  • v6.2.0.dev0

    September 26, 2020
  • v6.1.2 Changes

    October 28, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.1.2 (2020-10-28)

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    • ๐Ÿ“ฆ #7758: Fixed an issue where some files in packages are getting lost from --lf even though they contain tests that failed. Regressed in pytest 5.4.0.
    • โœ… #7911: Directories created by tmpdir are now considered stale after 3 days without modification (previous value was 3 hours) to avoid deleting directories still in use in long running test suites.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improved Documentation

    • โœ… #7815: Improve deprecation warning message for pytest._fillfuncargs().
  • v6.1.1 Changes

    October 03, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.1.1 (2020-10-03)

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    • โœ… #7807: Fixed regression in pytest 6.1.0 causing incorrect rootdir to be determined in some non-trivial cases where parent directories have config files as well.
    • โœ… #7814: Fixed crash in header reporting when testpaths is used and contains absolute paths (regression in 6.1.0).
  • v6.1.0 Changes

    September 26, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.1.0 (2020-09-26)

    ๐Ÿ’ฅ Breaking Changes

    โœ… #5585: As per our policy, the following features which have been deprecated in the 5.X series are now
    โœ‚ removed:

    • The funcargnames read-only property of FixtureRequest, Metafunc, and Function classes. Use fixturenames attribute.
    • @pytest.fixture no longer supports positional arguments, pass all arguments by keyword instead.
    • Direct construction of Node subclasses now raise an error, use from_parent instead.
    • The default value for junit_family has changed to xunit2. If you require the old format, add junit_family=xunit1 to your configuration file.
    • The TerminalReporter no longer has a writer attribute. Plugin authors may use the public functions of the TerminalReporter instead of accessing the TerminalWriter object directly.
    • The --result-log option has been removed. Users are recommended to use the pytest-reportlog plugin instead.

    For more information consult
    โœ… Deprecations and Removals in the docs.

    ๐Ÿ—„ Deprecations

    โœ… #6981: The pytest.collect module is deprecated: all its names can be imported from pytest directly.

    โœ… #7097: The pytest._fillfuncargs function is deprecated. This function was kept
    ๐Ÿ”Œ for backward compatibility with an older plugin.

    It's functionality is not meant to be used directly, but if you must replace
    it, use function._request._fillfixtures() instead, though note this is not
    a public API and may break in the future.

    โœ… #7210: The special -k '-expr' syntax to -k is deprecated. Use -k 'not expr'
    instead.

    ๐Ÿ—„ The special -k 'expr:' syntax to -k is deprecated. Please open an issue
    if you use this and want a replacement.

    โš  #7255: The pytest_warning_captured <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_warning_captured> hook is deprecated in favor
    โš  of pytest_warning_recorded <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_warning_recorded>, and will be removed in a future version.

    ๐Ÿ“ฆ #7648: The gethookproxy() and isinitpath() methods of FSCollector and Package are deprecated;
    ๐Ÿ‘‰ use self.session.gethookproxy() and self.session.isinitpath() instead.
    โœ… This should work on all pytest versions.

    ๐Ÿ”‹ Features

    • โœ… #7667: New --durations-min command-line flag controls the minimal duration for inclusion in the slowest list of tests shown by --durations. Previously this was hard-coded to 0.005s.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improvements

    โœ… #6681: Internal pytest warnings issued during the early stages of initialization are now properly handled and can filtered through filterwarnings or --pythonwarnings/-W.

    โœ… This also fixes a number of long standing issues: #2891, #7620, #7426.

    โœ… #7572: When a plugin listed in required_plugins is missing or an unknown config key is used with --strict-config, a simple error message is now shown instead of a stacktrace.

    โœ… #7685: Added two new attributes rootpath <_pytest.config.Config.rootpath> and inipath <_pytest.config.Config.inipath> to Config <_pytest.config.Config>.
    โœ… These attributes are pathlib.Path versions of the existing rootdir <_pytest.config.Config.rootdir> and inifile <_pytest.config.Config.inifile> attributes,
    and should be preferred over them when possible.

