Some environments couldn't install 4.3, as described in issue 540_. This is
now fixed.
The check for conflicting --source and --include was too simple in a
few different ways, breaking a few perfectly reasonable use cases, described
in issue 541. The check has been reverted while we re-think the fix for
issue 265.
Subprocesses that are measured with automatic subprocess measurement used
to read in any pre-existing data file. This meant data would be incorrectly
carried forward from run to run. Now those files are not read, so each
subprocess only writes its own data. Fixes issue 510.
The coverage combine command will now fail if there are no data files to
combine. The combine changes in 4.2 meant that multiple combines could lose
data, leaving you with an empty .coverage data file. Fixes issues
issue 525, issue 412, issue 516, and probably issue 511.
Coverage.py wouldn't execute sys.excepthook when an exception happened in
your program. Now it does, thanks to Andrew Hoos. Closes issue 535.
Branch coverage could misunderstand a finally clause on a try block that
never continued on to the following statement, as described in issue 493_. This is now fixed. Thanks to Joe Doherty for the report and Loïc
Dachary for the fix.
A while loop with a constant condition (while True) and a continue
statement would be mis-analyzed, as described in issue 496_. This is now
fixed, thanks to a bug report by Eli Skeggs and a fix by Loïc Dachary.
While loops with constant conditions that were never executed could result
in a non-zero coverage report. Artem Dayneko reported this in issue 502_, and Loïc Dachary provided the fix.
The HTML report now supports a --skip-covered option like the other
reporting commands. Thanks, Loïc Dachary for the implementation, closing
issue 433_.
Options can now be read from a tox.ini file, if any. Like setup.cfg, sections
are prefixed with "coverage:", so [run] options will be read from the
[coverage:run] section of tox.ini. Implements part of issue 519_.
Thanks, Stephen Finucane.
Specifying both --source and --include no longer silently ignores the
include setting, instead it fails with a message. Thanks, Nathan Land and
Loïc Dachary. Closes issue 265_.
The Coverage.combine method has a new parameter, strict=False, to
support failing if there are no data files to combine.
When forking subprocesses, the coverage data files would have the same random
number appended to the file name. This didn't cause problems, because the
file names had the process id also, making collisions (nearly) impossible.
But it was disconcerting. This is now fixed.
The text report now properly sizes headers when skipping some files, fixing
issue 524_. Thanks, Anthony Sottile and Loïc Dachary.
Coverage.py can now search .pex files for source, just as it can .zip and
.egg. Thanks, Peter Ebden.
Data files are now about 15% smaller.
Improvements in the [run] debug setting:
The "dataio" debug setting now also logs when data files are deleted during
combining or erasing.
A new debug option, "multiproc", for logging the behavior of
concurrency=multiprocessing.
If you used the debug options "config" and "callers" together, you'd get a
call stack printed for every line in the multi-line config output. This is
now fixed.
Fixed an unusual bug involving multiple coding declarations affecting code
containing code in multi-line strings: issue 529_.
Coverage.py will no longer be misled into thinking that a plain file is a
package when interpreting --source options. Thanks, Cosimo Lupo.
If you try to run a non-Python file with coverage.py, you will now get a more
useful error message. Issue 514_.
The default pragma regex changed slightly, but this will only matter to you
if you are deranged and use mixed-case pragmas.
Deal properly with non-ASCII file names in an ASCII-only world, issue 533_.
Programs that set Unicode configuration values could cause UnicodeErrors when
generating HTML reports. Pytest-cov is one example. This is now fixed.
Prevented deprecation warnings from configparser that happened in some
circumstances, closing issue 530_.
Corrected the name of the jquery.ba-throttle-debounce.js library. Thanks,
Ben Finney. Closes issue 505_.
Testing against PyPy 5.6 and PyPy3 5.5.
Switched to pytest from nose for running the coverage.py tests.
Renamed AUTHORS.txt to CONTRIBUTORS.txt, since there are other ways to
contribute than by writing code. Also put the count of contributors into the
author string in setup.py, though this might be too cute.
