Scheduled monthly dependency update for June

[pyup-bot]

Update coverage from 6.3.2 to 7.5.3.

Changelog

7.5.3

--------------------------

- Performance improvements for combining data files, especially when measuring
line coverage. A few different quadratic behaviors were eliminated. In one
extreme case of combining 700+ data files, the time dropped from more than
three hours to seven minutes.  Thanks for Kraken Tech for funding the fix.

- Performance improvements for generating HTML reports, with a side benefit of
reducing memory use, closing `issue 1791`_.  Thanks to Daniel Diniz for
helping to diagnose the problem.

.. _issue 1791: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1791


.. _changes_7-5-2:

7.5.2

--------------------------

- Fix: nested matches of exclude patterns could exclude too much code, as
reported in `issue 1779`_.  This is now fixed.

- Changed: previously, coverage.py would consider a module docstring to be an
executable statement if it appeared after line 1 in the file, but not
executable if it was the first line.  Now module docstrings are never counted
as executable statements.  This can change coverage.py's count of the number
of statements in a file, which can slightly change the coverage percentage
reported.

- In the HTML report, the filter term and "hide covered" checkbox settings are
remembered between viewings, thanks to `Daniel Diniz <pull 1776_>`_.

- Python 3.13.0b1 is supported.

- Fix: parsing error handling is improved to ensure bizarre source files are
handled gracefully, and to unblock oss-fuzz fuzzing, thanks to `Liam DeVoe
<pull 1788_>`_. Closes `issue 1787`_.

.. _changes_7-5-1:

7.5.1

--------------------------

- Fix: a pragma comment on the continuation lines of a multi-line statement
now excludes the statement and its body, the same as if the pragma is
on the first line. This closes `issue 754`_. The fix was contributed by
`Daniel Diniz <pull 1773_>`_.

- Fix: very complex source files like `this one <resolvent_lookup_>`_ could
cause a maximum recursion error when creating an HTML report.  This is now
fixed, closing `issue 1774`_.

- HTML report improvements:

- Support files (JavaScript and CSS) referenced by the HTML report now have
 hashes added to their names to ensure updated files are used instead of
 stale cached copies.

- Missing branch coverage explanations that said "the condition was never
 false" now read "the condition was always true" because it's easier to
 understand.

- Column sort order is remembered better as you move between the index pages,
 fixing `issue 1766`_.  Thanks, `Daniel Diniz <pull 1768_>`_.

.. _changes_7-5-0:

7.5.0

--------------------------

- Added initial support for function and class reporting in the HTML report.
There are now three index pages which link to each other: files, functions,
and classes.  Other reports don't yet have this information, but it will be
added in the future where it makes sense.  Feedback gladly accepted!
Finishes `issue 780`_.

- Other HTML report improvements:

- There is now a "hide covered" checkbox to filter out 100% files, finishing
 `issue 1384`_.

- The index page is always sorted by one of its columns, with clearer
 indications of the sorting.

- The "previous file" shortcut key didn't work on the index page, but now it
 does, fixing `issue 1765`_.

- The debug output showing which configuration files were tried now shows
absolute paths to help diagnose problems where settings aren't taking effect,
and is renamed from "attempted_config_files" to the more logical
"config_files_attempted."

- Python 3.13.0a6 is supported.

.. _issue 1765: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1765


.. _changes_7-4-4:

7.4.4

--------------------------

- Fix: in some cases, even with ``[run] relative_files=True``, a data file
could be created with absolute path names.  When combined with other relative
data files, it was random whether the absolute file names would be made
relative or not. If they weren't, then a file would be listed twice in
reports, as detailed in `issue 1752`_.  This is now fixed: absolute file
names are always made relative when combining.  Thanks to Bruno Rodrigues dos
Santos for support.

- Fix: the last case of a match/case statement had an incorrect message if the
branch was missed.  It said the pattern never matched, when actually the
branch is missed if the last case always matched.

- Fix: clicking a line number in the HTML report now positions more accurately.

- Fix: the ``report:format`` setting was defined as a boolean, but should be a
string.  Thanks, `Tanaydin Sirin <pull 1754_>`_.  It is also now documented
on the :ref:`configuration page <config_report_format>`.

