Such reference cycles unnecessarily cause Python interpreter not to garbage
collect the objects referenced in those cycles as soon they could be collected,
and in turn cause the tests to use more memory than is strictly necessary.

branch : break_ExceptionInfo_reference_cycles
- node.warn() for a node-specific warning
- config.warn() for a global non-node specific warning
Each warning is accompanied by a "warning number" so that we can later
introduce mechanisms for surpressing them.
Each warning will trigger a call to pytest_report_warn(number, node, message)
which is by default implemented by the TerminalReporter which introduces
a new option "-rw" to show details about warnings.
The only remaining 'py.test' references are:
* those referring to the 'py.test' executable
* those in code explicitly testing py.test/pytest module compatibility
* those in old CHANGES documentation
* those in documentation generated based on external data
* those in seemingly unfinished & unmaintained Japanese documentation
Minor stylistic changes and typo corrections made to documentation next to
several applied py.test --> pytest content changes.
The need for comparing two separately instantiated nodes seems to be historic
(related to an already-gone mode of pytest-xdist which would re-collect nodes)
and not actually needed anymore.
in a test invocation will have a corresponding FixtureDef instance.
also fixes issue246 (again).
simplify parametrized fixture teardown by making it work lazy:
during the setup of a parametrized fixture instance any previously
setup instance which was setup with a different param is torn down
before setting up the new one.
The _pytest.config module itself is no longer a plugin but the actual
config instance is plugin-registered as ``pytestconfig``.
This allows to put most pytest specific logic to _pytest.config instead
of in the core pluginmanager.
implemented by a slight internal refactoring and the introduction
of a new hook ``pytest_exception_interact`` hook.
- fix issue341: introduce new experimental hook for IDEs/terminals to
intercept debugging: ``pytest_exception_interact(node, call, report)``.
don't use autouse fixtures for now because it would cause a proliferation
and overhead for the execution of every test. Rather introduce a
node.addfinalizer(fin) to attach a finalizer to the respective node
and call it from node.setup() functions if the setup phase succeeded
(i.e. there is no setup function or it finished successfully)
that argparse does not have Option objects -> added class Argument
Needed explicit call of MyOptionParser.format_epilog as argparse
does not have that. The parse_arg epilog argument wraps the text,
which is not the same (could be handled with a special formatter).
- parser.parse() now returns single argument (with positional args in
.file_or_dir)
- "file_or_dir" made a class variable Config._file_or_dir and used in help and tests
- added code for argcomplete (because of which this all started!)
addoption:
- if option type is a string ('int' or 'string', this converted to
int resp. str
- if option type is 'count' this is changed to the type of choices[0]
testing:
- added tests for Argument
- test_mark.test_keyword_extra split as ['-k', '-mykeyword'] generates argparse
error test split in two and one marked as fail
- testing hints, multiline and more strickt (for if someone moves format_epilog
to epilog argument of parse_args without Formatter)
- test for destination derived from long option with internal dash
- renamed second test_parseopt.test_parse() to test_parse2 as it was
not tested at all (the first was tested.)