Since concurrency=multiprocessing uses subprocesses, options specified on
the coverage.py command line will not be communicated down to them. Only
options in the configuration file will apply to the subprocesses.
Previously, the options didn't apply to the subprocesses, but there was no
indication. Now it is an error to use --concurrency=multiprocessing and
other run-affecting options on the command line. This prevents
failures like those reported in issue 495_.
Filtering the HTML report is now faster, thanks to Ville Skyttä.
BACKWARD INCOMPATIBILITY: the coverage combine command now ignores an
existing .coverage data file. It used to include that file in its
combining. This caused confusing results, and extra tox "clean" steps. If
you want the old behavior, use the new coverage combine --append option.
The concurrency option can now take multiple values, to support programs
using multiprocessing and another library such as eventlet. This is only
possible in the configuration file, not from the command line. The
configuration file is the only way for sub-processes to all run with the same
options. Fixes issue 484_. Thanks to Josh Williams for prototyping.
Using a concurrency setting of multiprocessing now implies
--parallel so that the main program is measured similarly to the
sub-processes.
When using automatic subprocess measurement, running coverage commands
would create spurious data files. This is now fixed, thanks to diagnosis and
testing by Dan Riti. Closes issue 492.
A new configuration option, report:sort, controls what column of the
text report is used to sort the rows. Thanks to Dan Wandschneider, this
closes issue 199_.
The HTML report has a more-visible indicator for which column is being
sorted. Closes issue 298_, thanks to Josh Williams.
If the HTML report cannot find the source for a file, the message now
suggests using the -i flag to allow the report to continue. Closes
issue 231_, thanks, Nathan Land.
When reports are ignoring errors, there's now a warning if a file cannot be
parsed, rather than being silently ignored. Closes issue 396_. Thanks,
Matthew Boehm.
A new option for coverage debug is available: coverage debug config
shows the current configuration. Closes issue 454_, thanks to Matthew
Boehm.
Running coverage as a module (python -m coverage) no longer shows the
program name as __main__.py. Fixes issue 478_. Thanks, Scott Belden.
The test_helpers module has been moved into a separate pip-installable
package: unittest-mixins_.
Correct the deprecation message when not specifying a --format so that it
uses the correct setting name (format) rather than the incorrect one
(list_format) (:issue:4058).
Fix pip check to check all available distributions and not just the
local ones (:issue:4083).
Fix a crash on non ASCII characters from lsb_release (:issue:4062).
Fix an SyntaxError in an an used module of a vendored dependency

9.0.0
BACKWARD INCOMPATIBLE Remove the attempted autodetection of requirement
names from URLs, URLs must include a name via egg=.
DEPRECATIONpip install --egg have been deprecated and will be
removed in the future. This "feature" has a long list of drawbacks which
break nearly all of pip's other features in subtle and hard-to-diagnose
ways.
DEPRECATION--default-vcs option (:issue:4052).
WARNING pip 9 cache can break forward compatibility with previous pip
versions if your package repository allows chunked responses (:issue:4078).

Fix regression in pip freeze: when there is more than one git remote,
priority is given to the remote named origin (:pull:3708, :issue:3616).
Fix crash when calling pip freeze with invalid requirement installed
(:pull:3704, :issue:3681).
Allow multiple --requirement files in pip freeze (:pull:3703).
Implementation of pep-503 data-requires-python. When this field is
present for a release link, pip will ignore the download when
installing to a Python version that doesn't satisfy the requirement.
pip wheel now works on editable packages too (it was only working on
editable dependencies before); this allows running pip wheel on the result
of pip freeze in presence of editable requirements (:pull:3695,
:issue:3291).
Load credentials from .netrc files (:pull:3715, :issue:3569).
Add --platform, --python-version, --implementation and --abi parameters to

pytest 2.9.2 -> 3.0.5
3.0.5
==================
Add warning when not passing option=value correctly to -o/--override-ini (2105).