.. _issue 1752: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1752
.. _pull 1754: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1754


.. _changes_7-4-3:

7.4.3

--------------------------

- Fix: in some cases, coverage could fail with a RuntimeError: "Set changed
size during iteration." This is now fixed, closing `issue 1733`_.

.. _issue 1733: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1733


.. _changes_7-4-2:

7.4.2

--------------------------

- Fix: setting ``COVERAGE_CORE=sysmon`` no longer errors on 3.11 and lower,
thanks `Hugo van Kemenade <pull 1747_>`_.  It now issues a warning that
sys.monitoring is not available and falls back to the default core instead.

.. _pull 1747: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1747


.. _changes_7-4-1:

7.4.1

--------------------------

- Python 3.13.0a3 is supported.

- Fix: the JSON report now includes an explicit format version number, closing
`issue 1732`_.

.. _issue 1732: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1732


.. _changes_7-4-0:

7.4.0

--------------------------

- In Python 3.12 and above, you can try an experimental core based on the new
:mod:`sys.monitoring <python:sys.monitoring>` module by defining a
``COVERAGE_CORE=sysmon`` environment variable.  This should be faster for
line coverage, but not for branch coverage, and plugins and dynamic contexts
are not yet supported with it.  I am very interested to hear how it works (or
doesn't!) for you.


.. _changes_7-3-4:

7.3.4

--------------------------

- Fix: the change for multi-line signature exclusions in 7.3.3 broke other
forms of nested clauses being excluded properly.  This is now fixed, closing
`issue 1713`_.

- Fix: in the HTML report, selecting code for copying won't select the line
numbers also. Thanks, `Robert Harris <pull 1717_>`_.

.. _issue 1713: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1713
.. _pull 1717: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1717


.. _changes_7-3-3:

7.3.3

--------------------------

- Fix: function definitions with multi-line signatures can now be excluded by
matching any of the lines, closing `issue 684`_.  Thanks, `Jan Rusak,
Maciej Kowalczyk and Joanna Ejzel <pull 1705_>`_.

- Fix: XML reports could fail with a TypeError if files had numeric components
that were duplicates except for leading zeroes, like ``file1.py`` and
``file001.py``.  Fixes `issue 1709`_.

- The ``coverage annotate`` command used to announce that it would be removed
in a future version. Enough people got in touch to say that they use it, so
it will stay.  Don't expect it to keep up with other new features though.

- Added new :ref:`debug options <cmd_run_debug>`:

- ``pytest`` writes the pytest test name into the debug output.

- ``dataop2`` writes the full data being added to CoverageData objects.

.. _pull 1705: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1705
.. _issue 1709: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1709


.. _changes_7-3-2:

7.3.2

--------------------------

- The ``coverage lcov`` command ignored the ``[report] exclude_lines`` and
``[report] exclude_also`` settings (`issue 1684`_).  This is now fixed,
thanks `Jacqueline Lee <pull 1685_>`_.

- Sometimes SQLite will create journal files alongside the coverage.py database
files.  These are ephemeral, but could be mistakenly included when combining
data files.  Now they are always ignored, fixing `issue 1605`_. Thanks to
Brad Smith for suggesting fixes and providing detailed debugging.

- On Python 3.12+, we now disable SQLite writing journal files, which should be
a little faster.

- The new 3.12 soft keyword ``type`` is properly bolded in HTML reports.

- Removed the "fullcoverage" feature used by CPython to measure the coverage of
early-imported standard library modules.  CPython `stopped using it
<88054_>`_ in 2021, and it stopped working completely in Python 3.13.

.. _changes_7-3-1:

7.3.1

--------------------------

- The semantics of stars in file patterns has been clarified in the docs.  A
leading or trailing star matches any number of path components, like a double
star would.  This is different than the behavior of a star in the middle of a
pattern.  This discrepancy was `identified by Sviatoslav Sydorenko
<starbad_>`_, who `provided patient detailed diagnosis <pull 1650_>`_ and
graciously agreed to a pragmatic resolution.

- The API docs were missing from the last version. They are now `restored
<apidocs_>`_.

.. _apidocs: https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api_coverage.html
.. _starbad: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1407#issuecomment-1631085209
.. _pull 1650: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1650

.. _changes_7-3-0:

7.3.0

--------------------------

- Added a :meth:`.Coverage.collect` context manager to start and stop coverage
data collection.

