| py.test 2.0.2: bug fixes, improved xfail/skip expressions, speed ups |
| =========================================================================== |
| |
| Welcome to pytest-2.0.2, a maintenance and bug fix release of pytest, |
| a mature testing tool for Python, supporting CPython 2.4-3.2, Jython |
| and latest PyPy interpreters. See the extensive docs with tested examples here: |
| |
| http://pytest.org/ |
| |
| If you want to install or upgrade pytest, just type one of:: |
| |
| pip install -U pytest # or |
| easy_install -U pytest |
| |
| Many thanks to all issue reporters and people asking questions |
| or complaining, particularly Jurko for his insistence, |
| Laura, Victor and Brianna for helping with improving |
| and Ronny for his general advise. |
| |
| best, |

| Changes between 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 |
| ---------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - tackle issue32 - speed up test runs of very quick test functions |
| by reducing the relative overhead |
| |
| - fix issue30 - extended xfail/skipif handling and improved reporting. |
| If you have a syntax error in your skip/xfail |
| expressions you now get nice error reports. |
| |
| Also you can now access module globals from xfail/skipif |
| expressions so that this for example works now:: |
| |
| import pytest |
| import mymodule |
| @pytest.mark.skipif("mymodule.__version__[0] == "1") |
| def test_function(): |
| pass |
| |
| This will not run the test function if the module's version string |
| does not start with a "1". Note that specifying a string instead |
| of a boolean expressions allows py.test to report meaningful information |
| when summarizing a test run as to what conditions lead to skipping |
| (or xfail-ing) tests. |
| |
| - fix issue28 - setup_method and pytest_generate_tests work together |
| The setup_method fixture method now gets called also for |
| test function invocations generated from the pytest_generate_tests |
| hook. |
| |
| - fix issue27 - collectonly and keyword-selection (-k) now work together |
| Also, if you do "py.test --collectonly -q" you now get a flat list |
| of test ids that you can use to paste to the py.test commandline |
| in order to execute a particular test. |
| |
| - fix issue25 avoid reported problems with --pdb and python3.2/encodings output |
| |
| - fix issue23 - tmpdir argument now works on Python3.2 and WindowsXP |
| Starting with Python3.2 os.symlink may be supported. By requiring |
| a newer py lib version the py.path.local() implementation acknowledges |
| this. |
| |
| - fixed typos in the docs (thanks Victor Garcia, Brianna Laugher) and particular |
| thanks to Laura Creighton who also revieved parts of the documentation. |
| |
| - fix slighly wrong output of verbose progress reporting for classes |
| (thanks Amaury) |
| |
| - more precise (avoiding of) deprecation warnings for node.Class|Function accesses |
| |
| - avoid std unittest assertion helper code in tracebacks (thanks Ronny) |
