+pytest-2.6.0: shorter tracebacks, new warning system, test runner compat
+===========================================================================
+
+pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 1000 tests
+against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.
+
+The 2.6.0 release should be drop-in backward compatible to 2.5.2 and
+fixes a number of bugs and brings some new features, mainly:
+
+- shorter tracebacks by default: only the first (test function) entry
+  and the last (failure location) entry are shown, the ones between
+  only in "short" format.  Use ``--tb=long`` to get back the old
+  behaviour of showing "long" entries everywhere.
+
+- a new warning system which reports oddities during collection
+  and execution.  For example, ignoring collecting Test* classes with an
+  ``__init__`` now produces a warning.
+
+- various improvements to nose/mock/unittest integration
+
+Note also that 2.6.0 departs with the "zero reported bugs" policy
+because it has been too hard to keep up with it, unfortunately.
+Instead we are for now rather bound to work on "upvoted" issues in
+the https://bitbucket.org/pytest-dev/pytest/issues?status=new&status=open&sort=-votes
+issue tracker.
+
+See docs at:
+
+    http://pytest.org
+
+As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::
+
+    pip install -U pytest

+2.6.0
+-----------------------------------
+
+- fix issue537: Avoid importing old assertion reinterpretation code by default.
+  Thanks Benjamin Peterson.
+
+- fix issue364: shorten and enhance tracebacks representation by default.
+  The new "--tb=auto" option (default) will only display long tracebacks
+  for the first and last entry.  You can get the old behaviour of printing
+  all entries as long entries with "--tb=long".  Also short entries by
+  default are now printed very similarly to "--tb=native" ones.
+
+- fix issue514: teach assertion reinterpretation about private class attributes
+  Thanks Benjamin Peterson.
+
+- change -v output to include full node IDs of tests.  Users can copy
+  a node ID from a test run, including line number, and use it as a
+  positional argument in order to run only a single test.
+
+- fix issue 475: fail early and comprehensible if calling
+  pytest.raises with wrong exception type.
+
+- fix issue516: tell in getting-started about current dependencies.
+
+- cleanup setup.py a bit and specify supported versions. Thanks Jurko
+  Gospodnetic for the PR.
+
+- change XPASS colour to yellow rather then red when tests are run
+  with -v.
+
+- fix issue473: work around mock putting an unbound method into a class
+  dict when double-patching.
+
+- fix issue498: if a fixture finalizer fails, make sure that
+  the fixture is still invalidated.
+
+- fix issue453: the result of the pytest_assertrepr_compare hook now gets
+  it's newlines escaped so that format_exception does not blow up.
+
+- internal new warning system: pytest will now produce warnings when
+  it detects oddities in your test collection or execution.
+  Warnings are ultimately sent to a new pytest_logwarning hook which is
+  currently only implemented by the terminal plugin which displays
+  warnings in the summary line and shows more details when -rw (report on
+  warnings) is specified.
+
+- change skips into warnings for test classes with an __init__ and
+  callables in test modules which look like a test but are not functions.
+
+- fix issue436: improved finding of initial conftest files from command
+  line arguments by using the result of parse_known_args rather than
+  the previous flaky heuristics.  Thanks Marc Abramowitz for tests
+  and initial fixing approaches in this area.
+
+- fix issue #479: properly handle nose/unittest(2) SkipTest exceptions
+  during collection/loading of test modules.  Thanks to Marc Schlaich
+  for the complete PR.
+
+- fix issue490: include pytest_load_initial_conftests in documentation
+  and improve docstring.
+
+- fix issue472: clarify that ``pytest.config.getvalue()`` cannot work
+  if it's triggered ahead of command line parsing.
+
+- merge PR123: improved integration with mock.patch decorator on tests.
+
+- fix issue412: messing with stdout/stderr FD-level streams is now
+  captured without crashes.
+
+- fix issue483: trial/py33 works now properly.  Thanks Daniel Grana for PR.
+
+- improve example for pytest integration with "python setup.py test"
+  which now has a generic "-a" or "--pytest-args" option where you
+  can pass additional options as a quoted string.  Thanks Trevor Bekolay.
+
+- simplified internal capturing mechanism and made it more robust
+  against tests or setups changing FD1/FD2, also better integrated
+  now with pytest.pdb() in single tests.
+
+- improvements to pytest's own test-suite leakage detection, courtesy of PRs
+  from Marc Abramowitz
+
+- fix issue492: avoid leak in test_writeorg.  Thanks Marc Abramowitz.
+
+- fix issue493: don't run tests in doc directory with ``python setup.py test``
+  (use tox -e doctesting for that)
+
+- fix issue486: better reporting and handling of early conftest loading failures
+
+- some cleanup and simplification of internal conftest handling.
+
+- work a bit harder to break reference cycles when catching exceptions.
+  Thanks Jurko Gospodnetic.
+
+- fix issue443: fix skip examples to use proper comparison.  Thanks Alex
+  Groenholm.
+
+- support nose-style ``__test__`` attribute on modules, classes and
+  functions, including unittest-style Classes.  If set to False, the
+  test will not be collected.
+
+- fix issue512: show "<notset>" for arguments which might not be set
+  in monkeypatch plugin.  Improves output in documentation.
+
+- avoid importing "py.test" (an old alias module for "pytest")
