You might consider writing a test that raises an exception with pytest>=3.6

Absolutely. One thing I plan to do is more-closely integrate the testing of the pytest plugin with datatest as a whole--currently the plugin tests are handled in a separate development-only repository (https://github.com/shawnbrown/pytest-datatest).

Wow, you were quick :) Do you plan to deploy a stable build to pip in the near future?

I will look at pushing a patch to fix #42 later today as 0.9.3.

And in February, I will be releasing 0.9.4 with some additional features:​

• Added builtin validation options for approx, subset, superset, unique, fuzzy, etc.
• Added builtin allowance for fuzzy matching.
• Added Predicate class to formalize behavior and provide inverse-matching with the inversion operator (~).
• Added unwrap() method to the Query class to unwrap single-item sequences or sets.
• Fixed improper use of assert statements with appropriate conditional checks and error behavior.
• Added BaseRequirement class to formalize requirement behavior with a new class hierarchy. This provides a cleaner way for users to implement custom validation behavior and makes the underlying codebase easier to maintain.
• Changed "How To" examples using the new validation options.
• Added improved docstrings for Query methods.

OK. The patch release has been pushed to PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/datatest/#history).

You should be able to upgrade from PyPI with:

pip install -U datatest

2019-01-29 (0.9.3)

• Changed bundled pytest plugin to version 0.1.3:
  • This update adds testing and support for latest versions of Pytest and Python (now tested using Pytest 3.3 to 4.1 and Python 2.7 to 3.7).
  • Changed handling for 'mandatory' marker to support older and newer Pytest versions.
