Changelog

8.3.3

=========================

Bug fixes
---------

- `12659 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12659>`_: Fixed the issue of not displaying assertion failure differences when using the parameter ``--import-mode=importlib`` in pytest>=8.1.


- `12667 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12667>`_: Fixed a regression where type change in `ExceptionInfo.errisinstance` caused `mypy` to fail.


- `12744 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12744>`_: Fixed typing compatibility with Python 3.9 or less -- replaced `typing.Self` with `typing_extensions.Self` -- by :user:`Avasam`


- `12745 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12745>`_: Fixed an issue with backslashes being incorrectly converted in nodeid paths on Windows, ensuring consistent path handling across environments.


- `6682 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6682>`_: Fixed bug where the verbosity levels where not being respected when printing the "msg" part of failed assertion (as in ``assert condition, msg``).


- `9422 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9422>`_: Fix bug where disabling the terminal plugin via ``-p no:terminal`` would cause crashes related to missing the ``verbose`` option.

-- by :user:`GTowers1`



Improved documentation
----------------------

- `12663 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12663>`_: Clarify that the `pytest_deselected` hook should be called from `pytest_collection_modifyitems` hook implementations when items are deselected.


- `12678 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12678>`_: Remove erroneous quotes from `tmp_path_retention_policy` example in docs.



Miscellaneous internal changes
------------------------------

- `12769 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12769>`_: Fix typos discovered by codespell and add codespell to pre-commit hooks.

8.3.2

=========================

Bug fixes
---------

- `12652 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12652>`_: Resolve regression `conda` environments where no longer being automatically detected.

-- by :user:`RonnyPfannschmidt`

8.3.1

=========================

The 8.3.0 release failed to include the change notes and docs for the release. This patch release remedies this. There are no other changes.

8.3.0

=========================

New features
------------

- `12231 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12231>`_: Added `--xfail-tb` flag, which turns on traceback output for XFAIL results.

* If the `--xfail-tb` flag is not given, tracebacks for XFAIL results are NOT shown.
* The style of traceback for XFAIL is set with `--tb`, and can be `auto|long|short|line|native|no`.
* Note: Even if you have `--xfail-tb` set, you won't see them if `--tb=no`.

Some history:

With pytest 8.0, `-rx` or `-ra` would not only turn on summary reports for xfail, but also report the tracebacks for xfail results. This caused issues with some projects that utilize xfail, but don't want to see all of the xfail tracebacks.

This change detaches xfail tracebacks from `-rx`, and now we turn on xfail tracebacks with `--xfail-tb`. With this, the default `-rx`/ `-ra` behavior is identical to pre-8.0 with respect to xfail tracebacks. While this is a behavior change, it brings default behavior back to pre-8.0.0 behavior, which ultimately was considered the better course of action.

-- by :user:`okken`


- `12281 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12281>`_: Added support for keyword matching in marker expressions.

Now tests can be selected by marker keyword arguments.
Supported values are :class:`int`, (unescaped) :class:`str`, :class:`bool` & :data:`None`.

See :ref:`marker examples <marker_keyword_expression_example>` for more information.

-- by :user:`lovetheguitar`


- `12567 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12567>`_: Added ``--no-fold-skipped`` command line option.

If this option is set, then skipped tests in short summary are no longer grouped
by reason but all tests are printed individually with their nodeid in the same
way as other statuses.

-- by :user:`pbrezina`



Improvements in existing functionality
--------------------------------------

- `12469 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12469>`_: The console output now uses the "third-party plugins" terminology,
replacing the previously established but confusing and outdated
reference to :std:doc:`setuptools <setuptools:index>`
-- by :user:`webknjaz`.


- `12544 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12544>`_, `#12545 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12545>`_: Python virtual environment detection was improved by
checking for a :file:`pyvenv.cfg` file, ensuring reliable detection on
various platforms -- by :user:`zachsnickers`.


- `2871 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2871>`_: Do not truncate arguments to functions in output when running with `-vvv`.


- `389 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/389>`_: The readability of assertion introspection of bound methods has been enhanced
-- by :user:`farbodahm`, :user:`webknjaz`, :user:`obestwalter`, :user:`flub`
and :user:`glyphack`.

