# pytest 7.2.0 (2022-10-23)
## Deprecations
- [#10012](https://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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 `{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
- [#9886](https://togithub.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 `{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
## Features
- [#9897](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9897): Added shell-style wildcard support to `testpaths`.
## Improvements
- [#10218](https://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9742): Display assertion message without escaped newline characters with `-vv`.
- [#9823](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9823): Improved error message that is shown when no collector is found for a given file.
- [#9873](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9873): Some coloring has been added to the short test summary.
- [#9883](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9883): Normalize the help description of all command-line options.
- [#9920](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9920): Display full crash messages in `short test summary info`, when runng in a CI environment.
- [#9987](https://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10382): Do not break into pdb when `raise unittest.SkipTest()` appears top-level in a file.
- [#7792](https://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9877): Ensure `caplog.get_records(when)` returns current/correct data after invoking `caplog.clear()`.
## Improved Documentation
- [#10344](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10344): Update information on writing plugins to use `pyproject.toml` instead of `setup.py`.
- [#9248](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9248): The documentation is now built using Sphinx 5.x (up from 3.x previously).
- [#9291](https://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.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://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9906): Made `_pytest.compat` re-export `importlib_metadata` in the eyes of type checkers.
- [#9910](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9910): Fix default encoding warning (`EncodingWarning`) in `cacheprovider`
- [#9984](https://togithub.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.

### [`v3.0.2`](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#pytest-xdist-302-2022-10-25)
[Compare Source](https://togithub.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/compare/v2.5.0...v3.0.2)
\===============================
## Bug Fixes
- `#813 `\_: Cancel shutdown when a crashed worker is restarted.
## Deprecations
- `#825 `\_: The `--rsyncdir` command line argument and `rsyncdirs` config variable are deprecated.
The rsync feature will be removed in pytest-xdist 4.0.
- `#826 `\_: The `--looponfail` command line argument and `looponfailroots` config variable are deprecated.
The loop-on-fail feature will be removed in pytest-xdist 4.0.
## Improved Documentation
- `#791 `\_: Document the `pytest_xdist_auto_num_workers` hook.
- `#796 `\_: Added known limitations section to documentation.
- `#829 `\_: Document the `-n logical` option.
## Features
- `#792 `\_: The environment variable `PYTEST_XDIST_AUTO_NUM_WORKERS` can now be used to
specify the default for `-n auto` and `-n logical`.
- `#812 `\_: Partially restore old initial batch distribution algorithm in `LoadScheduling`.
pytest orders tests for optimal sequential execution - i. e. avoiding
unnecessary setup and teardown of fixtures. So executing tests in consecutive
chunks is important for optimal performance.
In v1.14, initial test distribution in `LoadScheduling` was changed to
round-robin, optimized for the corner case, when the number of tests is less
than `2 * number of nodes`. At the same time, it became worse for all other
cases.
For example: if some tests use some "heavy" fixture, and these tests fit into
the initial batch, with round-robin distribution the fixture will be created
`min(n_tests, n_workers)` times, no matter how many other tests there are.
With the old algorithm (before v1.14), if there are enough tests not using
the fixture, the fixture was created only once.
So restore the old behavior for typical cases where the number of tests is
much greater than the number of workers (or, strictly speaking, when there
are at least 2 tests for every node).
## Removals
- `#468 `\_: The `--boxed` command-line option has been removed. If you still need this functionality, install `pytest-forked `\__ separately.
## Trivial Changes
- `#468 `\_: The `py` dependency has been dropped.
- `#822 `\_: Replace internal usage of `py.log` with a custom solution (but with the same interface).
- `#823 `\_: Remove usage of `py._pydir` as an rsync candidate.
- `#824 `\_: Replace internal usages of `py.path.local` by `pathlib.Path`.
