New Features
- New pytest.mark.skip mark, which unconditionally skips marked tests.
- --doctest-glob may now be passed multiple times in the command-line.
- New -rp and -rP reporting options give the summary and full output of passing
tests, respectively.
- pytest.mark.xfail now has a strict option which makes XPASS tests to fail the
test suite, defaulting to False. There’s also a xfail_strict ini option that
can be used to configure it project-wise.
- Parser.addini now supports options of type bool.
- New ALLOW_BYTES doctest option strips b prefixes from byte strings in doctest
output (similar to ALLOW_UNICODE).
- give a hint on KeyboardInterrupt to use the –fulltrace option to show the
errors
- catch IndexError exceptions when getting exception source location. This
fixes pytest internal error for dynamically generated code (fixtures and
tests) where source lines are fake by intention
Changes
- Important: py.code has been merged into the pytest repository as
pytest._code. This decision was made because py.code had very few uses
outside pytest and the fact that it was in a different repository made it
difficult to fix bugs on its code in a timely manner. The team hopes with
this to be able to better refactor out and improve that code. This change
shouldn’t affect users, but it is useful to let users aware if they encounter
any strange behavior.
Keep in mind that the code for pytest._code is private and experimental, so
you definitely should not import it explicitly!
Please note that the original py.code is still available in pylib.
- pytest_enter_pdb now optionally receives the pytest config object.
- Removed code and documentation for Python 2.5 or lower versions, including
removal of the obsolete _pytest.assertion.oldinterpret module.
- Comparisons now always show up in full when CI or BUILD_NUMBER is found in
the environment, even when -vv isn’t used.
- --lf and --ff now support long names: --last-failed and --failed-first
respectively.
- Added expected exceptions to pytest.raises fail message
- Collection only displays progress (“collecting X items”) when in a terminal.
This avoids cluttering the output when using --color=yes to obtain colors in
CI integrations systems
Bug Fixes
- The -s and -c options should now work under xdist; Config.fromdictargs now
represents its input much more faithfully.
- support Python 3.5’s @ operator in assertion rewriting.
- Fix formatting utf-8 explanation messages.
- Fix traceback style docs to describe all of the available options
(auto/long/short/line/native/no), with auto being the default since v2.6.
- junit record_xml_property doesn’t allow multiple records with same name.
- Warn if using xmlconfig.file, self.loadZCML is the preferred option.
- Avoid false reports by suffixing an opening parenthesis on all methods.
- Add decorators from zope.interface and zope.component.
Due to the bugfix we can also remove the D001 suppression.
- The ``no_xvfb``-marker is now registered automatically so pytest doesn't fail
when run with ``--strict``.
- The ``xvfb`` fixture is now session-scoped.
Before this change, adding a new logging message involving logging e.g. the
default duckduckgo setting value failed.
Now we basically use a black- instead of a whitelist and only fail if we get a
load status message for duckduckgo.
- PropertyMock is now accessible from mocker.
- Fix regression using one of the assert_* methods in patched functions which
receive a parameter named method.
- Remove duplication from the environment section
- Dropped support for Python 3.2
- Indicated setup and teardown in report
- Fixed colour of errors in report
- Fix version parsing of py.test to work with py.test release candidates
- More general handling of the health check problem where things could fail
because of a cache miss - now one "free" example is generated before the start
of the health check run.
- Fix a bug where Hypothesis would error when running on Python 2.7.3 or earlier
because it was trying to pass a bytearray object to struct.unpack (which is
only supported since 2.7.4).
Issues #1269, #866
qutebrowser would crash when XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR was set to some
non-absolute value (which should not happen, but it can) and
"storage -> download-dir" was empty, since when the user didn't give an
absolute filename, even the joined path of download_dir() (i.e.
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR in this case) and the filename was not absolute either.
Since the path was not absolute, create_full_filename returned None,
which meant that os.path.basename(self._filename) raised an exception.
Now we display an error message and fall back to $HOME.
Trying to get the device location while running the tests can trigger all kind
of funny effects.
Since we can't easily mock the GPS responses, we only run those on the CI where
we at least have some predictable setup.
Fixes#1297.
We used to use flake8-pep257 because docstrings claims no codes are ignorable
(which is wrong). However, that doesn't work with pydocstyle, so we had a
separate pydocstyle environment (and flake8-pep257 to check tests with relaxed
rules).
Now we only use flake8-docstrings + pydocstyle (which it switches to if it's
available, even though it still depends on pep257), and drop the pydocstyle tox
env.
As soon as flake8-docstrings is updated to drop the (unneeded) pep257
dependency, we can drop it as well.
