Release Notes

nedbat/coveragepy (coverage)

v7.9.2

Compare Source

  • Fix: complex conditionals within a line might cause a KeyError when using
    sys.monitoring, as reported in issue 1991_. This is now fixed.

  • Fix: we can now measure coverage for code in Python archive (.par) files.
    Thanks, Itamer Oren <pull 1984_>_.

.. _changes_7-9-1:

v7.9.1

Compare Source

  • The "no-ctracer" warning is not issued for Python pre-release versions.
    Coverage doesn't ship compiled wheels for those versions, so this was far too
    noisy.

  • On Python 3.14+, the "sysmon" core is now the default if it's supported for
    your configuration. Plugins and dynamic contexts are still not supported
    with it.

.. _changes_7-9-0:

v7.9.0

Compare Source

  • Added a [run] core configuration setting to specify the measurement core,
    which was previously only available through the COVERAGE_CORE environment
    variable. Finishes issue 1746_.

  • Fixed incorrect rendering of f-strings with doubled braces, closing issue 1980_.

  • If the C tracer core can't be imported, a warning ("no-ctracer") is issued
    with the reason.

  • The C tracer core extension module now conforms to PEP 489, closing issue 1977. Thanks, Adam Turner <pull 1978_>_.

  • Fixed a "ValueError: min() arg is an empty sequence" error caused by strange
    empty modules, found by oss-fuzz_.

  • Wheels are provided for Windows ARM64 on Python 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13.

v7.8.1

Compare Source

  • A number of EncodingWarnings were fixed that could appear if you've enabled
    PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING, fixing issue 1966. Thanks, Henry Schreiner <pull 1967_>.

  • Fixed a race condition when using sys.monitoring with free-threading Python,
    closing issue 1970_.

v7.8.0

Compare Source

  • Added a new source_dirs setting for symmetry with the existing
    source_pkgs setting. It's preferable to the existing source setting,
    because you'll get a clear error when directories don't exist. Fixes issue 1942. Thanks, Jeremy Fleischman <pull 1943_>.

  • Fix: the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment variable new in Python 3.11 is properly
    supported, closing issue 1696. Thanks, Philipp A. <pull 1700_>. This
    works properly except for a detail when using the coverage command on
    Windows. There you can use python -m coverage instead if you need exact
    emulation.

v7.7.1

  • A few small tweaks to the sys.monitoring support for Python 3.14. Please
    test!

.. _changes_7-7-0:

v7.7.0

Compare Source

  • The Coverage object has a new method, :meth:.Coverage.branch_stats for
    getting simple branch information for a module. Closes issue 1888_.

  • The :class:Coverage constructor<.Coverage> now has a plugins parameter
    for passing in plugin objects directly, thanks to Alex Gaynor <pull 1919_>_.

  • Many constant tests in if statements are now recognized as being optimized
    away. For example, previously if 13: would have been considered a branch
    with one path not taken. Now it is understood as always true and no coverage
    is missing.

  • The experimental sys.monitoring support now works for branch coverage if you
    are using Python 3.14.0 alpha 6 or newer. This should reduce the overhead
    coverage.py imposes on your test suite. Set the environment variable
    COVERAGE_CORE=sysmon to try it out.

  • Confirmed support for PyPy 3.11. Thanks Michał Górny.

  • Fix: some aarch64 distributions were missing (issue 1927_). These are now
    building reliably.

v7.6.11

Compare Source

  • Fix: a memory leak in CTracer has been fixed. The details are in issue 1924_ and pytest-dev 676_. This should reduce the memory footprint for
    everyone even if it hadn't caused a problem before.

  • We now ship a py3-none-any.whl wheel file. Thanks, Russell Keith-Magee <pull 1914_>_.

v7.6.10

Compare Source

  • Fix: some descriptions of missing branches in HTML and LCOV reports were
    incorrect when multi-line statements were involved (issue 1874_ and issue 1875_). These are now fixed.

  • Fix: Python 3.14 defers evaluation of annotations <pep649_>_ by moving them
    into separate code objects. That code is rarely executed, so coverage.py
    would mark them as missing, as reported in issue 1908_. Now they are
    ignored by coverage automatically.

  • Fixed an obscure and mysterious problem on PyPy 3.10 seemingly involving
    mocks, imports, and trace functions: issue 1902_. To be honest, I don't
    understand the problem or the solution, but git bisect helped find it,
    and now it's fixed.

  • Docs: re-wrote the :ref:subprocess page to put multiprocessing first and to
    highlight the correct use of :class:multiprocessing.Pool <python:multiprocessing.pool.Pool>.
