+
+pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 1000 tests
+against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.

+actively being worked on (and waiting for the bug reporter's input).
+We also have a new contribution guide thanks to Piotr Banaszkiewicz
+and others.
+
+See docs at:

+As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::
+
+ pip install -U pytest

+2.5.2
+-----------------------------------
+
+- fix issue409 -- better interoperate with cx_freeze by not
+ trying to import from collections.abc which causes problems
+ for py27/cx_freeze. Thanks Wolfgang L. for reporting and tracking it down.
+
+- fixed docs and code to use "pytest" instead of "py.test" almost everywhere.
+ Thanks Jurko Gospodnetic for the complete PR.
+
+- fix issue425: mention at end of "py.test -h" that --markers
+ and --fixtures work according to specified test path (or current dir)
+
+- fix issue413: exceptions with unicode attributes are now printed
+ correctly also on python2 and with pytest-xdist runs. (the fix
+ requires py-1.4.20)
+
+- copy, cleanup and integrate py.io capture
+ from pylib 1.4.20.dev2 (rev 13d9af95547e)
+
+- address issue416: clarify docs as to conftest.py loading semantics
+
+- fix issue429: comparing byte strings with non-ascii chars in assert
+ expressions now work better. Thanks Floris Bruynooghe.
+
+- make capfd/capsys.capture private, its unused and shouldnt be exposed
+
