py.test 2.1.0: perfected assertions and bug fixes
|
|
===========================================================================
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the release of pytest-2.1, a mature testing tool for Python,
|
|
supporting CPython 2.4-3.2, Jython and latest PyPy interpreters. See
|
|
the improved extensive docs (now also as PDF!) with tested examples here:
|
|
|
|
http://pytest.org/
|
|
|
|
The single biggest news about this release are **perfected assertions**
|
|
courtesy of Benjamin Peterson. You can now safely use ``assert``
|
|
statements in test modules without having to worry about side effects
|
|
or python optimization ("-OO") options. This is achieved by rewriting
|
|
assert statements in test modules upon import, using a PEP302 hook.
|
|
See https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/how-to/assert.html for
|
|
detailed information. The work has been partly sponsored by my company,
|
|
merlinux GmbH.
|
|
|
|
For further details on bug fixes and smaller enhancements see below.
|
|
|
|
If you want to install or upgrade pytest, just type one of::
|
|
|
|
pip install -U pytest # or
|
|
easy_install -U pytest
|
|
|
|
