pytest 8.3.0 (2024-07-20)

New features

#12231: Added [--xfail-tb]{.title-ref} flag, which turns on traceback output for XFAIL results.
- If the [--xfail-tb]{.title-ref} flag is not given, tracebacks for XFAIL results are NOT shown.
- The style of traceback for XFAIL is set with [--tb]{.title-ref}, and can be [auto|long|short|line|native|no]{.title-ref}.
- Note: Even if you have [--xfail-tb]{.title-ref} set, you won't see them if [--tb=no]{.title-ref}.
Some history:

With pytest 8.0, [-rx]{.title-ref} or [-ra]{.title-ref} 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]{.title-ref}, and now we turn on xfail tracebacks with [--xfail-tb]{.title-ref}. With this, the default [-rx]{.title-ref}/ [-ra]{.title-ref} 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.
#12281: Added support for keyword matching in marker expressions.

Now tests can be selected by marker keyword arguments.
Supported values are int{.interpreted-text role="class"}, (unescaped) str{.interpreted-text role="class"}, bool{.interpreted-text role="class"} & None{.interpreted-text role="data"}.

See marker examples <marker_keyword_expression_example>{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more information.

-- by lovetheguitar{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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 pbrezina{.interpreted-text role="user"}

Improvements in existing functionality

#12469: The console output now uses the "third-party plugins" terminology,
replacing the previously established but confusing and outdated
reference to setuptools <setuptools:index>{.interpreted-text role="std:doc"}
-- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}.
#12544, #12545: Python virtual environment detection was improved by
checking for a pyvenv.cfg{.interpreted-text role="file"} file, ensuring reliable detection on
various platforms -- by zachsnickers{.interpreted-text role="user"}.
#2871: Do not truncate arguments to functions in output when running with [-vvv]{.title-ref}.

#389: The readability of assertion introspection of bound methods has been enhanced
-- by farbodahm{.interpreted-text role="user"}, webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}, obestwalter{.interpreted-text role="user"}, flub{.interpreted-text role="user"}
and glyphack{.interpreted-text role="user"}.

Earlier, it was like:

=================================== 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:

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

    def test():
>       assert Help().fun() == 2
E       assert 1 == 2
E        +  where 1 = fun()

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

#7662: Added timezone information to the testsuite timestamp in the JUnit XML report.

Bug fixes

#11706: Fixed reporting of teardown errors in higher-scoped fixtures when using [--maxfail]{.title-ref} or [--stepwise]{.title-ref}.

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: pytest.approx{.interpreted-text role="func"} now correctly handles Sequence <collections.abc.Sequence>{.interpreted-text role="class"}-like objects.
#12204, #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 bluetech{.interpreted-text role="user"}.

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: Fixed collection error upon encountering an abstract <abc>{.interpreted-text role="mod"} class, including abstract [unittest.TestCase]{.title-ref} subclasses.
#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: Fixed crash with [assert testcase is not None]{.title-ref} assertion failure when re-running unittest tests using plugins like pytest-rerunfailures. Regressed in 8.2.2.
#12472: Fixed a crash when returning category "error" or "failed" with a custom test status from pytest_report_teststatus{.interpreted-text role="hook"} hook -- pbrezina{.interpreted-text role="user"}.
#12505: Improved handling of invalid regex patterns in pytest.raises(match=r'...') <pytest.raises>{.interpreted-text role="func"} by providing a clear error message.
#12580: Fixed a crash when using the cache class on Windows and the cache directory was created concurrently.
#6962: Parametrization parameters are now compared using [==]{.title-ref} instead of [is]{.title-ref} ([is]{.title-ref} is still used as a fallback if the parameter does not support [==]{.title-ref}).
This fixes use of parameters such as lists, which have a different [id]{.title-ref} but compare equal, causing fixtures to be re-computed instead of being cached.
#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: Documented using PYTEST_VERSION{.interpreted-text role="envvar"} to detect if code is running from within a pytest run.
#12469: The external plugin mentions in the documentation now avoid mentioning
setuptools entry-points <setuptools:index>{.interpreted-text role="std:doc"} as the concept is
much more generic nowadays. Instead, the terminology of "external",
"installed", or "third-party" plugins (or packages) replaces that.

-- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#12577: [CI]{.title-ref} and [BUILD_NUMBER]{.title-ref} environment variables role is discribed in
the reference doc. They now also appear when doing [pytest -h]{.title-ref}
-- by MarcBresson{.interpreted-text role="user"}.

Contributor-facing changes

#12467: Migrated all internal type-annotations to the python3.10+ style by using the [annotations]{.title-ref} future import.

-- by RonnyPfannschmidt{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#11771, #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 x612skm{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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
doc/en/_changelog_towncrier_draft.rst{.interpreted-text role="file"}. 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:
```
$ git clean -x -i -- doc/en/_changelog_towncrier_draft.rst
```
-- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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 webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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 webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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]{.title-ref}
button instead.

-- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#12522: The :pull: RST role has been replaced with a shorter
:pr: due to starting to use the implementation from
the third-party sphinx-issues{.interpreted-text role="pypi"} Sphinx extension
-- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}.
#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 webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#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 webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}
#12562: Possible typos in using the :user: RST role is now being linted
through the pre-commit tool integration -- by webknjaz{.interpreted-text role="user"}.

Deprecations

#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:
- pytest_ignore_collect{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - the path parameter - use collection_path instead.
- pytest_collect_file{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - the path parameter - use file_path instead.
- pytest_pycollect_makemodule{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - the path parameter - use module_path instead.
- pytest_report_header{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - the startdir parameter - use start_path instead.
- pytest_report_collectionfinish{.interpreted-text role="hook"} - 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 legacy-path-hooks-deprecated{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more details.

Features

#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 Read arguments from file <args-from-file>{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for details.

Improvements

#11523: pytest.importorskip{.interpreted-text role="func"} will now issue a warning if the module could be found, but raised ImportError{.interpreted-text role="class"} instead of ModuleNotFoundError{.interpreted-text role="class"}.

The warning can be suppressed by passing exc_type=ImportError to pytest.importorskip{.interpreted-text role="func"}.

See import-or-skip-import-error{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for details.
#11728: For unittest-based tests, exceptions during class cleanup (as raised by functions registered with TestCase.addClassCleanup <unittest.TestCase.addClassCleanup>{.interpreted-text role="meth"}) are now reported instead of silently failing.
#11777: Text is no longer truncated in the short test summary info section when -vv is given.
#12112: Improved namespace packages detection when consider_namespace_packages{.interpreted-text role="confval"} is enabled, covering more situations (like editable installs).
#9502: Added PYTEST_VERSION{.interpreted-text role="envvar"} 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: 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 request.instance <pytest.FixtureRequest.instance>{.interpreted-text role="attr"} 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: 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: Fixed a bug with --importmode=importlib and --doctest-modules where child modules did not appear as attributes in parent modules.
#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: pluggy>=1.5.0 is now required.
#12167: cache <cache>{.interpreted-text role="ref"}: create supporting files (CACHEDIR.TAG, .gitignore, etc.) in a temporary directory to provide atomic semantics.

::: {.note}

Note
:::

This release is not a usual bug fix release -- it contains features and improvements, being a follow up
to 8.1.0, which has been yanked from PyPI.
:::

Features

#11475: Added the new consider_namespace_packages{.interpreted-text role="confval"} configuration option, defaulting to False.

If set to True, pytest will attempt to identify modules that are part of namespace packages when importing modules.
#11653: Added the new verbosity_test_cases{.interpreted-text role="confval"} configuration option for fine-grained control of test execution verbosity.
See Fine-grained verbosity <pytest.fine_grained_verbosity>{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more details.

Improvements

#10865: pytest.warns{.interpreted-text role="func"} now validates that warnings.warn{.interpreted-text role="func"} was called with a [str]{.title-ref} or a [Warning]{.title-ref}.
Currently in Python it is possible to use other types, however this causes an exception when warnings.filterwarnings{.interpreted-text role="func"} is used to filter those warnings (see CPython #103577 for a discussion).
While this can be considered a bug in CPython, we decided to put guards in pytest as the error message produced without this check in place is confusing.
#11311: When using --override-ini for paths in invocations without a configuration file defined, the current working directory is used
as the relative directory.

