3.2.2 (2018-12-13)
------------------

- Fix Off-by-one error in ``modeltester`` (`#249`_). Thanks `@ext-jmmugnes`_ for the PR.

.. _#249: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/249


3.2.1 (2018-10-01)
------------------

- Fixed compatibility with PyQt5 5.11.3

3.2.0 (2018-09-26)
------------------

- The ``CallbackBlocker`` returned by ``qtbot.waitCallback()`` now has a new
  ``assert_called_with(...)`` convenience method.

3.1.0 (2018-09-23)
------------------

- If Qt's model tester implemented in C++ is available (PyQt5 5.11 or newer),
  the ``qtmodeltester`` fixture now uses that instead of the Python
  implementation. This can be turned off by passing  ``force_py=True`` to
  ``qtmodeltester.check()``.

- The Python code used by ``qtmodeltester`` is now based on the latest Qt
  modeltester. This also means that the ``data_display_may_return_none``
  attribute for ``qtmodeltester`` isn't used anymore.

- New ``qtbot.waitCallback()`` method that returns a ``CallbackBlocker``, which
  can be used to wait for a callback to be called.

- ``qtbot.assertNotEmitted`` now has a new ``wait`` parameter which can be used
  to make sure asynchronous signals aren't emitted by waiting after the code in
  the ``with`` block finished.

- The ``qt_wait_signal_raising`` option was renamed to ``qt_default_raising``.
  The old name continues to work, but is deprecated.

- The docs still referred to ``SignalTimeoutError`` in some places, despite it
  being renamed to ``TimeoutError`` in the 2.1 release. This is now corrected.

- Improve debugging output when no Qt wrapper was found.

- When no context is available for warnings on Qt 5, no ``None:None:0`` line is
  shown anymore.

- The ``no_qt_log`` marker is now registered with pytest so ``--strict`` can be
  used.

- ``qtbot.waitSignal`` with timeout ``0`` now expects the signal to arrive
  directly in the code enclosed by it.

Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PRs.

3.0.2 (2018-08-31)
------------------

- Another fix related to ``QtInfoMsg`` objects during logging (`#225`_).


3.0.1 (2018-08-30)
------------------

- Fix handling of ``QtInfoMsg`` objects during logging (`#225`_).
  Thanks `@willsALMANJ`_ for the report.

.. _#225: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/225


3.0.0 (2018-07-12)
------------------

- Removed ``qtbot.mouseEvent`` proxy, it was an internal Qt function which has
  now been removed in PyQt 5.11 (`#219`_). Thanks `@mitya57`_ for the PR.

- Fix memory leak when tests raised an exception inside Qt virtual methods (`#187`_).
  Thanks `@fabioz`_ for the report and PR.

.. _#187: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/187
.. _#219: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/219


2.4.1 (2018-06-14)
------------------

- Properly handle chained exceptions when capturing them inside
  virtual methods (`#215`_). Thanks `@fabioz`_ for the report and sample
  code with the fix.

.. _#215: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/215


2.4.0
-----

- Use new pytest 3.6 marker API when possible (`#212`_). Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR.

.. _#212: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/212

2.3.2
-----

- Fix ``QStringListModel`` import when using ``PySide2`` (`#209`_). Thanks `@rth`_ for the PR.

.. _#209: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/209


2.3.1
-----

- ``PYTEST_QT_API`` environment variable correctly wins over ``qt_api``
  ini variable if both are set at the same time (`#196`_). Thanks `@mochick`_ for the PR.

.. _#196: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/196


2.3.0
-----

- New ``qapp_args`` fixture which can be used to pass custom arguments to
  ``QApplication``.
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR.

2.2.1
-----

- ``modeltester`` now accepts ``QBrush`` for ``BackgroundColorRole`` and ``TextColorRole`` (`#189`_).
  Thanks `@p0las`_ for the PR.

.. _#189: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/189



2.2.0
-----

- ``pytest-qt`` now supports `PySide2`_ thanks to `@rth`_!

.. _PySide2: https://wiki.qt.io/PySide2


2.1.2
-----

- Fix issue where ``pytestqt`` was hiding the information when there's an exception raised from another exception on Python 3.

