py.test 2.0.2: bug fixes, improved xfail/skip expressions, speed ups
|
|
===========================================================================
|
|
|
|
Welcome to pytest-2.0.2, a maintenance and bug fix release of pytest,
|
|
a mature testing tool for Python, supporting CPython 2.4-3.2, Jython
|
|
and latest PyPy interpreters. See the extensive docs with tested examples here:
|
|
|
|
http://pytest.org/
|
|
|
|
If you want to install or upgrade pytest, just type one of::
|
|
|
|
pip install -U pytest # or
|
|
easy_install -U pytest
|
|
|
|
Many thanks to all issue reporters and people asking questions
|
|
or complaining, particularly Jurko for his insistence,
|
|
Laura, Victor and Brianna for helping with improving
|
|
and Ronny for his general advise.
|
|
|
|
best,

Changes between 2.0.1 and 2.0.2
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- tackle issue32 - speed up test runs of very quick test functions
|
|
by reducing the relative overhead
|
|
|
|
- fix issue30 - extended xfail/skipif handling and improved reporting.
|
|
If you have a syntax error in your skip/xfail
|
|
expressions you now get nice error reports.
|
|
|
|
Also you can now access module globals from xfail/skipif
|
|
expressions so that this for example works now::
|
|
|
|
import pytest
|
|
import mymodule
|
|
@pytest.mark.skipif("mymodule.__version__[0] == "1")
|
|
def test_function():
|
|
pass
|
|
|
|
This will not run the test function if the module's version string
|
|
does not start with a "1". Note that specifying a string instead
|
|
of a boolean expressions allows py.test to report meaningful information
|
|
when summarizing a test run as to what conditions lead to skipping
|
|
(or xfail-ing) tests.
|
|
|
|
- fix issue28 - setup_method and pytest_generate_tests work together
|
|
The setup_method fixture method now gets called also for
|
|
test function invocations generated from the pytest_generate_tests
|
|
hook.
|
|
|
|
- fix issue27 - collectonly and keyword-selection (-k) now work together
|
|
Also, if you do "py.test --collectonly -q" you now get a flat list
|
|
of test ids that you can use to paste to the py.test commandline
|
|
in order to execute a particular test.
|
|
|
|
- fix issue25 avoid reported problems with --pdb and python3.2/encodings output
|
|
|
|
- fix issue23 - tmpdir argument now works on Python3.2 and WindowsXP
|
|
Starting with Python3.2 os.symlink may be supported. By requiring
|
|
a newer py lib version the py.path.local() implementation acknowledges
|
|
this.
|
|
|
|
- fixed typos in the docs (thanks Victor Garcia, Brianna Laugher) and particular
|
|
thanks to Laura Creighton who also revieved parts of the documentation.
|
|
|
|
- fix slighly wrong output of verbose progress reporting for classes
|
|
(thanks Amaury)
|
|
|
|
- more precise (avoiding of) deprecation warnings for node.Class|Function accesses
|
|
|
|
- avoid std unittest assertion helper code in tracebacks (thanks Ronny)
