7.6.4

Version 7.6.4 — 2024-10-20

• fix: multi-line with statements could cause contained branches to be incorrectly marked as missing (issue 1880). This is now fixed.

7.6.3

Version 7.6.3 — 2024-10-13

• Fix: nested context managers could incorrectly be analyzed to flag a missing branch on the last context manager, as described in issue 1876. This is now fixed.
• Fix: the missing branch message about not exiting a module had an extra “didn’t,” as described in issue 1873. This is now fixed.

7.6.2

Version 7.6.2 — 2024-10-09

• Dropped support for Python 3.8 and PyPy 3.8.
• Fix: a final wildcard match/case clause assigning to a name (case _ as value) was incorrectly marked as a missing branch. This is now fixed, closing issue 1860.
• Fewer things are considered branches now. Lambdas, comprehensions, and generator expressions are no longer marked as missing branches if they don’t complete execution. Closes issue 1852.
• Fix: the HTML report didn’t properly show multi-line f-strings that end with a backslash continuation. This is now fixed, closing issue 1836, thanks to LiuYinCarl and Marco Ricci.
• Fix: the LCOV report now has correct line numbers (fixing issue 1846) and better branch descriptions for BRDA records (fixing issue 1850). There are other changes to lcov also, including a new configuration option line_checksums to control whether line checksums are included in the lcov report. The default is false. To keep checksums set it to true. All this work is thanks to Zack Weinberg (pull 1849 and pull 1851).
• Fixed the docs for multi-line regex exclusions, closing issue 1863.
• Fixed a potential crash in the C tracer, closing issue 1835, thanks to Jan Kühle.

7.6.1

Version 7.6.1 — 2024-08-04

• Fix: coverage used to fail when measuring code using https://docs.python.org/3/library/runpy.html#runpy.run_path with a https://docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html#pathlib.Path argument. This is now fixed, thanks to Ask Hjorth Larsen.
• Fix: backslashes preceding a multi-line backslashed string could confuse the HTML report. This is now fixed, thanks to LiuYinCarl.
• Now we publish wheels for Python 3.13, both regular and free-threaded.

7.6.0

Version 7.6.0 — 2024-07-11

• Exclusion patterns can now be multi-line, thanks to Daniel Diniz. This enables many interesting exclusion use-cases, including those requested in issues 118 (entire files), 996 (multiple lines only when appearing together), 1741 (remainder of a function), and 1803 (arbitrary sequence of marked lines). See the Multi-line exclusion regexes section of the docs for more details and examples.
• The JSON report now includes per-function and per-class coverage information. Thanks to Daniel Diniz for getting the work started. This closes issue 1793 and issue 1532.
• Fixed an incorrect calculation of “(no class)” lines in the HTML classes report.
• Python 3.13.0b3 is supported.

7.5.4

Version 7.5.4 — 2024-06-22

• If you attempt to combine statement coverage data with branch coverage data, coverage.py used to fail with the message “Can’t combine arc data with line data” or its reverse, “Can’t combine line data with arc data.” These messages used internal terminology, making it hard for people to understand the problem. They are now changed to mention “branch coverage data” and “statement coverage data.”
• Fixed a minor branch coverage problem with wildcard match/case cases using names or guard clauses.
• Started testing on 3.13 free-threading (nogil) builds of Python. I’m not claiming full support yet. Closes issue 1799.

7.5.3

Version 7.5.3 — 2024-05-28

• Performance improvements for combining data files, especially when measuring line coverage. A few different quadratic behaviors were eliminated. In one extreme case of combining 700+ data files, the time dropped from more than three hours to seven minutes. Thanks for Kraken Tech for funding the fix.
• Performance improvements for generating HTML reports, with a side benefit of reducing memory use, closing issue 1791. Thanks to Daniel Diniz for helping to diagnose the problem.

7.5.2

Version 7.5.2 — 2024-05-24

• Fix: nested matches of exclude patterns could exclude too much code, as reported in issue 1779. This is now fixed.
• Changed: previously, coverage.py would consider a module docstring to be an executable statement if it appeared after line 1 in the file, but not executable if it was the first line. Now module docstrings are never counted as executable statements. This can change coverage.py’s count of the number of statements in a file, which can slightly change the coverage percentage reported.
• In the HTML report, the filter term and “hide covered” checkbox settings are remembered between viewings, thanks to Daniel Diniz.
• Python 3.13.0b1 is supported.
• Fix: parsing error handling is improved to ensure bizarre source files are handled gracefully, and to unblock oss-fuzz fuzzing, thanks to Liam DeVoe. Closes issue 1787.

7.5.1

Version 7.5.1 — 2024-05-04

• Fix: a pragma comment on the continuation lines of a multi-line statement now excludes the statement and its body, the same as if the pragma is on the first line. This closes issue 754. The fix was contributed by Daniel Diniz.
• Fix: very complex source files like this one could cause a maximum recursion error when creating an HTML report. This is now fixed, closing issue 1774.
• HTML report improvements:
  • Support files (JavaScript and CSS) referenced by the HTML report now have hashes added to their names to ensure updated files are used instead of stale cached copies.
  • Missing branch coverage explanations that said “the condition was never false” now read “the condition was always true” because it’s easier to understand.
  • Column sort order is remembered better as you move between the index pages, fixing issue 1766. Thanks, Daniel Diniz.

7.5.0

Version 7.5.0 — 2024-04-23

• Added initial support for function and class reporting in the HTML report. There are now three index pages which link to each other: files, functions, and classes. Other reports don’t yet have this information, but it will be added in the future where it makes sense. Feedback gladly accepted! Finishes issue 780.
• Other HTML report improvements:
  • There is now a “hide covered” checkbox to filter out 100% files, finishing issue 1384.
  • The index page is always sorted by one of its columns, with clearer indications of the sorting.
  • The “previous file” shortcut key didn’t work on the index page, but now it does, fixing issue 1765.
• The debug output showing which configuration files were tried now shows absolute paths to help diagnose problems where settings aren’t taking effect, and is renamed from “attempted_config_files” to the more logical “config_files_attempted.”
• Python 3.13.0a6 is supported.
