+===========================================================================
+
+pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 1100 tests
+against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.
+This release is drop-in compatible to 2.5.2 and 2.6.X.
+See below for the changes and see docs at:
+
+ http://pytest.org
+
+As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::
+
+ pip install -U pytest

+Changes 2.6.3
+======================
+
+- fix issue575: xunit-xml was reporting collection errors as failures
+ instead of errors, thanks Oleg Sinyavskiy.
+
+- fix issue582: fix setuptools example, thanks Laszlo Papp and Ronny
+ Pfannschmidt.
+
+- Fix infinite recursion bug when pickling capture.EncodedFile, thanks
+ Uwe Schmitt.
+
+- fix issue589: fix bad interaction with numpy and others when showing
+ exceptions. Check for precise "maximum recursion depth exceed" exception
+ instead of presuming any RuntimeError is that one (implemented in py
+ dep). Thanks Charles Cloud for analysing the issue.
+
+- fix conftest related fixture visibility issue: when running with a
+ CWD outside a test package pytest would get fixture discovery wrong.
+ Thanks to Wolfgang Schnerring for figuring out a reproducable example.
+
+- Introduce pytest_enter_pdb hook (needed e.g. by pytest_timeout to cancel the
+ timeout when interactively entering pdb). Thanks Wolfgang Schnerring.
+
+- check xfail/skip also with non-python function test items. Thanks
+ Floris Bruynooghe.
