[dependabot]

Bumps pytest from 8.3.4 to 8.4.1.

Release notes

Sourced from pytest's releases.

8.4.1

pytest 8.4.1 (2025-06-17)

Bug fixes

• #13461: Corrected _pytest.terminal.TerminalReporter.isatty to support being called as a method. Before it was just a boolean which could break correct code when using -o log_cli=true).

• #13477: Reintroduced pytest.PytestReturnNotNoneWarning{.interpreted-text role="class"} which was removed by accident in pytest [8.4]{.title-ref}.

  This warning is raised when a test functions returns a value other than None, which is often a mistake made by beginners.

  See return-not-none{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more information.

• #13497: Fixed compatibility with Twisted 25+.

Improved documentation

• #13492: Fixed outdated warning about faulthandler not working on Windows.

8.4.0

pytest 8.4.0 (2025-06-02)

Removals and backward incompatible breaking changes

• #11372: Async tests will now fail, instead of warning+skipping, if you don't have any suitable plugin installed.

• #12346: Tests will now fail, instead of raising a warning, if they return any value other than None.

• #12874: We dropped support for Python 3.8 following its end of life (2024-10-07).

• #12960: Test functions containing a yield now cause an explicit error. They have not been run since pytest 4.0, and were previously marked as an expected failure and deprecation warning.

  See the docs <yield tests deprecated>{.interpreted-text role="ref"} for more information.

Deprecations (removal in next major release)

• #10839: Requesting an asynchronous fixture without a [pytest_fixture_setup]{.title-ref} hook that resolves it will now give a DeprecationWarning. This most commonly happens if a sync test requests an async fixture. This should have no effect on a majority of users with async tests or fixtures using async pytest plugins, but may affect non-standard hook setups or autouse=True. For guidance on how to work around this warning see sync-test-async-fixture{.interpreted-text role="ref"}.

New features

• #11538: Added pytest.RaisesGroup{.interpreted-text role="class"} as an equivalent to pytest.raises{.interpreted-text role="func"} for expecting ExceptionGroup{.interpreted-text role="exc"}. Also adds pytest.RaisesExc{.interpreted-text role="class"} which is now the logic behind pytest.raises{.interpreted-text role="func"} and used as parameter to pytest.RaisesGroup{.interpreted-text role="class"}. RaisesGroup includes the ability to specify multiple different expected exceptions, the structure of nested exception groups, and flags for emulating except* <except_star>{.interpreted-text role="ref"}. See assert-matching-exception-groups{.interpreted-text role="ref"} and docstrings for more information.

• #12081: Added capteesys{.interpreted-text role="fixture"} to capture AND pass output to next handler set by --capture=.

• #12504: pytest.mark.xfail{.interpreted-text role="func"} now accepts pytest.RaisesGroup{.interpreted-text role="class"} for the raises parameter when you expect an exception group. You can also pass a pytest.RaisesExc{.interpreted-text role="class"} if you e.g. want to make use of the check parameter.

• #12713: New [--force-short-summary]{.title-ref} option to force condensed summary output regardless of verbosity level.