2.1.1
-----

- Fixed tests on Python 3.6.

2.1
---

- ``waitSignal`` and ``waitSignals`` now provide much more detailed messages
  when expected signals are not emitted. Many thanks to `@MShekow`_ for the PR
  (`#153`_).

- ``qtbot`` fixture now can capture Qt virtual method exceptions in a block using
  ``captureExceptions`` (`#154`_). Thanks to `@fogo`_ for the PR.

- New `qtbot.waitActive`_ and `qtbot.waitExposed`_ methods for PyQt5.
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the request (`#158`_).

- ``SignalTimeoutError`` has been renamed to ``TimeoutError``. ``SignalTimeoutError`` is kept as
  a backward compatibility alias.

.. _qtbot.waitActive: http://pytest-qt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference.html#pytestqt.qtbot.QtBot.waitActive
.. _qtbot.waitExposed: http://pytest-qt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference.html#pytestqt.qtbot.QtBot.waitExposed

.. _#153: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/153

.. _#158: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/158

Breaking Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With ``pytest-qt`` 2.0, we changed some defaults to values we think are much
better, however this required some backwards-incompatible changes:

- ``pytest-qt`` now defaults to using ``PyQt5`` if ``PYTEST_QT_API`` is not set.
  Before, it preferred ``PySide`` which is using the discontinued Qt4.

- Python 3 versions prior to 3.4 are no longer supported.

- The ``@pytest.mark.qt_log_ignore`` mark now defaults to ``extend=True``, i.e.
  extends the patterns defined in the config file rather than overriding them.
  You can pass ``extend=False`` to get the old behaviour of overriding the
  patterns.

- ``qtbot.waitSignal`` now defaults to ``raising=True`` and raises an exception
  on timeouts. You can set ``qt_wait_signal_raising = false`` in your config to
  get back the old behaviour.

- ``PYTEST_QT_FORCE_PYQT`` environment variable is no longer supported. Set ``PYTEST_QT_API``
  to the appropriate value instead or the new ``qt_api`` configuration option in your
  ``pytest.ini`` file.


New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~

* From this version onward, ``pytest-qt`` is licensed under the MIT license (`#134`_).

* New ``qtmodeltester`` fixture to test ``QAbstractItemModel`` subclasses.
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the initiative and port of the original C++ code
  for ModelTester (`#63`_).

* New ``qtbot.waitUntil`` method, which continuously calls a callback until a condition
  is met or a timeout is reached. Useful for testing asynchronous features
  (like in X window environments for example).

* ``waitSignal`` and ``waitSignals`` can receive an optional callback (or list of callbacks)
  that can evaluate if the arguments of emitted signals should resume execution or not.
  Additionally ``waitSignals`` has a new ``order`` parameter that allows to expect signals
  and their arguments in a strict, semi-strict or no specific order.
  Thanks `@MShekow`_ for the PR (`#141`_).

* Now which Qt binding ``pytest-qt`` will use can be configured by the ``qt_api`` config option.
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the request (`#129`_).

* While ``pytestqt.qt_compat`` is an internal module and shouldn't be imported directly,
  it is known that some test suites did import it. This module now uses a lazy-load mechanism
  to load Qt classes and objects, so the old symbols (``QtCore``, ``QApplication``, etc.) are
  no longer available from it.

.. _#141: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/141
.. _#63: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/63
.. _#129: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/129


Other Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- Exceptions caught by ``pytest-qt`` in ``sys.excepthook`` are now also printed
  to ``stderr``, making debugging them easier from within an IDE.
  Thanks `@fabioz`_ for the PR (`126`_)!

.. _126: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/pull/126

1.11.0
------

.. note::

    The default value for ``raising`` is planned to change to ``True`` starting in
    pytest-qt version ``1.12``. Users wishing to preserve
    the current behavior (``raising`` is ``False`` by default) should make
    use of the new ``qt_wait_signal_raising`` ini option below.

- New ``qt_wait_signal_raising`` ini option can be used to override the default
  value of the ``raising`` parameter of the ``qtbot.waitSignal`` and
  ``qtbot.waitSignals`` functions when omitted:

  .. code-block:: ini

      [pytest]
      qt_wait_signal_raising = true

  Calls which explicitly pass the ``raising`` parameter are not affected.
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for idea and initial work on a PR (`120`_).