- Dropped support for Python 3.7.

- Fix: in unusual circumstances, SQLite cannot be set to asynchronous mode.
Coverage.py would fail with the error ``Safety level may not be changed
inside a transaction.`` This is now avoided, closing `issue 1646`_.  Thanks
to Michael Bell for the detailed bug report.

- Docs: examples of configuration files now include separate examples for the
different syntaxes: .coveragerc, pyproject.toml, setup.cfg, and tox.ini.

- Fix: added ``nosemgrep`` comments to our JavaScript code so that
semgrep-based SAST security checks won't raise false alarms about security
problems that aren't problems.

- Added a CITATION.cff file, thanks to `Ken Schackart <pull 1641_>`_.

.. _changes_7-2-7:

7.2.7

--------------------------

- Fix: reverted a `change from 6.4.3 <pull 1347b_>`_ that helped Cython, but
also increased the size of data files when using dynamic contexts, as
described in the now-fixed `issue 1586`_. The problem is now avoided due to a
recent change (`issue 1538 <issue 1538b_>`_).  Thanks to `Anders Kaseorg
<pull 1629_>`_ and David Szotten for persisting with problem reports and
detailed diagnoses.

- Wheels are now provided for CPython 3.12.

.. _changes_7-2-6:

7.2.6

--------------------------

- Fix: the ``lcov`` command could raise an IndexError exception if a file is
translated to Python but then executed under its own name.  Jinja2 does this
when rendering templates.  Fixes `issue 1553`_.

- Python 3.12 beta 1 now inlines comprehensions.  Previously they were compiled
as invisible functions and coverage.py would warn you if they weren't
completely executed.  This no longer happens under Python 3.12.

- Fix: the ``coverage debug sys`` command includes some environment variables
in its output.  This could have included sensitive data.  Those values are
now hidden with asterisks, closing `issue 1628`_.

.. _issue 1553: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1553
.. _issue 1628: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1628


.. _changes_7-2-5:

7.2.5

--------------------------

- Fix: ``html_report()`` could fail with an AttributeError on ``isatty`` if run
in an unusual environment where sys.stdout had been replaced.  This is now
fixed.


.. _changes_7-2-4:

7.2.4

--------------------------

PyCon 2023 sprint fixes!

- Fix: with ``relative_files = true``, specifying a specific file to include or
omit wouldn't work correctly (`issue 1604`_).  This is now fixed, with
testing help by `Marc Gibbons <pull 1608_>`_.

- Fix: the XML report would have an incorrect ``<source>`` element when using
relative files and the source option ended with a slash (`issue 1541`_).
This is now fixed, thanks to `Kevin Brown-Silva <pull 1608_>`_.

- When the HTML report location is printed to the terminal, it's now a
terminal-compatible URL, so that you can click the location to open the HTML
file in your browser.  Finishes `issue 1523`_ thanks to `Ricardo Newbery
<pull 1613_>`_.

- Docs: a new :ref:`Migrating page <migrating>` with details about how to
migrate between major versions of coverage.py.  It currently covers the
wildcard changes in 7.x.  Thanks, `Brian Grohe <pull 1610_>`_.

.. _changes_7-2-3:

7.2.3

--------------------------

- Fix: the :ref:`config_run_sigterm` setting was meant to capture data if a
process was terminated with a SIGTERM signal, but it didn't always.  This was
fixed thanks to `Lewis Gaul <pull 1600_>`_, closing `issue 1599`_.

- Performance: HTML reports with context information are now much more compact.
File sizes are typically as small as one-third the previous size, but can be
dramatically smaller. This closes `issue 1584`_ thanks to `Oleh Krehel
<pull 1587_>`_.

- Development dependencies no longer use hashed pins, closing `issue 1592`_.

.. _changes_7-2-2:

7.2.2

--------------------------

- Fix: if a virtualenv was created inside a source directory, and a sourced
package was installed inside the virtualenv, then all of the third-party
packages inside the virtualenv would be measured.  This was incorrect, but
has now been fixed: only the specified packages will be measured, thanks to
`Manuel Jacob <pull 1560_>`_.

