-Pytest 3.6.3 (2018-07-04)
+pytest 3.7.2 (2018-08-16)
+=========================
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#3671 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3671>`_: Fix ``filterwarnings`` not being registered as a builtin mark.
+
+
+- `#3768 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3768>`_, `#3789 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3789>`_: Fix test collection from packages mixed with normal directories.
+
+
+- `#3771 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3771>`_: Fix infinite recursion during collection if a ``pytest_ignore_collect`` hook returns ``False`` instead of ``None``.
+
+
+- `#3774 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3774>`_: Fix bug where decorated fixtures would lose functionality (for example ``@mock.patch``).
+
+
+- `#3775 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3775>`_: Fix bug where importing modules or other objects with prefix ``pytest_`` prefix would raise a ``PluginValidationError``.
+
+
+- `#3788 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3788>`_: Fix ``AttributeError`` during teardown of ``TestCase`` subclasses which raise an exception during ``__init__``.
+
+
+- `#3804 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3804>`_: Fix traceback reporting for exceptions with ``__cause__`` cycles.
+
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- `#3746 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3746>`_: Add documentation for ``metafunc.config`` that had been mistakenly hidden.
+
+
+pytest 3.7.1 (2018-08-02)
+=========================
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#3473 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3473>`_: Raise immediately if ``approx()`` is given an expected value of a type it doesn't understand (e.g. strings, nested dicts, etc.).
+
+
+- `#3712 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3712>`_: Correctly represent the dimensions of an numpy array when calling ``repr()`` on ``approx()``.
+
+- `#3742 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3742>`_: Fix incompatibility with third party plugins during collection, which produced the error ``object has no attribute '_collectfile'``.
+
+- `#3745 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3745>`_: Display the absolute path if ``cache_dir`` is not relative to the ``rootdir`` instead of failing.
+
+
+- `#3747 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3747>`_: Fix compatibility problem with plugins and the warning code issued by fixture functions when they are called directly.
+
+
+- `#3748 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3748>`_: Fix infinite recursion in ``pytest.approx`` with arrays in ``numpy<1.13``.
+
+
+- `#3757 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3757>`_: Pin pathlib2 to ``>=2.2.0`` as we require ``__fspath__`` support.
+
+
+- `#3763 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3763>`_: Fix ``TypeError`` when the assertion message is ``bytes`` in python 3.
+
+
+pytest 3.7.0 (2018-07-30)
+=========================
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+-------------------------
+
+- `#2639 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2639>`_: ``pytest_namespace`` has been deprecated.
+
+  See the documentation for ``pytest_namespace`` hook for suggestions on how to deal
+  with this in plugins which use this functionality.
+
+
+- `#3661 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3661>`_: Calling a fixture function directly, as opposed to request them in a test function, now issues a ``RemovedInPytest4Warning``. It will be changed into an error in pytest ``4.0``.
+
+  This is a great source of confusion to new users, which will often call the fixture functions and request them from test functions interchangeably, which breaks the fixture resolution model.
+
+
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#2283 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2283>`_: New ``package`` fixture scope: fixtures are finalized when the last test of a *package* finishes. This feature is considered **experimental**, so use it sparingly.
+
+
+- `#3576 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3576>`_: ``Node.add_marker`` now supports an ``append=True/False`` parameter to determine whether the mark comes last (default) or first.
+
+
+- `#3579 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3579>`_: Fixture ``caplog`` now has a ``messages`` property, providing convenient access to the format-interpolated log messages without the extra data provided by the formatter/handler.
+
+
+- `#3610 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3610>`_: New ``--trace`` option to enter the debugger at the start of a test.
+
+
+- `#3623 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3623>`_: Introduce ``pytester.copy_example`` as helper to do acceptance tests against examples from the project.
+
+
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#2220 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2220>`_: Fix a bug where fixtures overridden by direct parameters (for example parametrization) were being instantiated even if they were not being used by a test.
+
+
+- `#3695 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3695>`_: Fix ``ApproxNumpy`` initialisation argument mixup, ``abs`` and ``rel`` tolerances were flipped causing strange comparsion results.
+  Add tests to check ``abs`` and ``rel`` tolerances for ``np.array`` and test for expecting ``nan`` with ``np.array()``
+
+
+- `#980 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/980>`_: Fix truncated locals output in verbose mode.
+
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- `#3295 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3295>`_: Correct the usage documentation of ``--last-failed-no-failures`` by adding the missing ``--last-failed`` argument in the presented examples, because they are misleading and lead to think that the missing argument is not needed.
+
+
+
+Trivial/Internal Changes
+------------------------
+
+- `#3519 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3519>`_: Now a ``README.md`` file is created in ``.pytest_cache`` to make it clear why the directory exists.
+
+
+pytest 3.6.4 (2018-07-28)
+=========================
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- Invoke pytest using ``-mpytest`` so ``sys.path`` does not get polluted by packages installed in ``site-packages``. (`#742 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/742>`_)
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- Use ``smtp_connection`` instead of ``smtp`` in fixtures documentation to avoid possible confusion. (`#3592 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3592>`_)
+
+
+Trivial/Internal Changes
+------------------------
+
+- Remove obsolete ``__future__`` imports. (`#2319 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2319>`_)
+
+- Add CITATION to provide information on how to formally cite pytest. (`#3402 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3402>`_)
+
+- Replace broken type annotations with type comments. (`#3635 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3635>`_)
+
+- Pin ``pluggy`` to ``<0.8``. (`#3727 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3727>`_)

As a result, markers would unintentionally be passed along class hierarchies in surprising ways. Further, the API for retrieving them was inconsistent, as markers from parameterization would be stored differently than markers applied using the ``@pytest.mark`` decorator and markers added via ``node.add_marker``.
 
 This state of things made it technically next to impossible to use data from markers correctly without having a deep understanding of the internals, leading to subtle and hard to understand bugs in more advanced usages.
 
 Depending on how a marker got declared/changed one would get either a ``MarkerInfo`` which might contain markers from sibling classes,
 ``MarkDecorators`` when marks came from parameterization or from a ``node.add_marker`` call, discarding prior marks. Also ``MarkerInfo`` acts like a single mark, when it in fact represents a merged view on multiple marks with the same name.
 
-On top of that markers where not accessible the same way for modules, classes, and functions/methods,
-in fact, markers where only accessible in functions, even if they where declared on classes/modules.
+On top of that markers were not accessible the same way for modules, classes, and functions/methods.
+In fact, markers were only accessible in functions, even if they were declared on classes/modules.
 
 A new API to access markers has been introduced in pytest 3.6 in order to solve the problems with the initial design, providing :func:`_pytest.nodes.Node.iter_markers` method to iterate over markers in a consistent manner and reworking the internals, which solved great deal of problems with the initial design.

+Example test scripts
+=====================
+
+
+The files in this folder are not direct tests, but rather example test suites that demonstrate certain issues/behaviours.
+
+In the future we will move part of the content of the acceptance tests here in order to have directly testable code instead of writing out things and then running them in nested pytest sessions/subprocesses.
+
