- Further bugfixes around self-referential datastructures and
compare
.
- Reinstate support for self-referential data structures in
compare
. The new implementation provides more clarity about what's going on and also ignores more immutable data types.

compare
. The functionality didn't work but did cause erroneous reported equality of values in dictionaries that were actually not equal.
- Refresh documentation.
- Add type annotations.
- Drop support for Python 2. The minimum supported Python version is now 3.6.
- Sybil 3 is now the minimum supported version if you use
~.sybil.FileParser

mock_date
,mock_datetime
andmock_time
.test_date<mock_date>
,test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
are still present as aliases but are now deprecated. - Add
TempDirectory.as_string
,TempDirectory.as_path
andTempDirectory.as_local
.TempDirectory.getpath
is now deprecated. TempDirectory
can now be used to wrap existing directories.- Fixed a bug where
OutputCapture.captured
returned bytes instead of a string withfd=True
. - The deprecated
strict
option toComparison
has been removed, use thepartial
option instead. - The deprecated
TempDirectory.check
,TempDirectory.check_dir
andTempDirectory.check_all
methods have been removed.
- Fix bug in detection of Mock backport.
- Ensure compatibility with Sybil 2 and Sybil 3 along with pytest 6 and pytest 7.
- Fix bug when using
compare
on two regular expressions that have very long patterns.
Thanks to Christoph Ludwig for the report.
- Fix bug that meant
LogCapture
didn't preserve or provide a clean testing environment for filters.
Thanks to Jesse Rittner for the fix.

SequenceComparison
could result in a failed match.
- Add simpler flag support to
StringComparison
. - Fix deprecation warning about invalid escape sequence.
Thanks to Wim Glenn for the deprecation warning fix.
- Simplify and clarify the documentation of timezones when using
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
. api
has been re-arranged to make it easier to browse.- The
strict
parameter toComparison
has been deprecated in favour ofpartial
. - Add
SequenceComparison
,Subset
andPermutation
objects. - Add
MappingComparison
objects. - Officially support Python 3.9.
- Add support to
LogCapture
for making sure log entries above a specified level have been checked.

.
Thanks to Grégoire Payen de La Garanderie for the fix.
- Fix bugs in comparison of
~unittest.mock.call
objects where therepr
of the~unittest.mock.call
arguments were the same even when their attributes were not.
- Add support for non-deterministic logging order when using
twisted.LogCapture
.
- Fix for using
compare
to compare two-element~unittest.mock.call
objects.
Thanks to Daniel Fortunov for the fix.
- Allow any attributes that need to be ignored to be specified directly when calling
~testfixtures.comparison.compare_object
. This is handy when writing comparers forcompare
.
- Fix a bug that occured when using
compare
to compare a string with a slotted object that had the samerepr
as the string.
- Add support for
universal_newlines
,text
,encoding
anderrors
topopen.MockPopen
, but only for Python 3.
decimal.Decimal
now has better representation whencompare
displays a failed comparison, particularly on Python 2.- Add support to
compare
for explicitly naming objects to be compared asx
andy
. This allows symmetry with thex_label
andy_label
parameters that are now documented. - Restore ability for
Comparison
to compare properties and methods, although these uses are not recommended.
Thanks to Daniel Fortunov for all of the above.
- Fix bug where new-style classes had their attributes checked with
compare
even when they were of different types.
- Fix bugs in
compare
when comparing objects which have both__slots__
and a__dict__
.
- Fix edge case where string interning made dictionary comparison output much less useful.
- Better feedback where objects do not
compare
equal but do have the same representation.
- Fix deprecation warning relating to
getargspec
. - Improve
mocking <mocking>
docs. - Added
strip_whitespace
option toOutputCapture
. - When
separate
is used withOutputCapture
, differences instdout
andstderr
are now given in the sameAssertionError

relating tocollections.abc
on Python 3.7.
Thanks to Tom Hendrikx for the fix.
- Add
twisted.LogCapture.raise_logged_failure
debugging helper.
popen.MockPopen.set_command
is now symmetrical withpopen.MockPopen
process instantiation in that both can be called with either lists or strings, in the same way assubprocess.Popen
.
- Fixed bugs where using
not_there
to ensure a key or attribute was not there but would be set by a test would result in the test attribute or key being left behind. - Add support for comparing
~functools.partial
instances and fix comparison of functions and other objects wherevars()
returns an emptydict
.
- Add the ability to ignore attributes of particular object types when using
compare
.