Earlier, it was like:

.. code-block:: console

   =================================== FAILURES ===================================
   _____________________________________ test _____________________________________

       def test():
   >       assert Help().fun() == 2
   E       assert 1 == 2
   E        +  where 1 = <bound method Help.fun of <example.Help instance at 0x256a830>>()
   E        +    where <bound method Help.fun of <example.Help instance at 0x256a830>> = <example.Help instance at 0x256a830>.fun
   E        +      where <example.Help instance at 0x256a830> = Help()

   example.py:7: AssertionError
   =========================== 1 failed in 0.03 seconds ===========================


And now it's like:

.. code-block:: console

   =================================== FAILURES ===================================
   _____________________________________ test _____________________________________

       def test():
   >       assert Help().fun() == 2
   E       assert 1 == 2
   E        +  where 1 = fun()
   E        +    where fun = <test_local.Help object at 0x1074be230>.fun
   E        +      where <test_local.Help object at 0x1074be230> = Help()

   test_local.py:13: AssertionError
   =========================== 1 failed in 0.03 seconds ===========================


- `7662 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7662>`_: Added timezone information to the testsuite timestamp in the JUnit XML report.



Bug fixes
---------

- `11706 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11706>`_: Fixed reporting of teardown errors in higher-scoped fixtures when using `--maxfail` or `--stepwise`.

Originally added in pytest 8.0.0, but reverted in 8.0.2 due to a regression in pytest-xdist.
This regression was fixed in pytest-xdist 3.6.1.


- `11797 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11797>`_: :func:`pytest.approx` now correctly handles :class:`Sequence <collections.abc.Sequence>`-like objects.


- `12204 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12204>`_, `#12264 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12264>`_: Fixed a regression in pytest 8.0 where tracebacks get longer and longer when multiple
tests fail due to a shared higher-scope fixture which raised -- by :user:`bluetech`.

Also fixed a similar regression in pytest 5.4 for collectors which raise during setup.

The fix necessitated internal changes which may affect some plugins:

* ``FixtureDef.cached_result[2]`` is now a tuple ``(exc, tb)``
 instead of ``exc``.
* ``SetupState.stack`` failures are now a tuple ``(exc, tb)``
 instead of ``exc``.


- `12275 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12275>`_: Fixed collection error upon encountering an :mod:`abstract <abc>` class, including abstract `unittest.TestCase` subclasses.


- `12328 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12328>`_: Fixed a regression in pytest 8.0.0 where package-scoped parameterized items were not correctly reordered to minimize setups/teardowns in some cases.


- `12424 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12424>`_: Fixed crash with `assert testcase is not None` assertion failure when re-running unittest tests using plugins like pytest-rerunfailures. Regressed in 8.2.2.


- `12472 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12472>`_: Fixed a crash when returning category ``"error"`` or ``"failed"`` with a custom test status from :hook:`pytest_report_teststatus` hook -- :user:`pbrezina`.


- `12505 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12505>`_: Improved handling of invalid regex patterns in :func:`pytest.raises(match=r'...') <pytest.raises>` by providing a clear error message.


- `12580 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12580>`_: Fixed a crash when using the cache class on Windows and the cache directory was created concurrently.


- `6962 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/6962>`_: Parametrization parameters are now compared using `==` instead of `is` (`is` is still used as a fallback if the parameter does not support `==`).
This fixes use of parameters such as lists, which have a different `id` but compare equal, causing fixtures to be re-computed instead of being cached.


- `7166 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/7166>`_: Fixed progress percentages (the ``[ 87%]`` at the edge of the screen) sometimes not aligning correctly when running with pytest-xdist ``-n``.



Improved documentation
----------------------

- `12153 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12153>`_: Documented using :envvar:`PYTEST_VERSION` to detect if code is running from within a pytest run.


- `12469 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12469>`_: The external plugin mentions in the documentation now avoid mentioning
:std:doc:`setuptools entry-points <setuptools:index>` as the concept is
much more generic nowadays. Instead, the terminology of "external",
"installed", or "third-party" plugins (or packages) replaces that.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12577 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12577>`_: `CI` and `BUILD_NUMBER` environment variables role is described in
the reference doc. They now also appear when doing `pytest -h`
-- by :user:`MarcBresson`.



Contributor-facing changes
--------------------------

- `12467 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12467>`_: Migrated all internal type-annotations to the python3.10+ style by using the `annotations` future import.

-- by :user:`RonnyPfannschmidt`


- `11771 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11771>`_, `#12557 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12557>`_: The PyPy runtime version has been updated to 3.9 from 3.8 that introduced
a flaky bug at the garbage collector which was not expected to fix there
as the 3.8 is EoL.