- Fix: the ``coverage lcov`` command could create a .lcov file with incorrect
LF (lines found) and LH (lines hit) totals.  This is now fixed, thanks to
`Ian Moore <pull 1583_>`_.

- Fix: the ``coverage xml`` command on Windows could create a .xml file with
duplicate ``<package>`` elements. This is now fixed, thanks to `Benjamin
Parzella <pull 1574_>`_, closing `issue 1573`_.

.. _changes_7-2-1:

7.2.1

--------------------------

- Fix: the PyPI page had broken links to documentation pages, but no longer
does, closing `issue 1566`_.

- Fix: public members of the coverage module are now properly indicated so that
mypy will find them, fixing `issue 1564`_.

.. _issue 1566: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1566


.. _changes_7-2-0:

7.2.0

--------------------------

- Added a new setting ``[report] exclude_also`` to let you add more exclusions
without overwriting the defaults.  Thanks, `Alpha Chen <pull 1557_>`_,
closing `issue 1391`_.

- Added a :meth:`.CoverageData.purge_files` method to remove recorded data for
a particular file.  Contributed by `Stephan Deibel <pull 1547_>`_.

- Fix: when reporting commands fail, they will no longer congratulate
themselves with messages like "Wrote XML report to file.xml" before spewing a
traceback about their failure.

- Fix: arguments in the public API that name file paths now accept pathlib.Path
objects.  This includes the ``data_file`` and ``config_file`` arguments to
the Coverage constructor and the ``basename`` argument to CoverageData.
Closes `issue 1552`_.

- Fix: In some embedded environments, an IndexError could occur on stop() when
the originating thread exits before completion.  This is now fixed, thanks to
`Russell Keith-Magee <pull 1543_>`_, closing `issue 1542`_.

- Added a ``py.typed`` file to announce our type-hintedness.  Thanks,
`KotlinIsland <pull 1550_>`_.

7.1.0

--------------------------

- Added: the debug output file can now be specified with ``[run] debug_file``
in the configuration file.  Closes `issue 1319`_.

- Performance: fixed a slowdown with dynamic contexts that's been around since
6.4.3.  The fix closes `issue 1538`_.  Thankfully this doesn't break the
`Cython change`_ that fixed `issue 972`_.  Thanks to Mathieu Kniewallner for
the deep investigative work and comprehensive issue report.

- Typing: all product and test code has type annotations.

7.0.5

--------------------------

- Fix: On Python 3.7, a file with type annotations but no ``from __future__
import annotations`` would be missing statements in the coverage report. This
is now fixed, closing `issue 1524`_.

.. _issue 1524: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1524


.. _changes_7-0-4:

7.0.4

--------------------------

- Performance: an internal cache of file names was accidentally disabled,
resulting in sometimes drastic reductions in performance.  This is now fixed,
closing `issue 1527`_.   Thanks to Ivan Ciuvalschii for the reproducible test
case.

.. _issue 1527: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1527


.. _changes_7-0-3:

7.0.3

--------------------------

- Fix: when using pytest-cov or pytest-xdist, or perhaps both, the combining
step could fail with ``assert row is not None`` using 7.0.2.  This was due to
a race condition that has always been possible and is still possible. In
7.0.1 and before, the error was silently swallowed by the combining code.
Now it will produce a message "Couldn't combine data file" and ignore the
data file as it used to do before 7.0.2.  Closes `issue 1522`_.

.. _issue 1522: https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1522


.. _changes_7-0-2:

7.0.2

--------------------------

- Fix: when using the ``[run] relative_files = True`` setting, a relative
``[paths]`` pattern was still being made absolute.  This is now fixed,
closing `issue 1519`_.

- Fix: if Python doesn't provide tomllib, then TOML configuration files can
only be read if coverage.py is installed with the ``[toml]`` extra.
Coverage.py will raise an error if TOML support is not installed when it sees
your settings are in a .toml file. But it didn't understand that
``[tools.coverage]`` was a valid section header, so the error wasn't reported
if you used that header, and settings were silently ignored.  This is now
fixed, closing `issue 1516`_.

- Fix: adjusted how decorators are traced on PyPy 7.3.10, fixing `issue 1515`_.

- Fix: the ``coverage lcov`` report did not properly implement the
``--fail-under=MIN`` option.  This has been fixed.