Also improved the help documentation. Thanks to mbukatov for the report and
lwm_ for the PR.
Now --confcutdir and --junit-xml are properly validated if they are directories
and filenames, respectively (2089 and 2078). Thanks to lwm_ for the PR.
Add hint to error message hinting possible missing __init__.py (478). Thanks DuncanBetts.
More accurately describe when fixture finalization occurs in documentation (687). Thanks DuncanBetts.
Provide :ref: targets for recwarn.rst so we can use intersphinx referencing.
Thanks to dupuy for the report and lwm for the PR.
In Python 2, use a simple +- ASCII string in the string representation of pytest.approx (for example "4 +- 4.0e-06")
because it is brittle to handle that in different contexts and representations internally in pytest
which can result in bugs such as 2111. In Python 3, the representation still uses ± (for example 4 ± 4.0e-06).
Thanks kerrick-lyft for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Using item.Function, item.Module, etc., is now issuing deprecation warnings, prefer
pytest.Function, pytest.Module, etc., instead (2034).
Thanks nmundar for the PR.
Fix error message using approx with complex numbers (2082).
Thanks adler-j for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Fixed false-positives warnings from assertion rewrite hook for modules imported more than
once by the pytest_plugins mechanism.
Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Remove an internal cache which could cause hooks from conftest.py files in
sub-directories to be called in other directories incorrectly (2016).
Thanks d-b-w for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Remove internal code meant to support earlier Python 3 versions that produced the side effect
of leaving None in sys.modules when expressions were evaluated by pytest (for example passing a condition
as a string to pytest.mark.skipif)(2103).
Thanks jaraco for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Cope gracefully with a .pyc file with no matching .py file (2038). Thanks
nedbat.
Import errors when collecting test modules now display the full traceback (1976).
Thanks cwitty for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Fix confusing command-line help message for custom options with two or more metavar properties (2004).
Thanks okulynyak and davehunt for the report and nicoddemus for the PR.
When loading plugins, import errors which contain non-ascii messages are now properly handled in Python 2 (1998).
Thanks nicoddemus for the PR.
Fixed cyclic reference when pytest.raises is used in context-manager form (1965_). Also as a
result of this fix, sys.exc_info() is left empty in both context-manager and function call usages.
Previously, sys.exc_info would contain the exception caught by the context manager,
even when the expected exception occurred.
Thanks MSeifert04_ for the report and the PR.
Fixed false-positives warnings from assertion rewrite hook for modules that were rewritten but
were later marked explicitly by pytest.register_assert_rewrite
or implicitly as a plugin (2005).
Thanks RonnyPfannschmidt for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Report teardown output on test failure (442).
Thanks matclab for the PR.
Fix teardown error message in generated xUnit XML.
Thanks gdyuldin_ for the PR.
Properly handle exceptions in multiprocessing tasks (1984).
Thanks adborden for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Clean up unittest TestCase objects after tests are complete (1649_).
Thanks d_b_w_ for the report and PR.
Improve error message when passing non-string ids to pytest.mark.parametrize (1857).
Thanks okken for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Add buffer attribute to stdin stub class pytest.capture.DontReadFromInput
Thanks joguSD_ for the PR.
Fix UnicodeEncodeError when string comparison with unicode has failed. (1864)
Thanks AiOO for the PR.
pytest_plugins is now handled correctly if defined as a string (as opposed as
a sequence of strings) when modules are considered for assertion rewriting.
Due to this bug, much more modules were being rewritten than necessary
if a test suite uses pytest_plugins to load internal plugins (1888).
Thanks jaraco for the report and nicoddemus for the PR (1891).
Do not call tearDown and cleanups when running tests from
unittest.TestCase subclasses with --pdb
enabled. This allows proper post mortem debugging for all applications
which have significant logic in their tearDown machinery (1890). Thanks
mbyt for the PR.
Fix use of deprecated getfuncargvalue method in the internal doctest plugin.
Thanks ViviCoder for the report (1898).
Fix regression when importorskip is used at module level (1822).