- ``qtbot`` now has a new ``assertNotEmitted`` context manager which can be
  used to ensure the given signal is not emitted (`92`_).
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR!


.. _92: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/92
.. _120: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/120


1.10.0
------

- ``SignalBlocker`` now has a ``args`` attribute with the arguments of the
  signal that triggered it, or ``None`` on a time out (`115`_).
  Thanks `@billyshambrook`_ for the request and `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR.

- ``MultiSignalBlocker`` is now properly disconnects from signals upon exit.

.. _115: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/115

1.9.0
-----

- Exception capturing now happens as early/late as possible in order to catch
  all possible exceptions (including fixtures)(`105`_). Thanks
  `@The-Compiler`_ for the request.

- Widgets registered by ``qtbot.addWidget`` are now closed  before all other
  fixtures are tear down (`106`_). Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for request.

- ``qtbot`` now has a new ``wait`` method which does a blocking wait while the
  event loop continues to run, similar to ``QTest::qWait``. Thanks
  `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR (closes `107`_)!

- raise ``RuntimeError`` instead of ``ImportError`` when failing to import
  any Qt binding: raising the latter causes ``pluggy`` in ``pytest-2.8`` to
  generate a subtle warning instead of a full blown error.
  Thanks `@Sheeo`_ for bringing this problem to attention (closes `109`_).

.. _105: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/105
.. _106: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/106
.. _107: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/107
.. _109: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/109


1.8.0
-----

- ``pytest.mark.qt_log_ignore`` now supports an ``extend`` parameter that will extend
  the list of regexes used to ignore Qt messages (defaults to False).
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR (`99`_).

- Fixed internal error when interacting with other plugins that raise an error,
  hiding the original exception (`98`_). Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR!

- Now ``pytest-qt`` is properly tested with PyQt5 on Travis-CI. Many thanks
  to `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR!

.. _99: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/99
.. _98: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/98

1.7.0
-----

- ``PYTEST_QT_API`` can now be set to ``pyqt4v2`` in order to use version 2 of the
  PyQt4 API. Thanks `@montefra`_ for the PR (`93`_)!

.. _93: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/93


1.6.0
-----

- Reduced verbosity when exceptions are captured in virtual methods
  (`77`_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_).

- ``pytestqt.plugin`` has been split in several files (`74`_) and tests have been
  moved out of the ``pytestqt`` package. This should not affect users, but it
  is worth mentioning nonetheless.

- ``QApplication.processEvents()`` is now called before and after other fixtures
  and teardown hooks, to better try to avoid non-processed events from leaking
  from one test to the next. (67_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_).

- Show Qt/PyQt/PySide versions in pytest header (68_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_!).

- Disconnect SignalBlocker functions after its loop exits to ensure second
  emissions that call the internal functions on the now-garbage-collected
  SignalBlocker instance (#69, thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the PR).

.. _77: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/77
.. _74: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/74
.. _67: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/67
.. _68: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/68

1.5.1
-----

- Exceptions are now captured also during test tear down, as delayed events will
  get processed then and might raise exceptions in virtual methods;
  this is specially problematic in ``PyQt5.5``, which
  `changed the behavior <http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt5/incompatibilities.html#pyqt-v5-5>`_
  to call ``abort`` by default, which will crash the interpreter.
  (65_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_).

.. _65: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/65

1.5.0
-----

- Fixed log line number in messages, and provide better contextual information
  in Qt5 (55_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_);

- Fixed issue where exceptions inside a ``waitSignals`` or ``waitSignal``
  with-statement block would be swallowed and a ``SignalTimeoutError`` would be
  raised instead. (59_, thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for bringing up the issue and
  providing a test case);

- Fixed issue where the first usage of ``qapp`` fixture would return ``None``.
  Thanks to `@gqmelo`_ for noticing and providing a PR;
- New ``qtlog`` now sports a context manager method, ``disabled`` (58_).
  Thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for the idea and testing;

.. _55: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/55
.. _58: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/58
.. _59: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/59

1.4.0
-----

- Messages sent by ``qDebug``, ``qWarning``, ``qCritical`` are captured and displayed
  when tests fail, similar to `pytest-catchlog`_. Also, tests
  can be configured to automatically fail if an unexpected message is generated.

