Travis was not successfully installing numpy with python<=2.6,
python<=3.3, or PyPy. I decided that it didn't make sense to use numpy
for all the tests, so instead I made new testing environments
specifically for numpy.
- Avoid importing numpy unless necessary.
- Mention numpy arrays and dictionaries in the docs.
- Add numpy to the list of tox dependencies.
- Don't unnecessarily copy arrays or allocate empty space for them.
- Use code from compat.py rather than writing py2/3 versions of things
myself.
- Avoid reimplementing __repr__ for built-in types.
- Add an option to consider NaN == NaN, because sometimes people use NaN
to mean "missing data".
Because setuptools_scm already includes all version-controlled files
in an sdist, we don't need to maintain a MANIFEST.in file and anymore
See pytest-dev/pytest-xdist#161
- pytester was creating a 'pexpect' directory to serve as temporary dir, but due to the fact that
xdist adds the current directory to sys.path, that directory was being considered as candidate
for import as a package. The directory is empty and a warning was being raised about
it missing __init__ file, which is now turned into an error by our filterwarnings config
in pytest.ini.
- Decided to play it safe and ignore any warnings during `pytest.importorskip`.
- pytest-xdist and execnet raise two warnings which should be fixed upstream:
pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/133
due to a devpi bug, we always get a sdist install which in turn triggers
the pytest issue #2042 / #726
going for pyargs and a changed folder, it should no longer happen
(and will be tested firther after rebasing the release branch)
* Changed "index" to be more similar to the README (#1708).
* Fixes numerous issues like missing documents, syntax errors, etc (#1829, #432).
* Mention all docs in "contents.rst" so it's easier for users to locate (#1112).
* Add doc generation and checking to Travis and AppVeyor, to avoid re-introducing errors.
Fixes#432, Fixes#1112, Fixes#1708, Fixes#1829
cx_freeze doesn't seem to be very well supported in Python 3.5.
Using pyinstaller instead and rename environment to "freeze" which
is a more generic term for freezing python code into standalone
executables.
Fix#1769