    โœ… #7780: Public classes which are not designed to be inherited from are now marked @final.
    Code which inherits from these classes will trigger a type-checking (e.g. mypy) error, but will still work in runtime.
    Currently the final designation does not appear in the API Reference but hopefully will in the future.

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    โœ… #1953: Fixed error when overwriting a parametrized fixture, while also reusing the super fixture value.

    # conftest.py
    import pytest
    
    
    @pytest.fixture(params=[1, 2])
    def foo(request):
        return request.param
    
    
    # test_foo.py
    import pytest
    
    
    @pytest.fixture
    def foo(foo):
        return foo * 2
    

    โœ… #4984: Fixed an internal error crash with IndexError: list index out of range when
    collecting a module which starts with a decorated function, the decorator
    raises, and assertion rewriting is enabled.

    ๐Ÿ‘• #7591: pylint shouldn't complain anymore about unimplemented abstract methods when inheriting from File <non-python tests>.

    ๐Ÿ #7628: Fixed test collection when a full path without a drive letter was passed to pytest on Windows (for example \projects\tests\test.py instead of c:\projects\tests\pytest.py).

    ๐Ÿ #7638: Fix handling of command-line options that appear as paths but trigger an OS-level syntax error on Windows, such as the options used internally by pytest-xdist.

    โœ… #7742: Fixed INTERNALERROR when accessing locals / globals with faulty exec.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improved Documentation

    • ๐Ÿšš #1477: Removed faq.rst and its reference in contents.rst.

    Trivial/Internal Changes

    • โœ… #7536: The internal junitxml plugin has rewritten to use xml.etree.ElementTree.
      The order of attributes in XML elements might differ. Some unneeded escaping is
      no longer performed.
    • ๐Ÿ“ฆ #7587: The dependency on the more-itertools package has been removed.
    • โœ… #7631: The result type of capfd.readouterr() <_pytest.capture.CaptureFixture.readouterr> (and similar) is no longer a namedtuple,
      but should behave like one in all respects. This was done for technical reasons.
    • โœ… #7671: When collecting tests, pytest finds test classes and functions by examining the
      attributes of python objects (modules, classes and instances). To speed up this
      process, pytest now ignores builtin attributes (like __class__,
      __delattr__ and __new__) without consulting the python_classes and
      ๐Ÿ”ง python_functions configuration options and without passing them to plugins
      using the pytest_pycollect_makeitem <_pytest.hookspec.pytest_pycollect_makeitem> hook.
  • v6.0.2 Changes

    September 11, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.0.2 (2020-09-04)

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    • โœ… #7148: Fixed --log-cli potentially causing unrelated print output to be swallowed.
    • โช #7672: Fixed log-capturing level restored incorrectly if caplog.set_level is called more than once.
    • โœ… #7686: Fixed NotSetType.token being used as the parameter ID when the parametrization list is empty.
      โœ… Regressed in pytest 6.0.0.
    • ๐Ÿ’… #7707: Fix internal error when handling some exceptions that contain multiple lines or the style uses multiple lines (--tb=line for example).
  • v6.0.1 Changes

    July 30, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.0.1 (2020-07-30)

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    • โœ… #7394: Passing an empty help value to Parser.add_option is now accepted instead of crashing when running pytest --help.
      Passing None raises a more informative TypeError.
    • ๐Ÿ‘• #7558: Fix pylint not-callable lint on pytest.mark.parametrize() and the other builtin marks:
      โš  skip, skipif, xfail, usefixtures, filterwarnings.
    • โœ… #7559: Fix regression in plugins using TestReport.longreprtext (such as pytest-html) when TestReport.longrepr is not a string.
    • โœ… #7569: Fix logging capture handler's level not reset on teardown after a call to caplog.set_level().
  • v6.0.0 Changes

    July 28, 2020

    โœ… pytest 6.0.0 (2020-07-28)

    ๐Ÿš€ ( Please see the full set of changes for this release also in the 6.0.0rc1 notes below )

    ๐Ÿ’ฅ Breaking Changes

    โœ… #5584: PytestDeprecationWarning are now errors by default.