- Refactor: added many type annotations, including a number of refactorings.
This should not affect outward behavior, but they were a bit invasive in some
places, so keep your eyes peeled for oddities.

- Refactor: removed the vestigial and long untested support for Jython and
IronPython.

.. _changes_7-0-1:

7.0.1

--------------------------

- When checking if a file mapping resolved to a file that exists, we weren't
considering files in .whl files.  This is now fixed, closing `issue 1511`_.

- File pattern rules were too strict, forbidding plus signs and curly braces in
directory and file names.  This is now fixed, closing `issue 1513`_.

- Unusual Unicode or control characters in source files could prevent
reporting.  This is now fixed, closing `issue 1512`_.

- The PyPy wheel now installs on PyPy 3.7, 3.8, and 3.9, closing `issue 1510`_.

Nothing new beyond 7.0.0b1.


.. _changes_7-0-0b1:

7.0.0b1

----------------------------

A number of changes have been made to file path handling, including pattern
matching and path remapping with the ``[paths]`` setting (see
:ref:`config_paths`).  These changes might affect you, and require you to
update your settings.

(This release includes the changes from `6.6.0b1`__, since 6.6.0 was never
released.)

__ https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changes.html#changes-6-6-0b1

- Changes to file pattern matching, which might require updating your
configuration:

- Previously, ``*`` would incorrectly match directory separators, making
 precise matching difficult.  This is now fixed, closing `issue 1407`_.

- Now ``**`` matches any number of nested directories, including none.

- Improvements to combining data files when using the
:ref:`config_run_relative_files` setting, which might require updating your
configuration:

- During ``coverage combine``, relative file paths are implicitly combined
 without needing a ``[paths]`` configuration setting.  This also fixed
 `issue 991`_.

- A ``[paths]`` setting like ``*/foo`` will now match ``foo/bar.py`` so that
 relative file paths can be combined more easily.

- The :ref:`config_run_relative_files` setting is properly interpreted in
 more places, fixing `issue 1280`_.

- When remapping file paths with ``[paths]``, a path will be remapped only if
the resulting path exists.  The documentation has long said the prefix had to
exist, but it was never enforced.  This fixes `issue 608`_, improves `issue
649`_, and closes `issue 757`_.

- Reporting operations now implicitly use the ``[paths]`` setting to remap file
paths within a single data file.  Combining multiple files still requires the
``coverage combine`` step, but this simplifies some single-file situations.
Closes `issue 1212`_ and `issue 713`_.

- The ``coverage report`` command now has a ``--format=`` option.  The original
style is now ``--format=text``, and is the default.

- Using ``--format=markdown`` will write the table in Markdown format, thanks
 to `Steve Oswald <pull 1479_>`_, closing `issue 1418`_.

- Using ``--format=total`` will write a single total number to the
 output.  This can be useful for making badges or writing status updates.

- Combining data files with ``coverage combine`` now hashes the data files to
skip files that add no new information.  This can reduce the time needed.
Many details affect the speed-up, but for coverage.py's own test suite,
combining is about 40% faster. Closes `issue 1483`_.

- When searching for completely un-executed files, coverage.py uses the
presence of ``__init__.py`` files to determine which directories have source
that could have been imported.  However, `implicit namespace packages`_ don't
require ``__init__.py``.  A new setting ``[report]
include_namespace_packages`` tells coverage.py to consider these directories
during reporting.  Thanks to `Felix Horvat <pull 1387_>`_ for the
contribution.  Closes `issue 1383`_ and `issue 1024`_.

- Fixed environment variable expansion in pyproject.toml files.  It was overly
broad, causing errors outside of coverage.py settings, as described in `issue
1481`_ and `issue 1345`_.  This is now fixed, but in rare cases will require
changing your pyproject.toml to quote non-string values that use environment
substitution.

- An empty file has a coverage total of 100%, but used to fail with
``--fail-under``.  This has been fixed, closing `issue 1470`_.

- The text report table no longer writes out two separator lines if there are
no files listed in the table.  One is plenty.

- Fixed a mis-measurement of a strange use of wildcard alternatives in
match/case statements, closing `issue 1421`_.

- Fixed internal logic that prevented coverage.py from running on
implementations other than CPython or PyPy (`issue 1474`_).