- Fix bug when
compare
was used with objects that had__slots__
inherited from a base class but where their__slots__
was an empty sequence.
- Fix bug when
compare
was used with objects that had__slots__
inherited from a base class.
- Experimental support for making assertions about events logged with Twisted's logging framework.

unittest.mock
attestfixtures.mock
, including an important bug fix for~unittest.mock.call
objects. - Better feedback when
~unittest.mock.call
comparisons fail when usingcompare
. - A re-working of
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
to enable it to handle multiple processes being active at the same time. - Fixes to
datetime
documentation.
Thanks to Augusto Wagner Andreoli for his work on the datetime
documentation.
- Allow the behaviour specified with
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen.set_command
to be a callable meaning that mock behaviour can now be dynamic based on the command executed and whatever was sent tostdin
. - Make
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
more accurately reflectsubprocess.Popen
on Python 3 by addingtimeout
parameters to~testfixtures.popen.MockPopenInstance.wait
and~testfixtures.popen.MockPopenInstance.communicate
along with some other smaller changes.
Thanks to Tim Davies for his work on ~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
.
- Better rendering of differences between
bytes
when usingcompare
on Python 3.
- Support filtering for specific warnings with
ShouldWarn
.
- Fix nasty bug where objects that had neither
__dict__
nor__slots__
would always be considered equal bycompare
.
- Fix a bug when comparing equal
set
instances usingcompare
whenstrict==True
.
compare
will now handle objects that do not natively support equality or inequality and will treat these objects as equal if they are of the same type and have the same attributes as found usingvars
or__slots__
. This is a change in behaviour which, while it could conceivably cause tests that are currently failing to pass, should not cause any currently passing tests to start failing.- Add support for writing to the
stdin
of~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
instances. - The default behaviour of
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
can now be controlled by providing a callable. LogCapture.actual
is now part of the documented public interface.- Add
LogCapture.check_present
to help with assertions about a sub-set of messages logged along with those that are logged in a non-deterministic order. Comparison
now supports objects with__slots__
.- Added
ShouldAssert
as a simpler tool for testing test helpers. - Changed the internals of the various decorators testfixtures provides such that they can be used in conjunction with
unittest.mock.patch
on the same test method or function. - Changed the internals of
ShouldRaise
andComparison
to make use ofcompare
and so provide nested comparisons with better feedback. This finally allowsShouldRaise
to deal with Django's~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError
. - Added handling of self-referential structures to
compare
by treating all but the first occurence as equal. Another change needed to support Django's insane~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError
.
Thanks to Hamish Downer and Tim Davies for their work on ~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
.
Thanks to Wim Glenn and Daniel Fortunov for their help reviewing some of the more major changes.
- Add explicit support for
~unittest.mock.Mock
tocompare
.
- Fix missing support for the start_new_session parameter to
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
.
- Add pytest traceback hiding for
TempDirectory.compare
. - Add warnings that
log_capture
,tempdir
andreplace
are not currently compatible with pytest's fixtures mechanism. - Better support for
stdout
orstderr
not being set toPIPE
when using~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
. - Add support to
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
for usingsubprocess.Popen
as a context manager in Python 3. - Add support to
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
forstderr=STDOUT
.
Thanks to Tim Davies for his work on ~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
.
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
now accept a~datetime.datetime
instance during instantiation to set the initial value.test_date <mock_date>
now accepts a~datetime.date
instance during instantiation to set the initial value.- Relax the restriction on adding, setting or instantiating
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
with tzinfo such that if the tzinfo matches the one configured, then it's okay to add. This means that you can now instantiate atest_datetime <mock_datetime>
with an existing~datetime.datetime
instance that has tzinfo set. testfixtures.django.compare_model
now ignoresmany to many <django.db.models.ManyToManyField>
fields rather than blowing up on them.- Drop official support for Python 3.4, although things should continue to work.
- Fix support for Django 1.9 in
testfixtures.django.compare_model
.
- Added support for including non-edit able fields to the
comparer <testfixtures.django.compare_model>
used bycompare
when comparingdjango <django>
~django.db.models.Model
instances.
Move from nose__ to pytest__ for running tests.
Switch from manuel__ to sybil__ for checking examples in documentation. This introduces a backwards incompatible change in that
~testfixtures.sybil.FileParser
replaces the Manuel plugin that is no longer included.- Add a 'tick' method to
test_datetime <testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.tick>
,test_date <testfixtures.datetime.MockDate.tick>
andtest_time <testfixtures.datetime.MockTime.tick>
, to advance the returned point in time, which is particularly helpful whendelta
is set to zero.