    ๐Ÿšš Following our plan to remove deprecated features with as little disruption as
    โœ… possible, all warnings of type PytestDeprecationWarning now generate errors
    โš  instead of warning messages.

    ๐Ÿšš The affected features will be effectively removed in pytest 6.1 , so please consult the
    โœ… Deprecations and Removals
    โšก๏ธ section in the docs for directions on how to update existing code.

    โœ… In the pytest 6.0.X series, it is possible to change the errors back into warnings as a
    โœ… stopgap measure by adding this to your pytest.ini file:

    [pytest]
    filterwarnings =
        ignore::pytest.PytestDeprecationWarning
    

    ๐Ÿš€ But this will stop working when pytest 6.1 is released.

    If you have concerns about the removal of a specific feature, please add a
    โœ… comment to #5584.

    #7472: The exec_() and is_true() methods of _pytest._code.Frame have been removed.

    ๐Ÿ”‹ Features

    • #7464: Added support for NO_COLOR and FORCE_COLOR environment variables to control colored output.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improvements

    • โœ… #7467: --log-file CLI option and log_file ini marker now create subdirectories if needed.
    • โœ… #7489: The pytest.raises function has a clearer error message when match equals the obtained string but is not a regex match. In this case it is suggested to escape the regex.

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    • โœ… #7392: Fix the reported location of tests skipped with @pytest.mark.skip when --runxfail is used.
    • ๐Ÿ”’ #7491: tmpdir and tmp_path no longer raise an error if the lock to check for
      stale temporary directories is not accessible.
    • โœ… #7517: Preserve line endings when captured via capfd.
    • #7534: Restored the previous formatting of TracebackEntry. __str__ which was changed by accident.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improved Documentation

    • โœ… #7422: Clarified when the usefixtures mark can apply fixtures to test.
    • โœ… #7441: Add a note about -q option used in getting started guide.

    Trivial/Internal Changes

    • ๐Ÿ“ฆ #7389: Fixture scope package is no longer considered experimental.

    โœ… pytest 6.0.0rc1 (2020-07-08)

    ๐Ÿ’ฅ Breaking Changes

    โœ… #1316: TestReport.longrepr is now always an instance of ReprExceptionInfo. Previously it was a str when a test failed with pytest.fail(..., pytrace=False).

    โœ… #5965: symlinks are no longer resolved during collection and matching conftest.py files with test file paths.

    ๐Ÿ›  Resolving symlinks for the current directory and during collection was introduced as a bugfix in 3.9.0, but it actually is a new feature which had unfortunate consequences in Windows and surprising results in other platforms.

    ๐Ÿ‘€ The team decided to step back on resolving symlinks at all, planning to review this in the future with a more solid solution (see discussion in
    โœ… #6523 for details).

    โœ… This might break test suites which made use of this feature; the fix is to create a symlink
    โœ… for the entire test tree, and not only to partial files/tress as it was possible previously.

    โœ… #6505: Testdir.run().parseoutcomes() now always returns the parsed nouns in plural form.

    ๐Ÿ“œ Originally parseoutcomes() would always returns the nouns in plural form, but a change
    โš  meant to improve the terminal summary by using singular form single items (1 warning or 1 error)
    ๐Ÿ“œ caused an unintended regression by changing the keys returned by parseoutcomes().

    Now the API guarantees to always return the plural form, so calls like this:

    result = testdir.runpytest()
    result.assert_outcomes(error=1)
    

    Need to be changed to:

    result = testdir.runpytest()
    result.assert_outcomes(errors=1)
    

    โœ… #6903: The os.dup() function is now assumed to exist. We are not aware of any
    ๐Ÿ‘Œ supported Python 3 implementations which do not provide it.

