Note: this assumes you have already registered on pypi.
0. create the branch release-VERSION
use features as base for minor/major releases
and master as base for bugfix releases
1. Bump version numbers in ``_pytest/__init__.py`` (``setup.py`` reads it).
1. Bump version numbers in _pytest/__init__.py (setup.py reads it)
2. Check and finalize ``CHANGELOG.rst``.
2. Check and finalize CHANGELOG
3. Write ``doc/en/announce/release-VERSION.txt`` and include
it in ``doc/en/announce/index.txt``. Run this command to list names of authors involved::
3. Write doc/en/announce/release-VERSION.txt and include
it in doc/en/announce/index.txt::
git log $(git describe --abbrev=0 --tags)..HEAD --format='%aN' | sort -u
git log 2.8.2..HEAD --format='%aN' | sort -u # lists the names of authors involved
4. Regenerate the docs examples using tox::
4. Use devpi for uploading a release tarball to a staging area::
tox -e regen
5. At this point, open a PR named ``release-X`` so others can help find regressions or provide suggestions.
6. Use devpi for uploading a release tarball to a staging area::
devpi use https://devpi.net/USER/dev
devpi upload --formats sdist,bdist_wheel
5. Run from multiple machines::
7. Run from multiple machines::
devpi use https://devpi.net/USER/dev
devpi test pytest==VERSION
6. Check that tests pass for relevant combinations with::
Alternatively, you can use `devpi-cloud-tester <https://github.com/nicoddemus/devpi-cloud-tester>`_ to test
the package on AppVeyor and Travis (follow instructions on the ``README``).
8. Check that tests pass for relevant combinations with::
devpi list pytest
or look at failures with "devpi list -f pytest".
7. Regenerate the docs examples using tox, and check for regressions::
tox -e regen
git diff
8. Build the docs, you need a virtualenv with py and sphinx
installed::
cd doc/en
make html
Commit any changes before tagging the release.
9. Tag the release::
git tag VERSION
git push
10. Upload the docs using doc/en/Makefile::
cd doc/en
make install # or "installall" if you have LaTeX installed for PDF
This requires ssh-login permission on pytest.org because it uses
rsync.
Note that the ``install`` target of ``doc/en/Makefile`` defines where the
rsync goes to, typically to the "latest" section of pytest.org.
If you are making a minor release (e.g. 5.4), you also need to manually
create a symlink for "latest"::
ssh pytest-dev@pytest.org
ln -s 5.4 latest
Browse to pytest.org to verify.
11. Publish to pypi::
9. Feeling confident? Publish to pypi::
devpi push pytest==VERSION pypi:NAME
where NAME is the name of pypi.python.org as configured in your ``~/.pypirc``
file `for devpi <http://doc.devpi.net/latest/quickstart-releaseprocess.html?highlight=pypirc#devpi-push-releasing-to-an-external-index>`_.
where NAME is the name of pypi.python.org as configured in your ``~/.pypirc``
file `for devpi <http://doc.devpi.net/latest/quickstart-releaseprocess.html?highlight=pypirc#devpi-push-releasing-to-an-external-index>`_.
10. Tag the release::
12. Send release announcement to mailing lists:
git tag VERSION <hash>
git push origin VERSION
- pytest-dev
- testing-in-python
Make sure ``<hash>`` is **exactly** the git hash at the time the package was created.
11. Send release announcement to mailing lists:
- pytest-dev@python.org
- testing-in-python@lists.idyll.org
- python-announce-list@python.org
And announce the release on Twitter, making sure to add the hashtag ``#pytest``.
12. **After the release**
a. **patch release (2.8.3)**:
1. Checkout ``master``.
2. Update version number in ``_pytest/__init__.py`` to ``"2.8.4.dev"``.
3. Create a new section in ``CHANGELOG.rst`` titled ``2.8.4.dev`` and add a few bullet points as placeholders for new entries.
4. Commit and push.
b. **minor release (2.9.0)**:
1. Merge ``features`` into ``master``.
2. Checkout ``master``.
3. Follow the same steps for a **patch release** above, using the next patch release: ``2.9.1.dev``.
4. Commit ``master``.
5. Checkout ``features`` and merge with ``master`` (should be a fast-forward at this point).
6. Update version number in ``_pytest/__init__.py`` to the next minor release: ``"2.10.0.dev"``.
7. Create a new section in ``CHANGELOG.rst`` titled ``2.10.0.dev``, above ``2.9.1.dev``, and add a few bullet points as placeholders for new entries.
8. Commit ``features``.
9. Push ``master`` and ``features``.
c. **major release (3.0.0)**: same steps as that of a **minor release**
13. **after the release** Bump the version number in ``_pytest/__init__.py``,
to the next Minor release version (i.e. if you released ``pytest-2.8.0``,
set it to ``pytest-2.9.0.dev1``).
14. merge the actual release into the master branch and do a pull request against it
15. merge from master to features
