+===========================================================================
+
+pytest-2.3.3 is a another stabilization release of the py.test tool
+which offers uebersimple assertions, scalable fixture mechanisms
+and deep customization for testing with Python. Particularly,
+this release provides:
+
+- integration fixes and improvements related to flask, numpy, nose,
+ unittest, mock
+
+- makes pytest work on py24 again (yes, people sometimes still need to use it)
+
+- show ``*,**`` args in pytest tracebacks
+
+Thanks to Manuel Jacob, Thomas Waldmann, Ronny Pfannschmidt, Pavel Repin
+and Andreas Taumoefolau for providing patches and all for the issues.
+
+See
+
+ http://pytest.org/
+
+for general information. To install or upgrade pytest:
+
+ pip install -U pytest # or
+ easy_install -U pytest
+
+best,

+Changes between 2.3.2 and 2.3.3
+-----------------------------------
+
+- fix issue214 - parse modules that contain special objects like e. g.
+ flask's request object which blows up on getattr access if no request
+ is active. thanks Thomas Waldmann.
+
+- fix issue213 - allow to parametrize with values like numpy arrays that
+ do not support an __eq__ operator
+
+- fix issue215 - split test_python.org into multiple files
+
+- fix issue148 - @unittest.skip on classes is now recognized and avoids
+ calling setUpClass/tearDownClass, thanks Pavel Repin
+
+- fix issue209 - reintroduce python2.4 support by depending on newer
+ pylib which re-introduced statement-finding for pre-AST interpreters
+
+- nose support: only call setup if its a callable, thanks Andrew
+ Taumoefolau
+
+- fix issue219 - add py2.4-3.3 classifiers to TROVE list
+
+- in tracebacks *,** arg values are now shown next to normal arguments
+ (thanks Manuel Jacob)
+
+- fix issue217 - support mock.patch with pytest's fixtures - note that
+ you need either mock-1.0.1 or the python3.3 builtin unittest.mock.
+
+- fix issue127 - improve documentation for pytest_addoption() and
+ add a ``config.getoption(name)`` helper function for consistency.
