This allows for e.g. Jedi to infer types (it checks the name).
It was only used to support Python 3.5.0/3.5.1, where this is is not
available in the `typing` module.
Ref: https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi/issues/1472
Uses `TYPE_CHECKING = False` in `_pytest.outcomes` to avoid having to
work around circular import.
Both references were referencing links from Python because of our intersphinx
mapping in `conf.py`:
intersphinx_mapping = {"python": ("https://docs.python.org/3", None)}
Because Python's docs explicitly define both references, Sphinx fallbacks to
them instead of generating implicit references as was expected.
Fix#6397
I've updated the text and incorporated the topics from #5275, so this
can now be part of the official docs, and #5275 can be closed/unpinned.
Closes#5275
* Rearrange section about context manager to be in order
* Link to `pytest.warns` and `recwarn` since a reader going top to bottom won't have seen about those yet.
* Used only context manager form in the example; the call form is somewhat obsolete
and is mentioned in the reference docs already.
* Reuse the 'myfunction' from first example on the second one

Now `tox -e docs` will also include the draft changelog for the
next version (locally only).
`CHANGELOG.rst` now only points to the changelog on READTHEDOCS so
sphinx diretives can be used.
Followup to https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/pull/6272
This configures the default role for interpreted text (single
backticks), avoiding the need to check for / enforce double backticks.
Fixes also one instance in the existing changelog:
- Detect `pytest_` prefixed hooks using the internal plugin manager since
``pluggy`` is deprecating the ``implprefix`` argument to ``PluginManager``.

Instead of giving an example of using sys and then, at the end,
advising not to use sys, just give a correct example. This is
especially helpful since mypy 0.740 has started (correctly) complaining
about sys._called_from_pytest not being present.