Thanks jaraco and The-Compiler for the report and nicoddemus for the PR.
Fix parametrization scope when session fixtures are used in conjunction
with normal parameters in the same call (1832).
Thanks The-Compiler for the report, Kingdread and nicoddemus for the PR.
Fix internal error when parametrizing tests or fixtures using an empty ids argument (1849).
Thanks OPpuolitaival for the report and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Fix loader error when running pytest embedded in a zipfile.
Thanks mbachry_ for the PR.
A number of incompatible changes were made in this release, with the intent of removing features deprecated for a long
time or change existing behaviors in order to make them less surprising/more useful.
Reinterpretation mode has now been removed. Only plain and rewrite
mode are available, consequently the --assert=reinterp option is
no longer available. This also means files imported from plugins or
conftest.py will not benefit from improved assertions by
default, you should use pytest.register_assert_rewrite() to
explicitly turn on assertion rewriting for those files. Thanks
flub_ for the PR.
The following deprecated commandline options were removed:
--genscript: no longer supported;
--no-assert: use --assert=plain instead;
--nomagic: use --assert=plain instead;
--report: use -r instead;
Thanks to RedBeardCode for the PR (1664).
ImportErrors in plugins now are a fatal error instead of issuing a
pytest warning (1479). Thanks to The-Compiler for the PR.
Removed support code for Python 3 versions < 3.3 (1627_).
Removed all py.test-X* entry points. The versioned, suffixed entry points
were never documented and a leftover from a pre-virtualenv era. These entry
points also created broken entry points in wheels, so removing them also
removes a source of confusion for users (1632).
Thanks obestwalter for the PR.
pytest.skip() now raises an error when used to decorate a test function,
as opposed to its original intent (to imperatively skip a test inside a test function). Previously
this usage would cause the entire module to be skipped (607).
Thanks omarkohl for the complete PR (1519_).
Exit tests if a collection error occurs. A poll indicated most users will hit CTRL-C
anyway as soon as they see collection errors, so pytest might as well make that the default behavior (1421).
A --continue-on-collection-errors option has been added to restore the previous behaviour.
Thanks olegpidsadnyi and omarkohl for the complete PR (1628).
Renamed the pytest pdb module (plugin) into debugging to avoid clashes with the builtin pdb module.
Raise a helpful failure message when requesting a parametrized fixture at runtime,
e.g. with request.getfixturevalue. Previously these parameters were simply
never defined, so a fixture decorated like pytest.fixture(params=[0, 1, 2])
only ran once (460).
Thanks to nikratio for the bug report, RedBeardCode and tomviner for the PR.
_pytest.monkeypatch.monkeypatch class has been renamed to _pytest.monkeypatch.MonkeyPatch
so it doesn't conflict with the monkeypatch fixture.
--exitfirst / -x can now be overridden by a following --maxfail=N
and is just a synonym for --maxfail=1.
New Features
Support nose-style __test__ attribute on methods of classes,
including unittest-style Classes. If set to False, the test will not be
collected.
New doctest_namespace fixture for injecting names into the
namespace in which doctests run.
Thanks milliams for the complete PR (1428).
New --doctest-report option available to change the output format of diffs
when running (failing) doctests (implements 1749).
Thanks hartym for the PR.
New name argument to pytest.fixture decorator which allows a custom name
for a fixture (to solve the funcarg-shadowing-fixture problem).
Thanks novas0x2a for the complete PR (1444).
New approx() function for easily comparing floating-point numbers in
tests.
Thanks kalekundert for the complete PR (1441).
Ability to add global properties in the final xunit output file by accessing
the internal junitxml plugin (experimental).
Thanks tareqalayan for the complete PR 1454).
New ExceptionInfo.match() method to match a regular expression on the
string representation of an exception (372).
Thanks omarkohl for the complete PR (1502_).
__tracebackhide__ can now also be set to a callable which then can decide
whether to filter the traceback based on the ExceptionInfo object passed
to it. Thanks The-Compiler for the complete PR (1526).