Previoulsy this would raise an AssertionError{.interpreted-text role="class"}.
#11475: --import-mode=importlib <import-mode-importlib>{.interpreted-text role="ref"} now tries to import modules using the standard import mechanism (but still without changing :pysys.path{.interpreted-text role="data"}), falling back to importing modules directly only if that fails.

This means that installed packages will be imported under their canonical name if possible first, for example app.core.models, instead of having the module name always be derived from their path (for example .env310.lib.site_packages.app.core.models).
#11801: Added the iter_parents() <_pytest.nodes.Node.iter_parents>{.interpreted-text role="func"} helper method on nodes.
It is similar to listchain <_pytest.nodes.Node.listchain>{.interpreted-text role="func"}, but goes from bottom to top, and returns an iterator, not a list.
#11850: Added support for sys.last_exc{.interpreted-text role="data"} for post-mortem debugging on Python>=3.12.
#11962: In case no other suitable candidates for configuration file are found, a pyproject.toml (even without a [tool.pytest.ini_options] table) will be considered as the configuration file and define the rootdir.
#11978: Add --log-file-mode option to the logging plugin, enabling appending to log-files. This option accepts either "w" or "a" and defaults to "w".

Previously, the mode was hard-coded to be "w" which truncates the file before logging.
#12047: When multiple finalizers of a fixture raise an exception, now all exceptions are reported as an exception group.
Previously, only the first exception was reported.

Bug Fixes

#11475: Fixed regression where --importmode=importlib would import non-test modules more than once.
#11904: Fixed a regression in pytest 8.0.0 that would cause test collection to fail due to permission errors when using --pyargs.

This change improves the collection tree for tests specified using --pyargs, see 12043{.interpreted-text role="pull"} for a comparison with pytest 8.0 and <8.
#12011: Fixed a regression in 8.0.1 whereby setup_module xunit-style fixtures are not executed when --doctest-modules is passed.
#12014: Fix the stacklevel used when warning about marks used on fixtures.
#12039: Fixed a regression in 8.0.2 where tests created using tmp_path{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} have been collected multiple times in CI under Windows.

Improved Documentation

#11790: Documented the retention of temporary directories created using the tmp_path fixture in more detail.

Trivial/Internal Changes

#11785: Some changes were made to private functions which may affect plugins which access them:
- FixtureManager._getautousenames() now takes a Node itself instead of the nodeid.
- FixtureManager.getfixturedefs() now takes the Node itself instead of the nodeid.
- The _pytest.nodes.iterparentnodeids() function is removed without replacement.
  Prefer to traverse the node hierarchy itself instead.
  If you really need to, copy the function from the previous pytest release.
#12069: Delayed the deprecation of the following features to 9.0.0:
- node-ctor-fspath-deprecation{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
- legacy-path-hooks-deprecated{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
It was discovered after 8.1.0 was released that the warnings about the impeding removal were not being displayed, so the team decided to revert the removal.

This is the reason for 8.1.0 being yanked.

- FixtureManager.getfixturedefs() now takes the Node itself instead of the nodeid.
- The _pytest.nodes.iterparentnodeids() function is removed without replacement.
  Prefer to traverse the node hierarchy itself instead.
  If you really need to, copy the function from the previous pytest release.

`v8.0.2`

pytest 8.0.2 (2024-02-24)

Bug Fixes

#11895: Fix collection on Windows where initial paths contain the short version of a path (for example c:\PROGRA~1\tests).
#11953: Fix an IndexError crash raising from getstatementrange_ast.
#12021: Reverted a fix to [--maxfail]{.title-ref} handling in pytest 8.0.0 because it caused a regression in pytest-xdist whereby session fixture teardowns may get executed multiple times when the max-fails is reached.

`v8.0.1`

pytest 8.0.1 (2024-02-16)

Bug Fixes

#11875: Correctly handle errors from getpass.getuser{.interpreted-text role="func"} in Python 3.13.
#11879: Fix an edge case where ExceptionInfo._stringify_exception could crash pytest.raises{.interpreted-text role="func"}.
#11906: Fix regression with pytest.warns{.interpreted-text role="func"} using custom warning subclasses which have more than one parameter in their [__init__]{.title-ref}.
#11907: Fix a regression in pytest 8.0.0 whereby calling pytest.skip{.interpreted-text role="func"} and similar control-flow exceptions within a pytest.warns(){.interpreted-text role="func"} block would get suppressed instead of propagating.
#11929: Fix a regression in pytest 8.0.0 whereby autouse fixtures defined in a module get ignored by the doctests in the module.
#11937: Fix a regression in pytest 8.0.0 whereby items would be collected in reverse order in some circumstances.