- The deprecated ``[run] note`` setting has been completely removed.

6.6.0b1

----------------------------

(Note: 6.6.0 final was never released. These changes are part of `7.0.0b1`__.)

__ https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changes.html#changes-7-0-0b1

- Changes to file pattern matching, which might require updating your
configuration:

- Previously, ``*`` would incorrectly match directory separators, making
 precise matching difficult.  This is now fixed, closing `issue 1407`_.

- Now ``**`` matches any number of nested directories, including none.

- Improvements to combining data files when using the
:ref:`config_run_relative_files` setting:

- During ``coverage combine``, relative file paths are implicitly combined
 without needing a ``[paths]`` configuration setting.  This also fixed
 `issue 991`_.

- A ``[paths]`` setting like ``*/foo`` will now match ``foo/bar.py`` so that
 relative file paths can be combined more easily.

- The setting is properly interpreted in more places, fixing `issue 1280`_.

- Fixed environment variable expansion in pyproject.toml files.  It was overly
broad, causing errors outside of coverage.py settings, as described in `issue
1481`_ and `issue 1345`_.  This is now fixed, but in rare cases will require
changing your pyproject.toml to quote non-string values that use environment
substitution.

implementations other than CPython or PyPy (`issue 1474`_).

6.5.0

--------------------------

- The JSON report now includes details of which branches were taken, and which
are missing for each file. Thanks, `Christoph Blessing <pull 1438_>`_. Closes
`issue 1425`_.

- Starting with coverage.py 6.2, ``class`` statements were marked as a branch.
This wasn't right, and has been reverted, fixing `issue 1449`_. Note this
will very slightly reduce your coverage total if you are measuring branch
coverage.

- Packaging is now compliant with `PEP 517`_, closing `issue 1395`_.

- A new debug option ``--debug=pathmap`` shows details of the remapping of
paths that happens during combine due to the ``[paths]`` setting.

- Fix an internal problem with caching of invalid Python parsing. Found by
OSS-Fuzz, fixing their `bug 50381`_.

.. _changes_6-4-3:

6.4.3

--------------------------

- Fix a failure when combining data files if the file names contained glob-like
patterns.  Thanks, `Michael Krebs and Benjamin Schubert <pull 1405_>`_.

- Fix a messaging failure when combining Windows data files on a different
drive than the current directory, closing `issue 1428`_.  Thanks, `Lorenzo
Micò <pull 1430_>`_.

- Fix path calculations when running in the root directory, as you might do in
a Docker container. Thanks `Arthur Rio <pull 1403_>`_.

- Filtering in the HTML report wouldn't work when reloading the index page.
This is now fixed.  Thanks, `Marc Legendre <pull 1413_>`_.

- Fix a problem with Cython code measurement, closing `issue 972`_.  Thanks,

.. _changes_6-4-2:

6.4.2

--------------------------

- Updated for a small change in Python 3.11.0 beta 4: modules now start with a
line with line number 0, which is ignored.  This line cannot be executed, so
coverage totals were thrown off.  This line is now ignored by coverage.py,
but this also means that truly empty modules (like ``__init__.py``) have no
lines in them, rather than one phantom line.  Fixes `issue 1419`_.

- Internal debugging data added to sys.modules is now an actual module, to
avoid confusing code that examines everything in sys.modules.  Thanks,
`Yilei Yang <pull 1399_>`_.

.. _changes_6-4-1:

6.4.1

--------------------------

- Greatly improved performance on PyPy, and other environments that need the
pure Python trace function.  Thanks, Carl Friedrich Bolz-Tereick (`pull
1381`_ and `pull 1388`_).  Slightly improved performance when using the C
trace function, as most environments do.  Closes `issue 1339`_.

- The conditions for using tomllib from the standard library have been made
more precise, so that 3.11 alphas will continue to work. Closes `issue
1390`_.

.. _changes_64:

6.4

------------------------

- A new setting, :ref:`config_run_sigterm`, controls whether a SIGTERM signal
handler is used.  In 6.3, the signal handler was always installed, to capture
data at unusual process ends.  Unfortunately, this introduced other problems
(see `issue 1310`_).  Now the signal handler is only used if you opt-in by
setting ``[run] sigterm = true``.

