@ -255,8 +255,8 @@ Pytest supports the use of ``breakpoint()`` with the following behaviours:
- When ``breakpoint()`` is called and ``PYTHONBREAKPOINT`` is set to the default value, pytest will use the custom internal PDB trace UI instead of the system default ``Pdb``.
- When tests are complete, the system will default back to the system ``Pdb`` trace UI.
- If ``--pdb`` is called on execution of pytest, the custom internal Pdb trace UI is used on both ``breakpoint()`` and failed tests/unhandled exceptions.
- If ``--pdbcls`` is used, the custom class debugger will be executed when a test fails (as expected within existing behaviour), but also when ``breakpoint()`` is called from within a test, the custom class debugger will be instantiated.
- With ``--pdb`` passed to pytest, the custom internal Pdb trace UI is used with both ``breakpoint()`` and failed tests/unhandled exceptions.
- ``--pdbcls`` can be used to specify a custom debugger class.