New pytest_make_parametrize_id(config, val) hook which can be used by plugins to provide
friendly strings for custom types.
Thanks palaviv_ for the PR.
capsys and capfd now have a disabled() context-manager method, which
can be used to temporarily disable capture within a test.
Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
New cli flag --fixtures-per-test: shows which fixtures are being used
for each selected test item. Features doc strings of fixtures by default.
Can also show where fixtures are defined if combined with -v.
Thanks hackebrot_ for the PR.
Introduce pytest command as recommended entry point. Note that py.test
still works and is not scheduled for removal. Closes proposal
1629. Thanks obestwalter and davehunt for the complete PR
(1633).
New cli flags:
--setup-plan: performs normal collection and reports
the potential setup and teardown and does not execute any fixtures and tests;
--setup-only: performs normal collection, executes setup and teardown of
fixtures and reports them;
--setup-show: performs normal test execution and additionally shows
setup and teardown of fixtures;
--keep-duplicates: py.test now ignores duplicated paths given in the command
line. To retain the previous behavior where the same test could be run multiple
times by specifying it in the command-line multiple times, pass the --keep-duplicates
argument (1609_);
Thanks d6e, kvas-it, sallner, ioggstream and omarkohl_ for the PRs.
New CLI flag --override-ini/-o: overrides values from the ini file.
For example: "-o xfail_strict=True"'.
Thanks blueyed and fengxx for the PR.
pytest_fixture_post_finalizer(fixturedef): called after the fixture's
finalizer and has access to the fixture's result cache.
Thanks d6e, sallner.
Issue warnings for asserts whose test is a tuple literal. Such asserts will
never fail because tuples are always truthy and are usually a mistake
(see 1562). Thanks kvas-it, for the PR.
Allow passing a custom debugger class (e.g. --pdbcls=IPython.core.debugger:Pdb).
Thanks to anntzer_ for the PR.
Changes
Plugins now benefit from assertion rewriting. Thanks
sober7, nicoddemus and flub_ for the PR.
Change report.outcome for xpassed tests to "passed" in non-strict
mode and "failed" in strict mode. Thanks to hackebrot for the PR
(1795) and gprasad84 for report (1546).
Tests marked with xfail(strict=False) (the default) now appear in
JUnitXML reports as passing tests instead of skipped.
Thanks to hackebrot for the PR (1795).
Highlight path of the file location in the error report to make it easier to copy/paste.
Thanks suzaku for the PR (1778).
Fixtures marked with pytest.fixture can now use yield statements exactly like
those marked with the pytest.yield_fixture decorator. This change renders
pytest.yield_fixture deprecated and makes pytest.fixture with yield statements
the preferred way to write teardown code (1461).
Thanks csaftoiu for bringing this to attention and nicoddemus_ for the PR.
Explicitly passed parametrize ids do not get escaped to ascii (1351).
Thanks ceridwen for the PR.
Fixtures are now sorted in the error message displayed when an unknown
fixture is declared in a test function.
Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
pytest_terminal_summary hook now receives the exitstatus
of the test session as argument. Thanks blueyed for the PR (1809).
Parametrize ids can accept None as specific test id, in which case the
automatically generated id for that argument will be used.
Thanks palaviv for the complete PR (1468).
The parameter to xunit-style setup/teardown methods (setup_method,
setup_module, etc.) is now optional and may be omitted.
Thanks okken for bringing this to attention and nicoddemus for the PR.
Improved automatic id generation selection in case of duplicate ids in
parametrize.
Thanks palaviv for the complete PR (1474).
Now pytest warnings summary is shown up by default. Added a new flag
--disable-pytest-warnings to explicitly disable the warnings summary (1668_).
Make ImportError during collection more explicit by reminding
the user to check the name of the test module/package(s) (1426).
Thanks omarkohl for the complete PR (1520_).
Add build/ and dist/ to the default --norecursedirs list. Thanks
mikofski for the report and tomviner for the PR (1544_).
pytest.raises in the context manager form accepts a custom
message to raise when no exception occurred.