-- by :user:`x612skm`


- `12493 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12493>`_: The change log draft preview integration has been refactored to use a
third party extension ``sphinxcontib-towncrier``. The previous in-repo
script was putting the change log preview file at
:file:`doc/en/_changelog_towncrier_draft.rst`. Said file is no longer
ignored in Git and might show up among untracked files in the
development environments of the contributors. To address that, the
contributors can run the following command that will clean it up:

.. code-block:: console

  $ git clean -x -i -- doc/en/_changelog_towncrier_draft.rst

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12498 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12498>`_: All the undocumented ``tox`` environments now have descriptions.
They can be listed in one's development environment by invoking
``tox -av`` in a terminal.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12501 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12501>`_: The changelog configuration has been updated to introduce more accurate
audience-tailored categories. Previously, there was a ``trivial``
change log fragment type with an unclear and broad meaning. It was
removed and we now have ``contrib``, ``misc`` and ``packaging`` in
place of it.

The new change note types target the readers who are downstream
packagers and project contributors. Additionally, the miscellaneous
section is kept for unspecified updates that do not fit anywhere else.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12502 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12502>`_: The UX of the GitHub automation making pull requests to update the
plugin list has been updated. Previously, the maintainers had to close
the automatically created pull requests and re-open them to trigger the
CI runs. From now on, they only need to click the `Ready for review`
button instead.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12522 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12522>`_: The ``:pull:`` RST role has been replaced with a shorter
``:pr:`` due to starting to use the implementation from
the third-party :pypi:`sphinx-issues` Sphinx extension
-- by :user:`webknjaz`.


- `12531 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12531>`_: The coverage reporting configuration has been updated to exclude
pytest's own tests marked as expected to fail from the coverage
report. This has an effect of reducing the influence of flaky
tests on the resulting number.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12533 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12533>`_: The ``extlinks`` Sphinx extension is no longer enabled. The ``:bpo:``
role it used to declare has been removed with that. BPO itself has
migrated to GitHub some years ago and it is possible to link the
respective issues by using their GitHub issue numbers and the
``:issue:`` role that the ``sphinx-issues`` extension implements.

-- by :user:`webknjaz`


- `12562 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12562>`_: Possible typos in using the ``:user:`` RST role is now being linted
through the pre-commit tool integration -- by :user:`webknjaz`.

8.2.2

=========================

Bug Fixes
---------

- `12355 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12355>`_: Fix possible catastrophic performance slowdown on a certain parametrization pattern involving many higher-scoped parameters.


- `12367 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12367>`_: Fix a regression in pytest 8.2.0 where unittest class instances (a fresh one is created for each test) were not released promptly on test teardown but only on session teardown.


- `12381 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12381>`_: Fix possible "Directory not empty" crashes arising from concurrent cache dir (``.pytest_cache``) creation. Regressed in pytest 8.2.0.



Improved Documentation
----------------------

- `12290 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12290>`_: Updated Sphinx theme to use Furo instead of Flask, enabling Dark mode theme.


- `12356 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12356>`_: Added a subsection to the documentation for debugging flaky tests to mention
lack of thread safety in pytest as a possible source of flakiness.


- `12363 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12363>`_: The documentation webpages now links to a canonical version to reduce outdated documentation in search engine results.

8.2.1

=========================

Improvements
------------

- `12334 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12334>`_: Support for Python 3.13 (beta1 at the time of writing).



Bug Fixes
---------

- `12120 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12120>`_: Fix `PermissionError` crashes arising from directories which are not selected on the command-line.


- `12191 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12191>`_: Keyboard interrupts and system exits are now properly handled during the test collection.


- `12300 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12300>`_: Fixed handling of 'Function not implemented' error under squashfuse_ll, which is a different way to say that the mountpoint is read-only.


- `12308 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12308>`_: Fix a regression in pytest 8.2.0 where the permissions of automatically-created ``.pytest_cache`` directories became ``rwx------`` instead of the expected ``rwxr-xr-x``.



Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------

- `12333 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12333>`_: pytest releases are now attested using the recent `Artifact Attestation <https://github.blog/2024-05-02-introducing-artifact-attestations-now-in-public-beta/>`_ support from GitHub, allowing users to verify the provenance of pytest's sdist and wheel artifacts.

8.2.0

=========================

Breaking Changes
----------------

- `12089 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/pull/12089>`_: pytest now requires that :class:`unittest.TestCase` subclasses can be instantiated freely using ``MyTestCase('runTest')``.

If the class doesn't allow this, you may see an error during collection such as ``AttributeError: 'MyTestCase' object has no attribute 'runTest'``.

