly to a scalar if they had only one element.
After 6.2.0, these types began failing, because they inherited neither from
standard Python number hierarchy nor from `numpy.ndarray`.
`approx` now converts arguments to `numpy.ndarray` if they expose the array
protocol and are not scalars. This treats array-like objects like numpy arrays,
regardless of size.

These have always been considered private, but now issue a deprecation warning, which may become a hard error in pytest 7.0.0.
- [#​7530](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7530): The `--strict` command-line option has been deprecated, use `--strict-markers` instead.
We have plans to maybe in the future to reintroduce `--strict` and make it an encompassing flag for all strictness
related options (`--strict-markers` and `--strict-config` at the moment, more might be introduced in the future).
- [#​7988](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7988): The `@pytest.yield_fixture` decorator/function is now deprecated. Use pytest.fixture instead.
`yield_fixture` has been an alias for `fixture` for a very long time, so can be search/replaced safely.
## Features
- [#​5299](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5299): pytest now warns about unraisable exceptions and unhandled thread exceptions that occur in tests on Python>=3.8.
See unraisable for more information.
- [#​7425](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7425): New pytester fixture, which is identical to testdir but its methods return pathlib.Path when appropriate instead of `py.path.local`.
This is part of the movement to use pathlib.Path objects internally, in order to remove the dependency to `py` in the future.
Internally, the old Testdir <\_pytest.pytester.Testdir> is now a thin wrapper around Pytester <\_pytest.pytester.Pytester>, preserving the old interface.
- [#​7695](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7695): A new hook was added, pytest_markeval_namespace which should return a dictionary.
This dictionary will be used to augment the "global" variables available to evaluate skipif/xfail/xpass markers.
Pseudo example
`conftest.py`:
```{.sourceCode .python}
def pytest_markeval_namespace():
return {"color": "red"}
```
`test_func.py`:
```{.sourceCode .python}
@​pytest.mark.skipif("color == 'blue'", reason="Color is not red")
def test_func():
assert False
```
- [#​8006](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8006): It is now possible to construct a ~pytest.MonkeyPatch object directly as `pytest.MonkeyPatch()`,
in cases when the monkeypatch fixture cannot be used. Previously some users imported it
from the private \_pytest.monkeypatch.MonkeyPatch namespace.
Additionally, MonkeyPatch.context \<pytest.MonkeyPatch.context> is now a classmethod,
and can be used as `with MonkeyPatch.context() as mp: ...`. This is the recommended way to use
`MonkeyPatch` directly, since unlike the `mon…

I discovered this in the Hypothesis CI, with Pytest 6.2.3 on Ubuntu and
python3.10-dev(alpha07) frompyenv. Unfortunately I don't have a smaller reproducing example than that, since my only copy of alpha07 is on that CI server.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
