pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than 1100 tests against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms. This release is supposed to be drop-in compatible to 2.8.1.

See below for the changes and see docs at:

As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::

pip install -U pytest