    โœ… #7040: -k no longer matches against the names of the directories outside the test session root.

    ๐Ÿ“ฆ Also, pytest.Package.name is now just the name of the directory containing the package's
    __init__.py file, instead of the full path. This is consistent with how the other nodes
    are named, and also one of the reasons why -k would match against any directory containing
    โœ… the test suite.

    โœ… #7122: Expressions given to the -m and -k options are no longer evaluated using Python's eval.
    ๐Ÿ‘ The format supports or, and, not, parenthesis and general identifiers to match against.
    Python constants, keywords or other operators are no longer evaluated differently.

    โœ… #7135: Pytest now uses its own TerminalWriter class instead of using the one from the py library.
    ๐Ÿ”Œ Plugins generally access this class through TerminalReporter.writer, TerminalReporter.write()
    โœ… (and similar methods), or _pytest.config.create_terminal_writer().

    The following breaking changes were made:

    • Output (write() method and others) no longer flush implicitly; the flushing behavior
      of the underlying file is respected. To flush explicitly (for example, if you
      ๐Ÿ–จ want output to be shown before an end-of-line is printed), use write(flush=True) or
      terminal_writer.flush().
    • Explicit Windows console support was removed, delegated to the colorama library.
    • Support for writing bytes was removed.
    • The reline method and chars_on_current_line property were removed.
    • The stringio and encoding arguments was removed.

    - Support for passing a callable instead of a file was removed.

    ๐ŸŒฒ #7224: The item.catch_log_handler and item.catch_log_handlers attributes, set by the
    ๐Ÿ”Œ logging plugin and never meant to be public , are no longer available.

    ๐Ÿšš The deprecated --no-print-logs option is removed. Use --show-capture instead.

    #7226: Removed the unused args parameter from pytest.Function. __init__.

    โœ… #7418: Removed the pytest_doctest_prepare_content hook specification. This hook
    โœ… hasn't been triggered by pytest for at least 10 years.

    โœ… #7438: Some changes were made to the internal _pytest._code.source, listed here
    ๐Ÿ”Œ for the benefit of plugin authors who may be using it:

    • The deindent argument to Source() has been removed, now it is always true.
    • Support for zero or multiple arguments to Source() has been removed.
    • Support for comparing Source with an str has been removed.
    • The methods Source.isparseable() and Source.putaround() have been removed.
    • The method Source.compile() and function _pytest._code.compile() have
      ๐Ÿšš been removed; use plain compile() instead.
    • The function _pytest._code.source.getsource() has been removed; use
      Source() directly instead.

    ๐Ÿ—„ Deprecations

    โœ… #7210: The special -k '-expr' syntax to -k is deprecated. Use -k 'not expr'
    instead.

    ๐Ÿ—„ The special -k 'expr:' syntax to -k is deprecated. Please open an issue
    if you use this and want a replacement.

    โš  #4049: pytest_warning_captured is deprecated in favor of the pytest_warning_recorded hook.

    ๐Ÿ”‹ Features

    ๐Ÿ”ง #1556: pytest now supports pyproject.toml files for configuration.

    ๐Ÿ”ง The configuration options is similar to the one available in other formats, but must be defined
    โœ… in a [tool.pytest.ini_options] table to be picked up by pytest:

    # pyproject.toml
    [tool.pytest.ini_options]
    minversion = "6.0"
    addopts = "-ra -q"
    testpaths = [
        "tests",
        "integration",
    ]
    

    ๐Ÿ”ง More information can be found in the docs.

    โœ… #3342: pytest now includes inline type annotations and exposes them to user programs.
    Most of the user-facing API is covered, as well as internal code.

    โœ… If you are running a type checker such as mypy on your tests, you may start
    noticing type errors indicating incorrect usage. If you run into an error that
    you believe to be incorrect, please let us know in an issue.

