+pytest-2.8.3: 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 2.8.2.
+
+See below for the changes and see docs at:
+
+    http://pytest.org
+
+As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::
+
+    pip install -U pytest
+
