7.0.0 (2025-09-09)

• Dropped support for subprocesses measurement.

  It was a feature added long time ago when coverage lacked a nice way to measure subprocesses created in tests. It relied on a .pth file, there was no way to opt-out and it created bad interations with coverage's new patch system <https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#run-patch>_ added in 7.10 <https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/7.10.6/changes.html#version-7-10-0-2025-07-24>_.

  To migrate to this release you might need to enable the suprocess patch, example for .coveragerc:

  .. code-block:: ini

  [run] patch = subprocess

  This release also requires at least coverage 7.10.6.

• Switched packaging to have metadata completely in pyproject.toml and use hatchling <https://pypi.org/project/hatchling/>_ for building. Contributed by Ofek Lev in [#551](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/551) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/551>_ with some extras in [#716](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/716) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/716>_.

• Removed some not really necessary testing deps like six.

6.3.0 (2025-09-06)

• Added support for markdown reports. Contributed by Marcos Boger in [#712](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/712) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/712>_ and [#714](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/714) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/714>_.

pytest 8.4.2 (2025-09-03)

Bug fixes

• #13478: Fixed a crash when using console_output_style{.interpreted-text role="confval"} with times and a module is skipped.

• #13530: Fixed a crash when using pytest.approx{.interpreted-text role="func"} and decimal.Decimal{.interpreted-text role="class"} instances with the decimal.FloatOperation{.interpreted-text role="class"} trap set.

• #13549: No longer evaluate type annotations in Python 3.14 when inspecting function signatures.

  This prevents crashes during module collection when modules do not explicitly use from __future__ import annotations and import types for annotations within a if TYPE_CHECKING: block.

• #13559: Added missing [int]{.title-ref} and [float]{.title-ref} variants to the [Literal]{.title-ref} type annotation of the [type]{.title-ref} parameter in pytest.Parser.addini{.interpreted-text role="meth"}.

• #13563: pytest.approx{.interpreted-text role="func"} now only imports numpy if NumPy is already in sys.modules. This fixes unconditional import behavior introduced in [8.4.0]{.title-ref}.

Improved documentation

• #13577: Clarify that pytest_generate_tests is discovered in test modules/classes; other hooks must be in conftest.py or plugins.

Contributor-facing changes

• #13480: Self-testing: fixed a few test failures when run with -Wdefault or a similar override.
• #13547: Self-testing: corrected expected message for test_doctest_unexpected_exception in Python 3.14.
• #13684: Make pytest's own testsuite insensitive to the presence of the CI environment variable -- by ogrisel{.interpreted-text role="user"}.
