Announcement: new maintainer for pytest-cov and cov-core
Hey, as the original author of these packages is unresponsive for almost two years now, I requested maintainer status on PyPI ( http://sourceforge.net/p/pypi/support-requests/352/). If anyone is interested in (co-)maintaining any of these packages please get in touch. I'm happy to share or transfer responsibility if someone is more suitable than me. I'm considering moving the repositories to GitHub. What do you think about that? Additionally, I got maintainer status of nose-cov and nose2-cov (because they are from the same author) but I'm not interested in actively maintaining them. If someone is willing to take these over just let me know. Regards, Marc

Thanks a lot for caring!

Fine with me!

Probably makes sense post this info to nose-dev (if you didn't already) and/or testing-in-python mailing list. One thing that i'd like to point out: pytest grew with 2.5 IIRC the ability to intercept pytest startup very early, before loading conftests, through the pytest_load_initial_conftests hook. It sees all options provided by core and setuptools-managed plugins and thus would allow pytest-cov to initiate coverage before conftest.py files (and before collection of course) and thus before project-specific code executes. This should give much better default output as modules imported from conftest files will be correctly included. For an example you can look at the _pytest/capture.py. best, holger