    The types were developed against mypy version 0.780. Versions before 0.750
    โœ… are known not to work. We recommend using the latest version. Other type
    checkers may work as well, but they are not officially verified to work by
    โœ… pytest yet.

    โš  #4049: Introduced a new hook named pytest_warning_recorded to convey information about warnings captured by the internal pytest warnings plugin.

    โš  This hook is meant to replace pytest_warning_captured, which is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

    โœ… #6471: New command-line flags:

    • --no-header: disables the initial header, including platform, version, and plugins.

    - --no-summary: disables the final test summary, including warnings.

    โœ… #6856: A warning is now shown when an unknown key is read from a config INI file.

    โš  The --strict-config flag has been added to treat these warnings as errors.

    โœ… #6906: Added --code-highlight command line option to enable/disable code highlighting in terminal output.

    โœ… #7245: New --import-mode=importlib option that uses importlib to import test modules.

    Traditionally pytest used __import__ while changing sys.path to import test modules (which
    โœ… also changes sys.modules as a side-effect), which works but has a number of drawbacks, like requiring test modules
    ๐Ÿ“ฆ that don't live in packages to have unique names (as they need to reside under a unique name in sys.modules).

    --import-mode=importlib uses more fine grained import mechanisms from importlib which don't
    โœ… require pytest to change sys.path or sys.modules at all, eliminating much of the drawbacks
    of the previous mode.

    0๏ธโƒฃ We intend to make --import-mode=importlib the default in future versions, so users are encouraged
    โœ… to try the new mode and provide feedback (both positive or negative) in issue #7245.

    ๐Ÿ“š You can read more about this option in the documentation.

    ๐Ÿ”ง #7305: New required_plugins configuration option allows the user to specify a list of plugins, including version information, that are required for pytest to run. An error is raised if any required plugins are not found when running pytest.

    ๐Ÿ‘Œ Improvements

    โœ… #4375: The pytest command now suppresses the BrokenPipeError error message that
    โœ… is printed to stderr when the output of pytest is piped and and the pipe is
    closed by the piped-to program (common examples are less and head).

    โœ… #4391: Improved precision of test durations measurement. CallInfo items now have a new <CallInfo>.duration attribute, created using time.perf_counter(). This attribute is used to fill the <TestReport>.duration attribute, which is more accurate than the previous <CallInfo>.stop - <CallInfo>.start (as these are based on time.time()).

    โœ… #4675: Rich comparison for dataclasses and attrs-classes is now recursive.

    โœ… #6285: Exposed the pytest.FixtureLookupError exception which is raised by request.getfixturevalue()
    (where request is a FixtureRequest fixture) when a fixture with the given name cannot be returned.

    โœ… #6433: If an error is encountered while formatting the message in a logging call, for
    โš  example logging.warning("oh no!: %s: %s", "first") (a second argument is
    โœ… missing), pytest now propagates the error, likely causing the test to fail.

    ๐Ÿ–จ Previously, such a mistake would cause an error to be printed to stderr, which
    โœ… is not displayed by default for passing tests. This change makes the mistake
    โœ… visible during testing.

    You may supress this behavior temporarily or permanently by setting
    ๐Ÿ‘€ logging.raiseExceptions = False.

    โœ… #6817: Explicit new-lines in help texts of command-line options are preserved, allowing plugins better control
    of the help displayed to users.

    โœ… #6940: When using the --duration option, the terminal message output is now more precise about the number and duration of hidden items.

    โœ… #6991: Collected files are displayed after any reports from hooks, e.g. the status from --lf.

    โœ… #7091: When fd capturing is used, through --capture=fd or the capfd and
    capfdbinary fixtures, and the file descriptor (0, 1, 2) cannot be
    duplicated, FD capturing is still performed. Previously, direct writes to the
    file descriptors would fail or be lost in this case.

    โœ… #7119: Exit with an error if the --basetemp argument is empty, is the current working directory or is one of the parent directories.
    This is done to protect against accidental data loss, as any directory passed to this argument is cleared.

