Deprecations
------------
- `#6981 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6981>`_: Deprecate the ``pytest.collect`` module as it's just aliases into ``pytest``.
- `#7097 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7097>`_: The ``pytest._fillfuncargs`` function is now deprecated. This function was kept
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.
- `#7210 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7210>`_: The special ``-k '-expr'`` syntax to ``-k`` is deprecated. Use ``-k 'not expr'``
instead.

This hook is meant to replace `pytest_warning_captured`, which will be removed in a future release.
- `#6285 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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.
- `#6433 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6433>`_: If an error is encountered while formatting the message in a logging call, for
example ``logging.warning("oh no!: %s: %s", "first")`` (a second argument is
missing), pytest now propagates the error, likely causing the test to fail.
Previously, such a mistake would cause an error to be printed to stderr, which
is not displayed by default for passing tests. This change makes the mistake
visible during testing.
You may supress this behavior temporarily or permanently by setting
``logging.raiseExceptions = False``.