Thanks palaviv for the complete PR (1616).
conftest.py files now benefit from assertion rewriting; previously it
was only available for test modules. Thanks flub, sober7 and
nicoddemus for the PR (1619).
Text documents without any doctests no longer appear as "skipped".
Thanks graingert for reporting and providing a full PR (1580).
Ensure that a module within a namespace package can be found when it
is specified on the command line together with the --pyargs
option. Thanks to taschini for the PR (1597).
Always include full assertion explanation during assertion rewriting. The previous behaviour was hiding
sub-expressions that happened to be False, assuming this was redundant information.
Thanks bagerard for reporting (1503). Thanks to davehunt and
tomviner for the PR.
OptionGroup.addoption() now checks if option names were already
added before, to make it easier to track down issues like 1618_.
Before, you only got exceptions later from argparse library,
giving no clue about the actual reason for double-added options.
yield-based tests are considered deprecated and will be removed in pytest-4.0.
Thanks nicoddemus_ for the PR.
[pytest] sections in setup.cfg files should now be named [tool:pytest]
to avoid conflicts with other distutils commands (see 567). [pytest] sections in
pytest.ini or tox.ini files are supported and unchanged.
Thanks nicoddemus for the PR.
Using pytest_funcarg__ prefix to declare fixtures is considered deprecated and will be
removed in pytest-4.0 (1684).
Thanks nicoddemus for the PR.
Passing a command-line string to pytest.main() is considered deprecated and scheduled
for removal in pytest-4.0. It is recommended to pass a list of arguments instead (1723_).
Rename getfuncargvalue to getfixturevalue. getfuncargvalue is
still present but is now considered deprecated. Thanks to RedBeardCode and tomviner
for the PR (1626_).
optparse type usage now triggers DeprecationWarnings (1740_).
Refined logic for determining the rootdir, considering only valid
paths which fixes a number of issues: 1594, 1435 and 1471.
Updated the documentation according to current behavior. Thanks to
blueyed, davehunt and matthiasha for the PR.
Always include full assertion explanation. The previous behaviour was hiding
sub-expressions that happened to be False, assuming this was redundant information.

Better message in case of not using parametrized variable (see 1539).
Thanks to tramwaj29 for the PR.
Updated docstrings with a more uniform style.

No longer display the incorrect test deselection reason (1372).
Thanks ronnypfannschmidt for the PR.
The --resultlog command line option has been deprecated: it is little used
and there are more modern and better alternatives (see 830).
Thanks nicoddemus for the PR.
Improve error message with fixture lookup errors: add an 'E' to the first
line and '>' to the rest. Fixes 717. Thanks blueyed for reporting and
a PR, eolo999 for the initial PR and tomviner for his guidance during
EuroPython2016 sprint.
Bug Fixes
Parametrize now correctly handles duplicated test ids.
Fix internal error issue when the method argument is missing for
teardown_method() (1605_).
Fix exception visualization in case the current working directory (CWD) gets
deleted during testing (1235). Thanks bukzor for reporting. PR by
marscher_.
Improve test output for logical expression with brackets (925).
Thanks DRMacIver for reporting and RedBeardCode_ for the PR.
Create correct diff for strings ending with newlines (1553).
Thanks Vogtinator for reporting and RedBeardCode and
tomviner for the PR.
ConftestImportFailure now shows the traceback making it easier to
identify bugs in conftest.py files (1516). Thanks txomon for
the PR.
Text documents without any doctests no longer appear as "skipped".
Thanks graingert for reporting and providing a full PR (1580).
Fixed collection of classes with custom __new__ method.
Fixes 1579. Thanks to Stranger6667 for the PR.
Fixed scope overriding inside metafunc.parametrize (634).
Thanks to Stranger6667 for the PR.
Fixed the total tests tally in junit xml output (1798).
Thanks to cryporchild for the PR.
Fixed off-by-one error with lines from request.node.warn.