- New method ``waitSignals``: will block untill **all** signals given are
  triggered (thanks `@The-Compiler`_ for idea and complete PR).

- New parameter ``raising`` to ``waitSignals`` and ``waitSignals``: when ``True``
  will raise a ``qtbot.SignalTimeoutError`` exception when
  timeout is reached (defaults to ``False``).
  (thanks again to `@The-Compiler`_ for idea and complete PR).

- ``pytest-qt`` now requires ``pytest`` version >= 2.7.

.. _pytest-catchlog: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-catchlog

Internal changes to improve memory management
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- ``QApplication.exit()`` is no longer called at the end of the test session
  and the ``QApplication`` instance is not garbage collected anymore;

- ``QtBot`` no longer receives a QApplication as a parameter in the
  constructor, always referencing ``QApplication.instance()`` now; this avoids
  keeping an extra reference in the ``qtbot`` instances.

- ``deleteLater`` is called on widgets added in ``QtBot.addWidget`` at the end
  of each test;

- ``QApplication.processEvents()`` is called at the end of each test to
  make sure widgets are cleaned up;

1.3.0
-----

- pytest-qt now supports `PyQt5`_!

  Which Qt api will be used is still detected automatically, but you can choose
  one using the ``PYTEST_QT_API`` environment variable
  (the old ``PYTEST_QT_FORCE_PYQT`` is still supported for backward compatibility).

  Many thanks to `@jdreaver`_ for helping to test this release!

.. _PyQt5: http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt5/introduction.html

1.2.3
-----

- Now the module ````qt_compat```` no longer sets ``QString`` and ``QVariant`` APIs to
  ``2`` for PyQt, making it compatible for those still using version ``1`` of the
  API.

1.2.2
-----

- Now it is possible to disable automatic exception capture by using markers or
  a ``pytest.ini`` option. Consult the documentation for more information.
  (`26`_, thanks `@datalyze-solutions`_ for bringing this up).

- ``QApplication`` instance is created only if it wasn't created yet
  (`21`_, thanks `@fabioz`_!)

- ``addWidget`` now keeps a weak reference its widgets (`20`_, thanks `@fabioz`_)

1.2.1
-----

- Fixed 16_: a signal emitted immediately inside a ``waitSignal`` block now
  works as expected (thanks `@baudren`_).

.. _16: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues/16

1.2.0
-----

This version include the new ``waitSignal`` function, which makes it easy
to write tests for long running computations that happen in other threads
or processes:

.. code-block:: python

    def test_long_computation(qtbot):
        app = Application()

        # Watch for the app.worker.finished signal, then start the worker.
        with qtbot.waitSignal(app.worker.finished, timeout=10000) as blocker:
            blocker.connect(app.worker.failed)  # Can add other signals to blocker
            app.worker.start()
            # Test will wait here until either signal is emitted, or 10 seconds has elapsed

        assert blocker.signal_triggered  # Assuming the work took less than 10 seconds
        assert_application_results(app)

Many thanks to `@jdreaver`_ for discussion and complete PR! (`12`_, `13`_)

1.1.1
-----

- Added ``stop`` as an alias for ``stopForInteraction`` (`10`_, thanks `@itghisi`_)

- Now exceptions raised in virtual methods make tests fail, instead of silently
  passing (`11`_). If an exception is raised, the test will fail and it exceptions
  that happened inside virtual calls will be printed as such::


    E           Failed: Qt exceptions in virtual methods:
    E           ________________________________________________________________________________
    E             File "x:\pytest-qt\pytestqt\_tests\test_exceptions.py", line 14, in event
    E               raise ValueError('mistakes were made')
    E
    E           ValueError: mistakes were made

    E
    E           ValueError: mistakes were made
    E           ________________________________________________________________________________

  Thanks to `@jdreaver`_ for request and sample code!

- Fixed documentation for ``QtBot``: it was not being rendered in the
  docs due to an import error.
