+pytest-2.7.1: bug fixes
+=======================
+
+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 supposed to be drop-in compatible to 2.7.0.
+
+See below for the changes and see docs at:
+
+ http://pytest.org
+
+As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::
+
+ pip install -U pytest
+
+Thanks to all who contributed to this release, among them:
+
+ Bruno Oliveira
+ Holger Krekel
+ Ionel Maries Cristian
+ Floris Bruynooghe
+
+Happy testing,
+The py.test Development Team
+
+
+2.7.1 (compared to 2.7.0)
+-------------------------
+
+- fix issue731: do not get confused by the braces which may be present
+ and unbalanced in an object's repr while collapsing False
+ explanations. Thanks Carl Meyer for the report and test case.
+
+- fix issue553: properly handling inspect.getsourcelines failures in
+ FixtureLookupError which would lead to to an internal error,
+ obfuscating the original problem. Thanks talljosh for initial
+ diagnose/patch and Bruno Oliveira for final patch.
+
+- fix issue660: properly report scope-mismatch-access errors
+ independently from ordering of fixture arguments. Also
+ avoid the pytest internal traceback which does not provide
+ information to the user. Thanks Holger Krekel.
+
+- streamlined and documented release process. Also all versions
+ (in setup.py and documentation generation) are now read
+ from _pytest/__init__.py. Thanks Holger Krekel.
+
+- fixed docs to remove the notion that yield-fixtures are experimental.
+ They are here to stay :) Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
+
+- Support building wheels by using environment markers for the
+ requirements. Thanks Ionel Maries Cristian.
+
+- fixed regression to 2.6.4 which surfaced e.g. in lost stdout capture printing
+ when tests raised SystemExit. Thanks Holger Krekel.
+
+- reintroduced _pytest fixture of the pytester plugin which is used
+ at least by pytest-xdist.
