pytest-xdist 3.6.1 (2024-04-28)

Bug Fixes

• [#1071](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1071) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1071>_: Add backward compatibility for deadlock issue with the execnet new main_thread_only "execmodel" triggered when pytest-cov accesses rinfo.

pytest-xdist 3.6.0 (2024-04-19)

This release was YANKED due to a regression fixed in 3.6.1.

Features

• [#1027](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1027) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/pull/1027>_:pytest-xdist workers now always execute the tests in the main thread. Previously some tests might end up executing in a separate thread other than main in the workers, due to some internal execnet`` details. This can cause problems specially with async frameworks where the event loop is running in the ``main`` thread (for example #620 pytest-dev/pytest-xdist#620`__).

Bug Fixes

• [#1024](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1024) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1024>_: Added proper handling of shouldstop (such as set by --max-fail) and shouldfail conditions in workers. Previously, a worker might have continued executing further tests before the controller could terminate the session.

• [#1028](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1028) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1028>_: Fixed compatibility issue between looponfail and editable installs.

• [#620](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/620) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/620>_: Use the new main_thread_only execnet "execmodel" so that code which expects to only run in the main thread will now work as expected.

• [#937](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/937) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/937>_: Fixed a bug where plugin would raise an incompatibility error with --pdb despite using -n0.

Removals

• [#1053](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1053) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1053>_: Dropped support for Python 3.7.

• [#1057](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1057) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1057>_: pytest>=7.0.0 is now required.

  execnet>=2.1.0 is now required.

Trivial Changes

• [#1020](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1020) <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/1020>_: pytest-xdist's setup.py file is removed.

  If you relied on this file, e.g. to install pytest using setup.py install, please see Why you shouldn't invoke setup.py directly <https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/setup-py-deprecated.html#summary>_ for alternatives.
