- When combining data files, unreadable files will now generate a warning
instead of failing the command. This is more in line with the older
coverage.py v3.7.1 behavior, which silently ignored unreadable files.
- The --skip-covered option would skip reporting on 100% covered files, but
also skipped them when calculating total coverage. This was wrong, it should
only remove lines from the report, not change the final answer. This is now
fixed.
- In 4.0, the data file recorded a summary of the system on which it was run.
Combined data files would keep all of those summaries. This could lead to
enormous data files consisting of mostly repetitive useless information. That
summary is now gone. If you want summary information,
get in touch, and we'll figure out a better way to do it.
- Test suites that mocked os.path.exists would experience strange failures, due
to coverage.py using their mock inadvertently. This is now fixed.
- Importing a ``__init__`` module explicitly would lead to an error:
``AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__path__'``. This is now
fixed.
- Code that uses ``sys.settrace(sys.gettrace())`` used to incur a more than 2x
speed penalty. Now there's no penalty at all.
- Pyexpat C code will no longer be recorded as a source file.
- The source kit now contains all of the files needed to have a complete source
tree.
* configuration: have a stable order for sections
* testlib: clean out deprecated TestCase methods, move pytest specifics to pytest.py
* fix a few python3 bugs in umessage, configuration and optik_ext modules
* testlib: report failures and skips in generative tests properly
* optik_ext: return bytes as ints and not floats
- Colour progressbar correctly for low number of tests
- Fix error case when deactivating pytest-sugar using --lf together with
--nosugar
- --nosugar deprecated, use -p no:sugar
Upstream changelog:
New Features
- Added the D104 error code - "Missing docstring in public package". This new
error is turned on by default. Missing docstring in __init__.py files which
previously resulted in D100 errors ("Missing docstring in public module")
will now result in D104.
- Added the D105 error code - "Missing docstring in magic method'. This new
error is turned on by default. Missing docstrings in magic method which
previously resulted in D102 error ("Missing docstring in public method") will
now result in D105. Note that exceptions to this rule are variadic magic
methods - specifically __init__, __call__ and __new__, which will be
considered non-magic and missing docstrings in them will result in D102.
- Support the option to exclude all error codes. Running pep257 with --select=
(or select= in the configuration file) will exclude all errors which could
then be added one by one using add-select. Useful for projects new to pep257.
- Added check D211: No blank lines allowed before class docstring. This change
is a result of a change to the official PEP257 convention. Therefore, D211
will now be checked by default instead of D203, which required a single blank
line before a class docstring.
- Configuration files are now handled correctly. The closer a configuration
file is to a checked file the more it matters. Configuration files no longer
support explain, source, debug, verbose or count.
Bug Fixes
- On Python 2.x, D302 ("Use u""" for Unicode docstrings") is not reported if
unicode_literals is imported from __future__.
- Fixed a bug where there was no executable for pep257 on Windows.
