  • Breaking changes in pytest 8

    Hi,

    I recently uploaded the pre-release pytest 8.0.0~rc1 to experimental
    as an early warning for the breaking changes which typically happen
    on major version bumps.

    I've attached a dd-list of packages which exhibit autopkgtest
    regressions [1], with the intent of MBF'ing (with separate
    announcement) once pytest 8 is released.

    Typically, packages will fail if they
    - have deprecation warnings of type PytestRemovedIn8Warning, or
    - assume a particular pytest stdout/stderr output which might have
    changed, or
    - rely on the precise order in which pytest collects tests,
    especially the behavior of the pytest.Package collector.

    Please refer to the upstream changelog [2] for a complete list of
    breaking changes.


    Cheers
    Timo

    Hi Timo,

    Please can we hold back on uploading pytest 8 to unstable until the
    current Python 3.12 transition is complete? It is entirely possible
    that several of the packages that currently break with pytest 8
    already have newer upstream versions that address these issues, but
    it's probably not wise to mix that in with the current transition.

    Best wishes,

    Julian

    Agreed! There currently a lot of instability caused by 3.12 transition
    and waiting a little bit would certainly make things easier to deal with :)

    Sure! I'll keep it in experimental, and we can check what still
    needs fixing after the Python 3.12 dust has settled.


    Cheers

    Hi Timo,

    And the transition is now complete :-)

    Best wishes,