Classes which do not override ``__init__``, or do not access the test method in ``__init__`` using ``getattr`` or similar, are unaffected.

Classes which do should take care to not crash when ``"runTest"`` is given, as is shown in `unittest.TestCases's implementation <https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/51aefc5bf907ddffaaf083ded0de773adcdf08c8/Lib/unittest/case.py#L419-L426>`_.
Alternatively, consider using :meth:`setUp <unittest.TestCase.setUp>` instead of ``__init__``.

If you run into this issue using ``tornado.AsyncTestCase``, please see `issue 12263 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12263>`_.

If you run into this issue using an abstract ``TestCase`` subclass, please see `issue 12275 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12275>`_.

Historical note: the effect of this change on custom TestCase implementations was not properly considered initially, this is why it was done in a minor release. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Deprecations
------------

- `12069 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12069>`_: A deprecation warning is now raised when implementations of one of the following hooks request a deprecated ``py.path.local`` parameter instead of the ``pathlib.Path`` parameter which replaced it:

- :hook:`pytest_ignore_collect` - the ``path`` parameter - use ``collection_path`` instead.
- :hook:`pytest_collect_file` - the ``path`` parameter - use ``file_path`` instead.
- :hook:`pytest_pycollect_makemodule` - the ``path`` parameter - use ``module_path`` instead.
- :hook:`pytest_report_header` - the ``startdir`` parameter - use ``start_path`` instead.
- :hook:`pytest_report_collectionfinish` - the ``startdir`` parameter - use ``start_path`` instead.

The replacement parameters are available since pytest 7.0.0.
The old parameters will be removed in pytest 9.0.0.

See :ref:`legacy-path-hooks-deprecated` for more details.



Features
--------

- `11871 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11871>`_: Added support for reading command line arguments from a file using the prefix character `, like e.g.: ``pytest tests.txt``. The file must have one argument per line.

See :ref:`Read arguments from file <args-from-file>` for details.



Improvements
------------

- `11523 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11523>`_: :func:`pytest.importorskip` will now issue a warning if the module could be found, but raised :class:`ImportError` instead of :class:`ModuleNotFoundError`.

The warning can be suppressed by passing ``exc_type=ImportError`` to :func:`pytest.importorskip`.

See :ref:`import-or-skip-import-error` for details.


- `11728 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11728>`_: For ``unittest``-based tests, exceptions during class cleanup (as raised by functions registered with :meth:`TestCase.addClassCleanup <unittest.TestCase.addClassCleanup>`) are now reported instead of silently failing.


- `11777 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11777>`_: Text is no longer truncated in the ``short test summary info`` section when ``-vv`` is given.


- `12112 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12112>`_: Improved namespace packages detection when :confval:`consider_namespace_packages` is enabled, covering more situations (like editable installs).


- `9502 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9502>`_: Added :envvar:`PYTEST_VERSION` environment variable which is defined at the start of the pytest session and undefined afterwards. It contains the value of ``pytest.__version__``, and among other things can be used to easily check if code is running from within a pytest run.



Bug Fixes
---------

- `12065 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12065>`_: Fixed a regression in pytest 8.0.0 where test classes containing ``setup_method`` and tests using ``staticmethod`` or ``classmethod`` would crash with ``AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'setup_method'``.

Now the :attr:`request.instance <pytest.FixtureRequest.instance>` attribute of tests using ``staticmethod`` and ``classmethod`` is no longer ``None``, but a fresh instance of the class, like in non-static methods.
Previously it was ``None``, and all fixtures of such tests would share a single ``self``.


- `12135 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12135>`_: Fixed issue where fixtures adding their finalizer multiple times to fixtures they request would cause unreliable and non-intuitive teardown ordering in some instances.


- `12194 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12194>`_: Fixed a bug with ``--importmode=importlib`` and ``--doctest-modules`` where child modules did not appear as attributes in parent modules.


- `1489 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1489>`_: Fixed some instances where teardown of higher-scoped fixtures was not happening in the reverse order they were initialized in.



Trivial/Internal Changes
------------------------

- `12069 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12069>`_: ``pluggy>=1.5.0`` is now required.


- `12167 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12167>`_: :ref:`cache <cache>`: create supporting files (``CACHEDIR.TAG``, ``.gitignore``, etc.) in a temporary directory to provide atomic semantics.

8.1.2

=========================

Bug Fixes
---------

- `12114 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12114>`_: Fixed error in :func:`pytest.approx` when used with `numpy` arrays and comparing with other types.
