pytest-2.4.2: colorama on windows, plugin/tmpdir fixes =========================================================================== pytest-2.4.2 is another bug-fixing release: - on Windows require colorama and a newer py lib so that py.io.TerminalWriter() now uses colorama instead of its own ctypes hacks. (fixes issue365) thanks Paul Moore for bringing it up. - fix "-k" matching of tests where "repr" and "attr" and other names would cause wrong matches because of an internal implementation quirk (don't ask) which is now properly implemented. fixes issue345. - avoid tmpdir fixture to create too long filenames especially when parametrization is used (issue354) - fix pytest-pep8 and pytest-flakes / pytest interactions (collection names in mark plugin was assuming an item always has a function which is not true for those plugins etc.) Thanks Andi Zeidler. - introduce node.get_marker/node.add_marker API for plugins like pytest-pep8 and pytest-flakes to avoid the messy details of the node.keywords pseudo-dicts. Adapted docs. - remove attempt to "dup" stdout at startup as it's icky. the normal capturing should catch enough possibilities of tests messing up standard FDs. - add pluginmanager.do_configure(config) as a link to config.do_configure() for plugin-compatibility as usual, docs at http://pytest.org and upgrades via:: pip install -U pytest have fun, holger krekel
