+pytest 4.5.0 (2019-05-11)
+=========================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#4826 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4826>`_: A warning is now emitted when unknown marks are used as a decorator.
+  This is often due to a typo, which can lead to silently broken tests.
+
+
+- `#4907 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4907>`_: Show XFail reason as part of JUnitXML message field.
+
+
+- `#5013 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5013>`_: Messages from crash reports are displayed within test summaries now, truncated to the terminal width.
+
+
+- `#5023 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5023>`_: New flag ``--strict-markers`` that triggers an error when unknown markers (e.g. those not registered using the `markers option`_ in the configuration file) are used in the test suite.
+
+  The existing ``--strict`` option has the same behavior currently, but can be augmented in the future for additional checks.
+
+  .. _`markers option`: https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/reference.html#confval-markers
+
+
+- `#5026 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5026>`_: Assertion failure messages for sequences and dicts contain the number of different items now.
+
+
+- `#5034 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5034>`_: Improve reporting with ``--lf`` and ``--ff`` (run-last-failure).
+
+
+- `#5035 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5035>`_: The ``--cache-show`` option/action accepts an optional glob to show only matching cache entries.
+
+
+- `#5059 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5059>`_: Standard input (stdin) can be given to pytester's ``Testdir.run()`` and ``Testdir.popen()``.
+
+
+- `#5068 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5068>`_: The ``-r`` option learnt about ``A`` to display all reports (including passed ones) in the short test summary.
+
+
+- `#5108 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5108>`_: The short test summary is displayed after passes with output (``-rP``).
+
+
+- `#5172 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5172>`_: The ``--last-failed`` (``--lf``) option got smarter and will now skip entire files if all tests
+  of that test file have passed in previous runs, greatly speeding up collection.
+
+
+- `#5177 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5177>`_: Introduce new specific warning ``PytestWarning`` subclasses to make it easier to filter warnings based on the class, rather than on the message. The new subclasses are:
+
+
+  * ``PytestAssertRewriteWarning``
+
+  * ``PytestCacheWarning``
+
+  * ``PytestCollectionWarning``
+
+  * ``PytestConfigWarning``
+
+  * ``PytestUnhandledCoroutineWarning``
+
+  * ``PytestUnknownMarkWarning``
+
+
+- `#5202 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5202>`_: New ``record_testsuite_property`` session-scoped fixture allows users to log ``<property>`` tags at the ``testsuite``
+  level with the ``junitxml`` plugin.
+
+  The generated XML is compatible with the latest xunit standard, contrary to
+  the properties recorded by ``record_property`` and ``record_xml_attribute``.
+
+
+- `#5214 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5214>`_: The default logging format has been changed to improve readability. Here is an
+  example of a previous logging message::
+
+      test_log_cli_enabled_disabled.py    3 CRITICAL critical message logged by test
+
+  This has now become::
+
+      CRITICAL root:test_log_cli_enabled_disabled.py:3 critical message logged by test
+
+  The formatting can be changed through the `log_format <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/reference.html#confval-log_format>`__ configuration option.
+
+
+- `#5220 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5220>`_: ``--fixtures`` now also shows fixture scope for scopes other than ``"function"``.
+
+
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#5113 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5113>`_: Deselected items from plugins using ``pytest_collect_modifyitems`` as a hookwrapper are correctly reported now.
+
+
+- `#5144 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5144>`_: With usage errors ``exitstatus`` is set to ``EXIT_USAGEERROR`` in the ``pytest_sessionfinish`` hook now as expected.
+
+
+- `#5235 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5235>`_: ``outcome.exit`` is not used with ``EOF`` in the pdb wrapper anymore, but only with ``quit``.
+
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- `#4935 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4935>`_: Expand docs on registering marks and the effect of ``--strict``.
+
+
+
+Trivial/Internal Changes
+------------------------
+
+- `#4942 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4942>`_: ``logging.raiseExceptions`` is not set to ``False`` anymore.
+
+
+- `#5013 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5013>`_: pytest now depends on `wcwidth <https://pypi.org/project/wcwidth>`__ to properly track unicode character sizes for more precise terminal output.
+
+
+- `#5059 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5059>`_: pytester's ``Testdir.popen()`` uses ``stdout`` and ``stderr`` via keyword arguments with defaults now (``subprocess.PIPE``).
+
+
+- `#5069 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5069>`_: The code for the short test summary in the terminal was moved to the terminal plugin.
+
+
+- `#5082 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5082>`_: Improved validation of kwargs for various methods in the pytester plugin.
+
+
+- `#5202 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5202>`_: ``record_property`` now emits a ``PytestWarning`` when used with ``junit_family=xunit2``: the fixture generates
+  ``property`` tags as children of ``testcase``, which is not permitted according to the most
+  `recent schema <https://github.com/jenkinsci/xunit-plugin/blob/master/
+  src/main/resources/org/jenkinsci/plugins/xunit/types/model/xsd/junit-10.xsd>`__.
+
+
+- `#5239 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/5239>`_: Pin ``pluggy`` to ``< 1.0`` so we don't update to ``1.0`` automatically when
+  it gets released: there are planned breaking changes, and we want to ensure
+  pytest properly supports ``pluggy 1.0``.