    โœ… #7128: pytest --version now displays just the pytest version, while pytest --version --version displays more verbose information including plugins. This is more consistent with how other tools show --version.

    #7133: caplog.set_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.set_level> will now override any log_level set via the CLI or configuration file.

    #7159: caplog.set_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.set_level> and caplog.at_level() <_pytest.logging.LogCaptureFixture.at_level> no longer affect
    ๐ŸŒฒ the level of logs that are shown in the Captured log report report section.

    โœ… #7348: Improve recursive diff report for comparison asserts on dataclasses / attrs.

    โœ… #7385: --junitxml now includes the exception cause in the message XML attribute for failures during setup and teardown.

    Previously:

    <error message="test setup failure">
    

    Now:

    <error message="failed on setup with &quot;ValueError: Some error during setup&quot;">
    

    ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes

    ๐Ÿšš #1120: Fix issue where directories from tmpdir are not removed properly when multiple instances of pytest are running in parallel.

    โœ… #4583: Prevent crashing and provide a user-friendly error when a marker expression (-m) invoking of eval raises any exception.

    โœ… #4677: The path shown in the summary report for SKIPPED tests is now always relative. Previously it was sometimes absolute.

    ๐Ÿ”’ #5456: Fix a possible race condition when trying to remove lock files used to control access to folders
    created by tmp_path and tmpdir.

    โœ… #6240: Fixes an issue where logging during collection step caused duplication of log
    messages to stderr.

    โœ… #6428: Paths appearing in error messages are now correct in case the current working directory has
    ๐Ÿ”„ changed since the start of the session.

    ๐Ÿ #6755: Support deleting paths longer than 260 characters on windows created inside tmpdir.

    โœ… #6871: Fix crash with captured output when using capsysbinary.

    โช #6909: Revert the change introduced by #6330, which required all arguments to @pytest.mark.parametrize to be explicitly defined in the function signature.

    โช The intention of the original change was to remove what was expected to be an unintended/surprising behavior, but it turns out many people relied on it, so the restriction has been reverted.

    โœ… #6910: Fix crash when plugins return an unknown stats while using the --reportlog option.

    โœ… #6924: Ensure a unittest.IsolatedAsyncioTestCase is actually awaited.

    โœ… #6925: Fix TerminalRepr instances to be hashable again.

    โœ… #6947: Fix regression where functions registered with unittest.TestCase.addCleanup were not being called on test failures.

    โœ… #6951: Allow users to still set the deprecated TerminalReporter.writer attribute.

    โœ… #6956: Prevent pytest from printing ConftestImportFailure traceback to stdout.

    โœ… #6991: Fix regressions with --lf filtering too much since pytest 5.4.

    โช #6992: Revert "tmpdir: clean up indirection via config for factories" #6767 as it breaks pytest-xdist.

    โœ… #7061: When a yielding fixture fails to yield a value, report a test setup error instead of crashing.

    โœ… #7076: The path of file skipped by @pytest.mark.skip in the SKIPPED report is now relative to invocation directory. Previously it was relative to root directory.

    โœ… #7110: Fixed regression: asyncbase.TestCase tests are executed correctly again.

    โœ… #7126: --setup-show now doesn't raise an error when a bytes value is used as a parametrize
    parameter when Python is called with the -bb flag.

    โœ… #7143: Fix pytest.File.from_parent so it forwards extra keyword arguments to the constructor.

    #7145: Classes with broken __getattribute__ methods are displayed correctly during failures.

    โœ… #7150: Prevent hiding the underlying exception when ConfTestImportFailure is raised.

    #7180: Fix _is_setup_py for files encoded differently than locale.

    โœ… #7215: Fix regression where running with --pdb would call unittest.TestCase.tearDown for skipped tests.

    โœ… #7253: When using pytest.fixture on a function directly, as in pytest.fixture(func),
    if the autouse or params arguments are also passed, the function is no longer