- Fix build environment bug in
.travis.yml
that caused bad tarballs.
- New release as it looks like Travis mis-built the 4.14.1 tarball.
- Fix mis-merge.

django <django>
~django.db.models.Model
instances.
compare
now correctly compares nested empty dictionaries when usingignore_eq=True
.
Keep the Reproducible Builds__ guys happy.
compare
now better handles equality comparison withignore_eq=True
when either of the objects being compared cannot be hashed.
- Fixed a bug where a
LogCapture
wouldn't be cleared when used vialog_capture
on a base class and sub class execute the same test.
Thanks to "mlabonte" for the bug report.
- When
ignore_eq
is used withcompare
, fall back to comparing by hash if not type-specific comparer can be found.
- Add support to
compare
for ignoring broken__eq__
implementations.
- Add support for specifying a callable to extract rows from log records when using
LogCapture
. - Add support for recursive comparison of log messages with
LogCapture
.
- Allow the attributes returned in
LogCapture.actual
rows to be specified. - Allow a default to be specified for encoding in
TempDirectory.read
andTempDirectory.write
.
- Better docs for
TempDirectory.compare
. - Remove the need for expected paths supplied to
TempDirectory.compare
to be in sorted order. - Document a good way of restoring
stdout
when in a debugger. - Fix handling of trailing slashes in
TempDirectory.compare
.
Thanks to Maximilian Albert for the TempDirectory.compare
docs.
- Fixed examples in documentation broken in 4.5.1.
- Add
RangeComparison
for comparing against values that fall in a range. - Add
~popen.MockPopen.set_default
to~popen.MockPopen
.
Thanks to Asaf Peleg for the RangeComparison
implementation.
- Fix for use with PyPy, broken since 4.8.0.
Thanks to Nicola Iarocci for the pull request to fix.
- Added the suffix parameter to
compare
to allow failure messages to include some additional context. - Update package metadata to indicate Python 3.5 compatibility.
Thanks for Felix Yan for the metadata patch.
Thanks to Wim Glenn for the suffix patch.
- Introduce a new
Replace
context manager and makeReplacer
callable. This gives more succinct and easy to read mocking code. - Add
ShouldWarn
andShouldNotWarn
context managers.
- Add the ability to pass
raises=False
tocompare
to just get the resulting message back rather than having an exception raised.
- Fix a bug that mean symlinked directories would never show up when using
TempDirectory.compare
and friends. - Add the
followlinks
parameter toTempDirectory.compare
to indicate that symlinked or hard linked directories should be recursed into when usingrecursive=True
.
- Switch from
cStringIO
toStringIO
inOutputCapture
to better handle unicode being written to stdout or stderr.
Thanks to "tell-k" for the patch.
LogCapture
,OutputCapture
andTempDirectory
now explicitly show what is expected versus actual when reporting differences.
Thanks to Daniel Fortunov for the pull request.

with a cleaner, more explicit API that allows comparison of only the files in a temporary directory. - Deprecate
TempDirectory.check
,TempDirectory.check_dir
andTempDirectory.check_all
- Relax absolute-path rules so that if it's inside the
TempDirectory
, it's allowed. - Allow
OutputCapture
to separately check output tostdout
andstderr
.
- Add
~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
, a mock helpful when testing code that usessubprocess.Popen
. ShouldRaise
now subclassesobject
, so that subclasses of it may usesuper()
.- Drop official support for Python 3.2.
Thanks to BATS Global Markets for donating the code for ~testfixtures.popen.MockPopen
.
- Clarify documentation for
name
parameter toLogCapture
. ShouldRaise
now shows different output when two exceptions have the same representation but still differ.- Fix bug that could result in a
dict
comparing equal to alist
.
Thanks to Daniel Fortunov for the documentation clarification.
- Fix bug that prevented logger propagation to be controlled by the
log_capture
decorator.
Thanks to John Kristensen for the fix.
- Fix
compare
bug whendict
instances withtuple
keys were not equal. - Allow logger propagation to be controlled by
LogCapture
. - Enabled disabled loggers if a
LogCapture
is attached to them.
Thanks to Daniel Fortunov for the compare
fix.
- Fix "maximum recursion depth exceeded" when comparing a string with bytes that did not contain the same character.
- Fix bugs when string compared equal and options to
compare
were used. - Fix bug when strictly comparing two nested structures containing identical objects.
- Moved from buildout to virtualenv for development.