`v7.4.3`: pytest 7.4.3 (2023-10-24)

Compare Source

Bug Fixes

#10447: Markers are now considered in the reverse mro order to ensure base class markers are considered first -- this resolves a regression.
#11239: Fixed := in asserts impacting unrelated test cases.
#11439: Handled an edge case where :data:sys.stderr might already be closed when :ref:faulthandler is tearing down.

`v7.4.2`: pytest 7.4.2 (2023-09-07)

#11367: Fixed bug where user_properties where not being saved in the JUnit XML file if a fixture failed during teardown.
#11394: Fixed crash when parsing long command line arguments that might be interpreted as files.

Improved Documentation

#11391: Improved disclaimer on pytest plugin reference page to better indicate this is an automated, non-curated listing.

`v7.4.1`: pytest 7.4.1 (2023-09-02)

Bug Fixes

#10337: Fixed bug where fake intermediate modules generated by --import-mode=importlib would not include the
child modules as attributes of the parent modules.
#10702: Fixed error assertion handling in pytest.approx when None is an expected or received value when comparing dictionaries.
#10811: Fixed issue when using --import-mode=importlib together with --doctest-modules that caused modules
to be imported more than once, causing problems with modules that have import side effects.

`v7.4.0`

Compare Source

pytest 7.4.0 (2023-06-23)

Features

#10901: Added ExceptionInfo.from_exception() <pytest.ExceptionInfo.from_exception>{.interpreted-text role="func"}, a simpler way to create an ~pytest.ExceptionInfo{.interpreted-text role="class"} from an exception.
This can replace ExceptionInfo.from_exc_info() <pytest.ExceptionInfo.from_exc_info()>{.interpreted-text role="func"} for most uses.

Improvements

#10872: Update test log report annotation to named tuple and fixed inconsistency in docs for pytest_report_teststatus{.interpreted-text role="hook"} hook.
#10907: When an exception traceback to be displayed is completely filtered out (by mechanisms such as __tracebackhide__, internal frames, and similar), now only the exception string and the following message are shown:

"All traceback entries are hidden. Pass [--full-trace]{.title-ref} to see hidden and internal frames.".

Previously, the last frame of the traceback was shown, even though it was hidden.
#10940: Improved verbose output (-vv) of skip and xfail reasons by performing text wrapping while leaving a clear margin for progress output.

Added TerminalReporter.wrap_write() as a helper for that.
#10991: Added handling of %f directive to print microseconds in log format options, such as log-date-format.
#11005: Added the underlying exception to the cache provider's path creation and write warning messages.
#11013: Added warning when testpaths{.interpreted-text role="confval"} is set, but paths are not found by glob. In this case, pytest will fall back to searching from the current directory.
#11043: When [--confcutdir]{.title-ref} is not specified, and there is no config file present, the conftest cutoff directory ([--confcutdir]{.title-ref}) is now set to the rootdir <rootdir>{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
Previously in such cases, [conftest.py]{.title-ref} files would be probed all the way to the root directory of the filesystem.
If you are badly affected by this change, consider adding an empty config file to your desired cutoff directory, or explicitly set [--confcutdir]{.title-ref}.
#11081: The norecursedirs{.interpreted-text role="confval"} check is now performed in a pytest_ignore_collect{.interpreted-text role="hook"} implementation, so plugins can affect it.

If after updating to this version you see that your [norecursedirs]{.title-ref} setting is not being respected,
it means that a conftest or a plugin you use has a bad [pytest_ignore_collect]{.title-ref} implementation.
Most likely, your hook returns [False]{.title-ref} for paths it does not want to ignore,
which ends the processing and doesn't allow other plugins, including pytest itself, to ignore the path.
The fix is to return [None]{.title-ref} instead of [False]{.title-ref} for paths your hook doesn't want to ignore.
#8711: caplog.set_level() <pytest.LogCaptureFixture.set_level>{.interpreted-text role="func"} and caplog.at_level() <pytest.LogCaptureFixture.at_level>{.interpreted-text role="func"}
will temporarily enable the requested level if level was disabled globally via
logging.disable(LEVEL).

