Since pytest now requires Python>=3.7, we can use the stdlib attrs
clone, dataclasses, instead of the OG package.
attrs is still somewhat nicer than dataclasses and has some extra
functionality, but for pytest usage there's not really a justification
IMO to impose the extra dependency on users when a standard alternative
exists.
New versions of sphinx starting showing `__init__` parameters even when
we don't want them to show because they are private (have `_ispytest`
argument).
The only working solution I found was to switch to
`autodoc_typehints_description_target = "documented"` and explicitly
document parameters for which we want to show the types. It's a little
tedious and repetitive in some simple cases, but overall it results in
nicer API docs.
`reportinfo()` is the last remaining py.path-only code path in pytest,
i.e. the last piece holding back py.path deprecation. The problem with
it is that plugins/users use it from both sides -- implementing it
(returning the value) and using it (using the return value). Dealing
with implementers is easy enough -- allow to return `os.PathLike[str]`.
But for callers who expect strictly `py.path` this will break and
there's not really a good way to provide backward compat for this.
From analyzing a corpus of 680 pytest plugins, the vast majority of
`reportinfo` appearances are implementations, and the few callers don't
actually access the path part of the return tuple.
As for test suites that might access `reportinfo` (e.g. using
`request.node.reportinfo()` or other ways), that is much harder to
survey, but from the ones I searched, I only found case
(`pytest_teamcity`, but even then it uses `str(fspath)` so is unlikely
to be affected in practice). They are better served with using
`node.location` or `node.path` directly.
Therefore, just break it and change the return type to
`str|os.PathLike[str]`.
Refs #7259.
When `pytest.skip()` is called inside a test function, the skip location
should be reported as the line that made the call, however when
`pytest.skip()` is called by the `pytest.mark.skip` and similar
mechanisms, the location should be reported at the item's location,
because the exact location is some irrelevant internal code.
Currently the item-location case is implemented by the caller setting a
boolean key on the item's store and the `skipping` plugin checking it
and fixing up the location if needed. This is really roundabout IMO and
breaks encapsulation.
Instead, allow the caller to specify directly on the skip exception
whether to use the item's location or not. For now, this is entirely
private.

This indicates at least for people using type checkers that these
classes are not designed for inheritance and we make no stability
guarantees regarding inheritance of them.
Currently this doesn't show up in the docs. Sphinx does actually support
`@final`, however it only works when imported directly from `typing`,
while we import from `_pytest.compat`.
In the future there might also be a `@sealed` decorator which would
cover some more cases.
This makes mypy raise an error whenever it detects code which is
statically unreachable, e.g.
x: int
if isinstance(x, str):
... # Statement is unreachable [unreachable]
This is really neat and finds quite a few logic and typing bugs.
Sometimes the code is intentionally unreachable in terms of types, e.g.
raising TypeError when a function is given an argument with a wrong
type. In these cases a `type: ignore[unreachable]` is needed, but I
think it's a nice code hint.
This prevents referring to a generic type without filling in its generic
type parameters.
The FixtureDef typing might need some more refining in the future.
Mypy currently is unable to handle assigning attributes on function:
https://github.com/python/mypy/issues/2087.
pytest uses this for the outcome exceptions -- `pytest.fail.Exception`,
`pytest.exit.Exception` etc, and this is the canonical name by which they
are referred.
Initially we started working around this with type: ignores, and later
by switching e.g. `pytest.fail.Exception` with the direct exception
`Failed`. But this causes a lot of churn and is not as nice. And I also
found that some code relies on it, in skipping.py:
def pytest_configure(config):
if config.option.runxfail:
# yay a hack
import pytest
old = pytest.xfail
config._cleanup.append(lambda: setattr(pytest, "xfail", old))
def nop(*args, **kwargs):
pass
nop.Exception = xfail.Exception
setattr(pytest, "xfail", nop)
...
So it seems better to support it. Use a hack to make it work. The rest
of the commit rolls back all of the workarounds we added up to now.
`pytest.raises.Exception` also exists, but it's not used much so I kept
it as-is for now.
Hopefully in the future mypy supports this and this ugliness can be
removed.
* Turn ReprTraceback into attrs class
* Use attr.asdict with serialize_repr_{crash,traceback}
* Turn ReprFileLocation into attrs class, convert py.path.local
Tracebacks coming from remote processes crated by the multiprocess module
will contain "RemoteTracebacks" which don't have a 'reprcrash' attribute
