GitHub issues should use labels to categorize them. Labels should be created sporadically, to fill a niche; we should
avoid creating labels just for the sake of creating them.
Here is a list of labels and a brief description mentioning their intent.
Each label should include a description in the GitHub's interface stating its purpose.
Temporary labels
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
**Type**
To classify issues for a special event it is encouraged to create a temporary label. This helps those involved to find
the relevant issues to work on. Examples of that are sprints in Python events or global hacking events.
* ``type: backward compatibility``: issue that will cause problems with old pytest versions.
* ``type: bug``: problem that needs to be addressed.
* ``type: deprecation``: feature that will be deprecated in the future.
* ``type: docs``: documentation missing or needing clarification.
* ``type: enhancement``: new feature or API change, should be merged into ``features``.
* ``type: feature-branch``: new feature or API change, should be merged into ``features``.
* ``type: infrastructure``: improvement to development/releases/CI structure.
* ``type: performance``: performance or memory problem/improvement.
* ``type: proposal``: proposal for a new feature, often to gather opinions or design the API around the new feature.
* ``type: question``: question regarding usage, installation, internals or how to test something.
* ``type: refactoring``: internal improvements to the code.
* ``type: regression``: indicates a problem that was introduced in a release which was working previously.
* ``temporary: EP2017 sprint``: candidate issues or PRs tackled during the EuroPython 2017
**Status**
Issues created at those events should have other relevant labels added as well.
* ``status: critical``: grave problem or usability issue that affects lots of users.
* ``status: easy``: easy issue that is friendly to new contributors.
* ``status: help wanted``: core developers need help from experts on this topic.
* ``status: needs information``: reporter needs to provide more information; can be closed after 2 or more weeks of inactivity.
**Topic**
* ``topic: collection``
* ``topic: fixtures``
* ``topic: parametrize``
* ``topic: reporting``
* ``topic: selection``
* ``topic: tracebacks``
**Plugin (internal or external)**
* ``plugin: cache``
* ``plugin: capture``
* ``plugin: doctests``
* ``plugin: junitxml``
* ``plugin: monkeypatch``
* ``plugin: nose``
* ``plugin: pastebin``
* ``plugin: pytester``
* ``plugin: tmpdir``
* ``plugin: unittest``
* ``plugin: warnings``
* ``plugin: xdist``
**OS**
Issues specific to a single operating system. Do not use as a means to indicate where an issue originated from, only
for problems that happen **only** in that system.
* ``os: linux``
* ``os: mac``
* ``os: windows``
**Temporary**
Used to classify issues for limited time, to help find issues related in events for example.
They should be removed after they are no longer relevant.
* ``temporary: EP2017 sprint``:
* ``temporary: sprint-candidate``:
Those labels should be removed after they are no longer relevant.
