v3.6.0

Compare Source

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

This release was YANKED due to a regression fixed in 3.6.1.

Features

• #&#8203;1027 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/pull/1027>_:pytest-xdist workers now always execute the tests in the main thread.
  Previously some tests might end up executing in a separate thread other than main in the workers, due to some internal execnet`` details. This can cause problems specially with async frameworks where the event loop is running in the ``main`` thread (for example #​620 #​620`__).

Bug Fixes

• #&#8203;1024 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1024>_: Added proper handling of shouldstop (such as set by --max-fail) and shouldfail conditions in workers.
  Previously, a worker might have continued executing further tests before the controller could terminate the session.

• #&#8203;1028 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1028>_: Fixed compatibility issue between looponfail and editable installs.

• #&#8203;620 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/620>_: Use the new main_thread_only execnet "execmodel" so that code which expects to only run in the main thread will now work as expected.

• #&#8203;937 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/937>_: Fixed a bug where plugin would raise an incompatibility error with --pdb despite using -n0.

Removals

• #&#8203;1053 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1053>_: Dropped support for Python 3.7.

• #&#8203;1057 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1057>_: pytest>=7.0.0 is now required.

  execnet>=2.1.0 is now required.

Trivial Changes

• #&#8203;1020 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1020>_: pytest-xdist's setup.py file is removed.

  If you relied on this file, e.g. to install pytest using setup.py install,
  please see Why you shouldn't invoke setup.py directly <https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/setup-py-deprecated.html#summary>_ for alternatives.

• #&#8203;1057 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1057>_: The internals of pytest-xdist are now fully typed. The typing is not exposed yet.

• #&#8203;996 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/996>_: Adjusted license file format and content to ensure security scanners will identity the license.
