It is not very clear why this code exists -- we are not running any
unittest or nose code during collection, and really these frameworks
don't have the concept of collection at all, and just raising these
exceptions at e.g. the module level would cause an error. So unless I'm
missing something, I don't think anyone is using this.
Deprecate it so we can eventually clear up this code and keep unittest
more tightly restricted to its plugin.
In order to allow users to type annotate fixtures they request, the
types need to be imported from the `pytest` namespace. They are/were
always available to import from the `_pytest` namespace, but that is
not guaranteed to be stable.
These types are only exported for the purpose of typing. Specifically,
the following are *not* public:
- Construction (`__init__`)
- Subclassing
- staticmethods and classmethods
We try to combat them being used anyway by:
- Marking the classes as `@final` when possible (already done).
- Not documenting private stuff in the API Reference.
- Using `_`-prefixed names or marking as `:meta private:` for private
stuff.
- Adding a keyword-only `_ispytest=False` to private constructors,
warning if False, and changing pytest itself to pass True. In the
future it will (hopefully) become a hard error.
Hopefully that will be enough.
This fixes an issue where pylint complains about missing implementations
of abstract methods in subclasses of `File` which only override
`collect()` (as they should).
It is also cleaner and makes sense, these methods really don't need to
be overridden.
The previous methods defined directly on `FSCollector` and `Package` are
deprecated, to be removed in pytest 7.
See commits e2934c3f8c and
f10ab021e2 for reference.
The `-k '-expr'` syntax is an old alias to `-k 'not expr'`. It's also
not a very convenient to have syntax that start with `-` on the CLI.
Deprecate it and suggest replacing with `not`.
---
The `-k 'expr:'` syntax discards all items until the first match and
keeps all subsequent, e.g. `-k foo` with
test_bar
test_foo
test_baz
results in `test_foo`, `test_baz`. That's a bit weird, so deprecate it
without a replacement. If someone complains we can reconsider or devise
a better alternative.
This function is exposed and kept alive for the oejskit plugin which is
abandoned and no longer works with recent plugins, so let's prepare to
completely remove it.