- The
identity
singleton is no longer needed and has been removed. compare
will now work recursively on data structures for which it has registered comparers, giving more detailed feedback on nested data structures. Strict comparison will also be applied recursively.- Re-work the interfaces for using custom comparers with
compare
. - Better feedback when comparing
collections.namedtuple
instances. - Official support for Python 3.4.
Thanks to Yevgen Kovalienia for the typo fix in datetime
.
- Added
RoundComparison
helper for comparing numerics to a specific precision. - Added
unless
parameter toShouldRaise
to cover some very specific edge cases. - Fix missing imports that showed up
TempDirectory
had to do the "convoluted folder delete" dance on Windows.
Thanks to Jon Thompson for the RoundComparison
implementation.
Thanks to Matthias Lehmann for the import error reports.
- Document
ShouldRaise.raised
and make it part of the official API. - Fix rare failures when cleaning up
TempDirectory
instances on Windows.
- Some documentation tweaks and clarifications.
- Fixed a bug which masked exceptions when using
compare
with a broken generator. - Fixed a bug when comparing a generator with a non-generator.
- Ensure
LogCapture
cleans up global state it may effect. - Fixed replacement of static methods using a
Replacer
.
- Added compatibility with Python 3.2 and 3.3.
- Dropped compatibility with Python 2.5.
Removed support for the following obscure uses of
should_raise
:should_raise(x, IndexError)[1] should_raise(x, KeyError)['x']
- Dropped the mode parameter to
TempDirectory.read
. TempDirectory.makedir
andTempDirectory.write
no longer accept a path parameter.TempDirectory.read
andTempDirectory.write
now accept an encoding parameter to control how non-byte data is decoded and encoded respectively.- Added the prefix parameter to
compare
to allow failure messages to be made more informative. - Fixed a problem when using sub-second deltas with
test_time <mock_time>
.
- Fixed a bug in
~testfixtures.comparison.compare_dict
that mean the list of keys that were the same was returned in an unsorted order.
- Fixed compatibility with Python 2.5
- Fixed compatibility with Python 2.7
- Development model moved to continuous integration using Jenkins.
Introduced Tox__ based testing to ensure packaging and dependencies are as expected.
- 100% line and branch coverage with tests.
- Mark
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
,test_date <mock_date>
andtest_time <mock_time>
such that nose doesn't mistake them as tests.
- Fixed a bug where when a target was replaced more than once using a single
Replacer
,~Replacer.restore
would not correctly restore the original.
- Fixed a bug where attributes and keys could not be removed by a
Replacer
as described inremoving_attr_and_item
if the attribute or key might not be there, such as where a test wants to ensure anos.environ
variable is not set.
- Move to use nose for running the testfixtures unit tests.
- Fixed a bug where
~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.now
returned an instance of the wrong type when tzinfo was passed instrict mode <strict-dates-and-times>
.
Replacer
,TempDirectory
,LogCapture
and~components.TestComponents
instances will now warn if the process they are created in exits without them being cleaned up. Instances of these classes should be cleaned up at the end of each test and these warnings serve to point to a cause for possible mysterious failures elsewhere.
- Add a
strict mode <strict-dates-and-times>
totest_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_date <mock_date>
. When used, instances returned from the mocks are instances of those mocks. The default behaviour is now to return instances of the real~datetime.datetime
and~datetime.date
classes instead, which is usually much more useful.
- Add a
strict mode <strict-comparison>
tocompare
. When used, it ensures that the values compared are not only equal but also of the same type. This mode is not used by default, and the default mode restores the more commonly useful functionality where values of similar types but that aren't equal give useful feedback about differences.
- add back functionality to allow comparison of generators with non-generators.
compare
now uses a registry of comparers that can be modified either by passing a registry option tocompare
or, globally, using the~comparison.register
function.- added a comparer for
set
instances tocompare
. - added a new show_whitespace parameter to
~comparison.compare_text
, the comparer used when comparing strings and unicodes withcompare
. - The internal queue for
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
is now considered to be in local time. This has implication on the values returned from both~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.now
and~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.utcnow
when tzinfo is passed to thetest_datetime <mock_datetime>
constructor. ~testfixtures.datetime.MockDate.set
and~testfixtures.datetime.MockDate.add
ontest_date <mock_date>
,test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
now accept instances of the appropriate type as an alternative to just passing in the parameters to create the instance.- Refactored the monolithic
__init__.py
into modules for each type of functionality.
- Add a
~OutputCapture.captured
property toOutputCapture
so that more complex assertion can be made about the output that has been captured. OutputCapture
context managers can now be temporarily disabled using their~OutputCapture.disable
method.- Logging can now be captured only when it exceeds a specified logging level.
