For detailed +changes see below. pytest is a mature testing tool for Python, +supporting CPython 2.4-3.2, Jython and latest PyPy interpreters. See +docs here implementation. See docs with examples here: + + http://pytest.org/ + +A note on packaging: pytest used to part of the "py" distribution up +until version py-1.3.4 but this has changed now: pytest-2.0.X only +contains py.test related code and is expected to be backward-compatible +to existing test code. If you want to install pytest, just type one of:: + + pip install -U pytest + easy_install -U pytest + +Many thanks to all issue reporters and people asking questions or +complaining.

This only is true + for "direct" setup/teardown invocations because teardown_class/ + teardown_module cannot closely relate to a single test. +- fix issue14: no logging errors at process exit +- refinements to "collecting" output on non-ttys +- refine internal plugin registration and --traceconfig output +- introduce a mechanism to prevent/unregister plugins from the + command line, see http://pytest.org/plugins.html#cmdunregister +- activate resultlog plugin by default +- fix regression wrt yielded tests which due to the + collection-before-running semantics were not + setup as with pytest 1.3.4. Note, however, that + the recommended and much cleaner way to do test + parametraization remains the "pytest_generate_tests" + mechanism, see the docs.
