logilab-devtools #2895 include pycoverage 2.6 changes [deprecated]

release de pycoverage 2.6 :

  • Function decorators no longer confuse it (thanks, Joseph Tate).
  • Fixes for argument handling (thanks, Mark van der Wal and Sigve Tjora).
  • A new parallel mode lets many processes collect coverage data at once, and then later collate everything together for unified reporting (thanks, Geoff Bache).

stop backporting coverage instead

because we provide a modified version of coverage. IIRC, essentially to get partial reports / annotation about only a subset of the covered information. We should probably try to move this upstream (though the merge will be painful I'm afraid) and remove coverage from devtools.

Why do we continue to package the brilliant coverage in devtools module since the python-coverage exists now in Debian repository ?

    coverage 2.76 was released recently. Changes include:

    • 2006-07-23 NMB Applied Joseph Tate's patch for function decorators.
    • 2006-08-21 NMB Applied Sigve Tjora and Mark van der Wal's fixes for argument handling.
    • 2006-08-22 NMB Applied Geoff Bache's parallel mode patch.
    • 2006-08-23 NMB Refactorings to improve testability. Fixes to command-line logic for parallel mode and collect.
    • 2006-08-25 NMB "pragma: nocover" is excluded by default.
    • 2006-09-10 NMB Properly ignore docstrings and other constant expressions that appear in the middle of a function, a problem reported by Tim Leslie. Minor changes to avoid lint warnings.
    • 2006-09-17 NMB coverage.erase() shouldn't clobber the exclude regex. Change how parallel mode is invoked, and fix erase() so that it erases the cache when called programmatically.
    • 2007-07-21 NMB In reports, ignore code executed from strings, since we can't do anything useful with it anyway. Better file handling on Linux, thanks Guillaume Chazarain. Better shell support on Windows, thanks Noel O'Boyle. Python 2.2 support maintained, thanks Catherine Proulx.
    • 2007-07-22 NMB Python 2.5 now fully supported. The method of dealing with multi-line statements is now less sensitive to the exact line that Python reports during execution. Pass statements are handled specially so that their disappearance during execution won't throw off the measurement.
    • 2007-07-23 NMB Now Python 2.5 is really fully supported: the body of the new with statement is counted as executable.