Bug Fixes

#10831: Terminal Reporting: Fixed bug when running in --tb=line mode where pytest.fail(pytrace=False) tests report None.
#11068: Fixed the --last-failed whole-file skipping functionality ("skipped N files") for non-python test files <non-python tests>{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.
#11104: Fixed a regression in pytest 7.3.2 which caused to testpaths{.interpreted-text role="confval"} to be considered for loading initial conftests,
even when it was not utilized (e.g. when explicit paths were given on the command line).
Now the testpaths are only considered when they are in use.
#1904: Fixed traceback entries hidden with __tracebackhide__ = True still being shown for chained exceptions (parts after "... the above exception ..." message).
#7781: Fix writing non-encodable text to log file when using --debug.

Improved Documentation

#9146: Improved documentation for caplog.set_level() <pytest.LogCaptureFixture.set_level>{.interpreted-text role="func"}.

Trivial/Internal Changes

#11031: Enhanced the CLI flag for -c to now include --config-file to make it clear that this flag applies to the usage of a custom config file.

`v7.3.2`

Compare Source

pytest 7.3.2 (2023-06-10)

Bug Fixes

#10169: Fix bug where very long option names could cause pytest to break with OSError: [Errno 36] File name too long on some systems.
#10894: Support for Python 3.12 (beta at the time of writing).
#10987: testpaths{.interpreted-text role="confval"} is now honored to load root conftests.
#10999: The [monkeypatch]{.title-ref} [setitem]{.title-ref}/[delitem]{.title-ref} type annotations now allow [TypedDict]{.title-ref} arguments.
#11028: Fixed bug in assertion rewriting where a variable assigned with the walrus operator could not be used later in a function call.
#11054: Fixed --last-failed's "(skipped N files)" functionality for files inside of packages (directories with [__init__.py]{.title-ref} files).

`v7.3.1`

Compare Source

pytest 7.3.1 (2023-04-14)

Improvements

#10875: Python 3.12 support: fixed RuntimeError: TestResult has no addDuration method when running unittest tests.
#10890: Python 3.12 support: fixed shutil.rmtree(onerror=...) deprecation warning when using tmp_path{.interpreted-text role="fixture"}.

Bug Fixes

#10896: Fixed performance regression related to tmp_path{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} and the new tmp_path_retention_policy{.interpreted-text role="confval"} option.
#10903: Fix crash INTERNALERROR IndexError: list index out of range which happens when displaying an exception where all entries are hidden.
This reverts the change "Correctly handle __tracebackhide__ for chained exceptions." introduced in version 7.3.0.

`v7.3.0`

Compare Source

pytest 7.3.0 (2023-04-08)

Features

#10525: Test methods decorated with @classmethod can now be discovered as tests, following the same rules as normal methods. This fills the gap that static methods were discoverable as tests but not class methods.
#10755: console_output_style{.interpreted-text role="confval"} now supports progress-even-when-capture-no to force the use of the progress output even when capture is disabled. This is useful in large test suites where capture may have significant performance impact.
#7431: --log-disable CLI option added to disable individual loggers.
#8141: Added tmp_path_retention_count{.interpreted-text role="confval"} and tmp_path_retention_policy{.interpreted-text role="confval"} configuration options to control how directories created by the tmp_path{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} fixture are kept.

Improvements

#10226: If multiple errors are raised in teardown, we now re-raise an ExceptionGroup of them instead of discarding all but the last.
#10658: Allow -p arguments to include spaces (eg: -p no:logging instead of
-pno:logging). Mostly useful in the addopts section of the configuration
file.
#10710: Added start and stop timestamps to TestReport objects.
#10727: Split the report header for rootdir, config file and testpaths so each has its own line.
#10840: pytest should no longer crash on AST with pathological position attributes, for example testing AST produced by [Hylang <https://github.com/hylang/hy>\__]{.title-ref}.
#6267: The full output of a test is no longer truncated if the truncation message would be longer than
the hidden text. The line number shown has also b