- Small changes to the HTML report:

- Added links to next and previous file, and more keyboard shortcuts: ``[``
 and ``]`` for next file and previous file; ``u`` for up to the index; and
 ``?`` to open/close the help panel.  Thanks, `J. M. F. Tsang
 <pull 1364_>`_.

- The time stamp and version are displayed at the top of the report.  Thanks,
 `Ammar Askar <pull 1354_>`_. Closes `issue 1351`_.

- A new debug option ``debug=sqldata`` adds more detail to ``debug=sql``,
logging all the data being written to the database.

- Previously, running ``coverage report`` (or any of the reporting commands) in
an empty directory would create a .coverage data file.  Now they do not,
fixing `issue 1328`_.

- On Python 3.11, the ``[toml]`` extra no longer installs tomli, instead using
tomllib from the standard library.  Thanks `Shantanu <pull 1359_>`_.

- In-memory CoverageData objects now properly update(), closing `issue 1323`_.

- `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.

8.1.1

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

.. 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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11475>`_: Added the new :confval:`consider_namespace_packages` configuration option, defaulting to ``False``.

If set to ``True``, pytest will attempt to identify modules that are part of `namespace packages <https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/packaging-namespace-packages>`__ when importing modules.


- `11653 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11653>`_: Added the new :confval:`verbosity_test_cases` configuration option for fine-grained control of test execution verbosity.
See :ref:`Fine-grained verbosity <pytest.fine_grained_verbosity>` for more details.



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

- `10865 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/10865>`_: :func:`pytest.warns` now validates that :func:`warnings.warn` was called with a `str` or a `Warning`.
Currently in Python it is possible to use other types, however this causes an exception when :func:`warnings.filterwarnings` is used to filter those warnings (see `CPython 103577 <https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11311>`_: When using ``--override-ini`` for paths in invocations without a configuration file defined, the current working directory is used
as the relative directory.

Previously this would raise an :class:`AssertionError`.


- `11475 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11475>`_: :ref:`--import-mode=importlib <import-mode-importlib>` now tries to import modules using the standard import mechanism (but still without changing :py:data:`sys.path`), 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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11801>`_: Added the :func:`iter_parents() <_pytest.nodes.Node.iter_parents>` helper method on nodes.
It is similar to :func:`listchain <_pytest.nodes.Node.listchain>`, but goes from bottom to top, and returns an iterator, not a list.


- `11850 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11850>`_: Added support for :data:`sys.last_exc` for post-mortem debugging on Python>=3.12.


- `11962 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11475>`_: Fixed regression where ``--importmode=importlib`` would import non-test modules more than once.


- `11904 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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 :pull:`12043` for a comparison with pytest 8.0 and <8.


- `12011 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12011>`_: Fixed a regression in 8.0.1 whereby ``setup_module`` xunit-style fixtures are not executed when ``--doctest-modules`` is passed.


- `12014 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12014>`_: Fix the ``stacklevel`` used when warning about marks used on fixtures.


- `12039 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12039>`_: Fixed a regression in ``8.0.2`` where tests created using :fixture:`tmp_path` have been collected multiple times in CI under Windows.


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

- `11790 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11790>`_: Documented the retention of temporary directories created using the ``tmp_path`` fixture in more detail.



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

- `11785 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/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 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12069>`_: Delayed the deprecation of the following features to ``9.0.0``:

* :ref:`node-ctor-fspath-deprecation`.
* :ref:`legacy-path-hooks-deprecated`.

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.

8.1.0

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


.. note::

    This release has been **yanked**: it broke some plugins without the proper warning period, due to
    some warnings not showing up as expected.

    See `12069 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12069>`__.

8.0.2

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

Bug Fixes
---------

- `11895 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11895>`_: Fix collection on Windows where initial paths contain the short version of a path (for example ``c:\PROGRA~1\tests``).


- `11953 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11953>`_: Fix an ``IndexError`` crash raising from ``getstatementrange_ast``.


- `12021 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/12021>`_: Reverted a fix to `--maxfail` 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.

8.0.1

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

Bug Fixes
---------

- `11875 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/11875>`_: Correctly handle errors from :func:`getpass.getuser` in Python 3.13.


- `11879 <https://githu