Thanks to blueyed_ for the PR.
slightly backward incompatible: fix issue310: the {posargs} substitution
now properly preserves the tox command line positional arguments. Positional
arguments with spaces are now properly handled.
NOTE: if your tox invocation previously used extra quoting for positional arguments to
work around issue310, you need to remove the quoting. Example:
tox -- "'some string'" has to now be written simply as
tox -- "some string"
thanks holger krekel. You can set minversion = 2.5.0 in the [tox]
section of tox.ini to make sure people using your tox.ini use the correct version.
fix 359: add COMSPEC to default passenv on windows. Thanks
anthrotype.
add support for py36 and py37 and add py36-dev and py37(nightly) to
travis builds of tox. Thanks John Vandenberg.
fix 348: add py2 and py3 as default environments pointing to
"python2" and "python3" basepython executables. Also fix 347 by
updating the list of default envs in the tox basic example.
Thanks Tobias McNulty.
make "-h" and "--help-ini" options work even if there is no tox.ini,
thanks holger krekel.
add {:} substitution, which is replaced with os-specific path
separator, thanks Lukasz Rogalski.
fix 305: downloadcache test env config is now ignored as pip-8
does caching by default. Thanks holger krekel.
output from install command in verbose (-vv) mode is now printed to console instead of
being redirected to file, thanks Lukasz Rogalski
fix 399. Make sure {envtmpdir} is created if it doesn't exist at the
start of a testenvironment run. Thanks Manuel Jacob.
fix 316: Lack of commands key in ini file is now treated as an error.
Reported virtualenv status is 'nothing to do' instead of 'commands
succeeded', with relevant error message displayed. Thanks Lukasz Rogalski.
2.4.1
fix issue380: properly perform substitution again. Thanks Ian
Cordasco.
2.4.0
remove PYTHONPATH from environment during the install phase because a
tox-run should not have hidden dependencies and the test commands will also
not see a PYTHONPATH. If this causes unforeseen problems it may be
reverted in a bugfix release. Thanks Jason R. Coombs.
fix issue352: prevent a configuration where envdir==toxinidir and
refine docs to warn people about changing "envdir". Thanks Oliver Bestwalter and holger krekel.
fix issue375, fix issue330: warn against tox-setup.py integration as
"setup.py test" should really just test with the current interpreter. Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt.
fix issue302: allow cross-testenv substitution where we substitute
with {x,y} generative syntax. Thanks Andrew Pashkin.
fix issue212: allow escaping curly brace chars "{" and "}" if you need the
chars "{" and "}" to appear in your commands or other ini values.
Thanks John Vandenberg.
addresses issue66: add --workdir option to override where tox stores its ".tox" directory
and all of the virtualenv environment. Thanks Danring.
introduce per-venv list_dependencies_command which defaults
to "pip freeze" to obtain the list of installed packages.
Thanks Ted Shaw, Holger Krekel.
close issue66: add documentation to jenkins page on how to avoid
"too long shebang" lines when calling pip from tox. Note that we
can not use "python -m pip install X" by default because the latter
adds the CWD and pip will think X is installed if it is there.
"pip install X" does not do that.
new list_dependencies_command to influence how tox determines
which dependencies are installed in a testenv.
(experimental) New feature: When a search for a config file fails, tox tries loading
setup.cfg with a section prefix of "tox".
fix issue275: Introduce hooks tox_runtest_pre``` and tox_runtest_post`` which run before and after the tests of a venv,
respectively. Thanks to Matthew Schinckel and itxaka serrano.
fix issue317: evaluate minversion before tox config is parsed completely.
Thanks Sachi King for the PR.
added the "extras" environment option to specify the extras to use when doing the
sdist or develop install. Contributed by Alex Grönholm.
use pytest-catchlog instead of pytest-capturelog (latter is not
maintained, uses deprecated pytest API)
2.3.2
fix issue314: fix command invocation with .py scripts on windows.
fix issue279: allow cross-section substitution when the value contains
posargs. Thanks Sachi King for the PR.