- The handling of timezones has been reworked in both
test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
. This is not backwards compatible but is much more useful and correct.
- Fix bugs where various
test_date <mock_date>
,test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
methods didn't accept keyword parameters.
- Fix for 1.10 and 1.11 releases that didn't include non-.py files as a result of the move from subversion to git.
- Fix bug where
testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.now
didn't accept the tz parameter thatdatetime.datetime.now
did.
- Give more useful output when comparing dicts and their subclasses.
- Turn
should_raise
into a decorator form ofShouldRaise
rather than the rather out-moded wrapper function that it was.
- Remove dependency on
zope.dottedname
. - Implement the ability to mock out
dict
andlist
items using~testfixtures.Replacer
and~testfixtures.replace
. - Implement the ability to remove attributes and
dict
items using~testfixtures.Replacer
and~testfixtures.replace
.
- Fix for issue #328:
~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.utcnow
oftest_datetime <mock_datetime>
now returns items from the internal queue in the same way as~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.now
.
- Fix bug when
ShouldRaise
context managers incorrectly reported what exception was incorrectly raised when the incorrectly raised exception was aKeyError
.
- Added
~components.TestComponents
for getting a sterile registry when testing code that useszope.component
.
- Added full Sphinx-based documentation.
- added a Manuel plugin for reading and writing files into a
TempDirectory
. - any existing log handlers present when a
LogCapture
is installed for a particular logger are now removed. - fix the semantics of
should_raise
, which should always expect an exception to be raised! - added the
ShouldRaise
context manager. - added recursive support to
TempDirectory.listdir
and added the newTempDirectory.check_all
method. - added support for forward-slash separated paths to all relevant
TempDirectory
methods. - added
TempDirectory.getpath
method. - allow files and directories to be ignored by a regular expression specification when using
TempDirectory
. - made
Comparison
objects work when the attributes expected might be class attributes. - re-implement
test_time <mock_time>
so that it uses the correct way to get timezone-less time. - added
~testfixtures.datetime.MockDateTime.set
along with delta and delta_type parameters totest_date <mock_date>
,test_datetime <mock_datetime>
andtest_time <mock_time>
. - allow the date class returned by the
~testfixtures.datetime.MockDate.today
method to be configured. - added the
OutputCapture
context manager. - added the
StringComparison
class. - added options to ignore trailing whitespace and blank lines when comparing multi-line strings with
compare
. - fixed bugs in the handling of some exception types when using
Comparison
,ShouldRaise
orshould_raise
. - changed
wrap
to correctly set __name__, along with some other attributes, which should help when using the decorators with certain testing frameworks.
- fixed a bug where the @replace decorator passed a classmethod rather than the replacment to the decorated callable when replacing a classmethod
- added set method to test_date, test_datetime and test_time to allow setting the parameters for the next instance to be returned.
- added delta and delta_type parameters to test_date,test_datetime and test_time to control the intervals between returned instances.
- changed Comparison to use __eq__ and __ne__ instead of the deprecated __cmp__
- documented that order matters when using Comparisons with objects that implement __eq__ themselves, such as instances of Django models.
- @replace and Replacer.replace can now replace attributes that may not be present, provided the strict parameter is passed as False.
- should_raise now catches BaseException rather than Exception so raising of SystemExit and KeyboardInterrupt can be tested.
- added support for using TempDirectory, Replacer and LogCapture as context managers.
- fixed test failure in Python 2.6.
- fix bug where should_raise didn't complain when no exception was raised but one was expected.
- clarified that the return of a should_raise call will be None in the event that an exception is raised but no expected exception is specified.
- should_raise now supports methods other than __call__
- added makedir and check_dir methods to TempDirectory and added support for sub directories to read and write
- added path parameter to write method of TempDirectory so that the full path of the file written can be easilly obtained
- added handy read and write methods to TempDirectory for creating and reading files in the temporary directory
- added support for rich comparison of objects that don't support vars()
- improved representation of failed Comparison
- improved representation of failed compare with sequences
- fixed bug that occurs when directory was deleted by a test that use tempdir or TempDirectory
- added TempDirectory helper
- added tempdir decorator
- LogCaptures now auto-install on creation unless configured otherwise
- LogCaptures now have a clear method
- LogCaptures now have a class method uninstall_all that uninstalls all instances of LogCapture. Handy for a tearDown method in doctests.
- add support to Comparisons for only comparing some attributes
- move to use zope.dottedname
- Initial Release
