Hey everyone, I'm happy to announce pytest 2.8.6 has been released. pytest is a widely used mature test runner both for unit and functional tests in Python. See http://pytest.org for documentation and examples. Here are the fixes for this release: - fix #1259: allow for double nodeids in junitxml, this was a regression failing plugins combinations like pytest-pep8 + pytest-flakes - Workaround for exception that occurs in pyreadline when using ``--pdb`` with standard I/O capture enabled. Thanks Erik M. Bray for the PR. - fix #900: Better error message in case the target of a ``monkeypatch`` call raises an ``ImportError``. - fix #1292: monkeypatch calls (setattr, setenv, etc.) are now O(1). Thanks David R. MacIver for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR. - fix #1223: captured stdout and stderr are now properly displayed before entering pdb when ``--pdb`` is used instead of being thrown away. Thanks Cal Leeming for the PR. - fix #1305: pytest warnings emitted during ``pytest_terminal_summary`` are now properly displayed. Thanks Ionel Maries Cristian for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR. - fix #628: fixed internal UnicodeDecodeError when doctests contain unicode. Thanks Jason R. Coombs for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR. - fix #1334: Add captured stdout to jUnit XML report on setup error. Thanks Georgy Dyuldin for the PR.
