Bump pytest from 8.4.2 to 9.0.2

[dependabot]

Bumps pytest from 8.4.2 to 9.0.2.

Release notes

Sourced from pytest's releases.

9.0.2

pytest 9.0.2 (2025-12-06)

Bug fixes

• #13896: The terminal progress feature added in pytest 9.0.0 has been disabled by default, except on Windows, due to compatibility issues with some terminal emulators.

  You may enable it again by passing -p terminalprogress. We may enable it by default again once compatibility improves in the future.

  Additionally, when the environment variable TERM is dumb, the escape codes are no longer emitted, even if the plugin is enabled.

• #13904: Fixed the TOML type of the tmp_path_retention_count settings in the API reference from number to string.

• #13946: The private config.inicfg attribute was changed in a breaking manner in pytest 9.0.0. Due to its usage in the ecosystem, it is now restored to working order using a compatibility shim. It will be deprecated in pytest 9.1 and removed in pytest 10.

• #13965: Fixed quadratic-time behavior when handling unittest subtests in Python 3.10.

Improved documentation

• #4492: The API Reference now contains cross-reference-able documentation of pytest's command-line flags <command-line-flags>.

9.0.1

pytest 9.0.1 (2025-11-12)

Bug fixes

• #13895: Restore support for skipping tests via raise unittest.SkipTest.
• #13896: The terminal progress plugin added in pytest 9.0 is now automatically disabled when iTerm2 is detected, it generated desktop notifications instead of the desired functionality.
• #13904: Fixed the TOML type of the verbosity settings in the API reference from number to string.
• #13910: Fixed UserWarning: Do not expect file_or_dir on some earlier Python 3.12 and 3.13 point versions.

Packaging updates and notes for downstreams

• #13933: The tox configuration has been adjusted to make sure the desired version string can be passed into its package_env through the SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION_FOR_PYTEST environment variable as a part of the release process -- by webknjaz.

Contributor-facing changes

• #13891, #13942: The CI/CD part of the release automation is now capable of creating GitHub Releases without having a Git checkout on disk -- by bluetech and webknjaz.
• #13933: The tox configuration has been adjusted to make sure the desired version string can be passed into its package_env through the SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION_FOR_PYTEST environment variable as a part of the release process -- by webknjaz.

Analysis of PR Diff

This pull request updates the pytest dependency from version 8.4.2 to 9.0.2 in the pyproject.toml file.

---

Code Quality

✅ Code follows style guide - The changes are consistent with the existing file format and TOML syntax conventions.

✅ No commented-out code - No commented code present in the changes.

✅ Meaningful variable names - N/A - This is a dependency version update only.

✅ DRY principle followed - The pytest version is defined in two places (development and test dependency groups), which is appropriate for this use case to ensure consistency across both groups.

✅ No defects identified - The changes are straightforward dependency updates. However, ⚠️ Note: This is a major version bump (8.x → 9.x) for pytest. While the syntax is correct, this should be verified:

• Check if pytest 9.0.2 introduces any breaking changes that could affect existing tests
• Ensure all tests pass with the new version
• Review pytest 9.0 changelog for any API changes

✅ Project memory configuration - No .claude/CLAUDE.md file detected in this repository based on the git status, so this criterion is not applicable.

---

Testing

⚠️ Testing verification needed - Since this is a major version upgrade of the testing framework itself:

• Verify all existing unit tests pass with pytest 9.0.2
• Verify integration tests pass
• Confirm edge cases still work as expected
• Check that test coverage reporting still functions correctly

Recommendation: Run the full test suite to confirm compatibility before merging.

---

Documentation

✅ Readme updated - N/A for dependency updates unless there are breaking changes that affect how developers run tests.

✅ API docs updated - N/A for dependency updates.

✅ Inline comments - N/A for this change.

❌ CHANGELOG.md updated - No changes to CHANGELOG.md are present in this diff. Action required: Update CHANGELOG.md to document the pytest version upgrade from 8.4.2 to 9.0.2.

✅ Markdown formatting - N/A for this change (no markdown files modified).

---

Security

✅ No hardcoded credentials - None present.

✅ Input validation - N/A for dependency updates.

✅ Proper error handling - N/A for dependency updates.

✅ No sensitive data in logs - N/A for dependency updates.

✅ No license files - No .lic files or AQAAAD strings detected in the changes.

---

Summary

✅ Approved with Recommendations

Critical Issues: None

Required Actions:

1. Update CHANGELOG.md to document the pytest version bump (pyproject.toml:45, pyproject.toml:82)
2. Run full test suite to verify pytest 9.0.2 compatibility (major version upgrade)

Recommendations:

• Review the pytest 9.0 release notes for breaking changes
• Consider testing in a staging environment first if this is a production dependency

The code changes themselves are clean and correctly implemented, but the major version upgrade warrants thorough testing before merging.

Summary

This PR updates pytest from version 8.4.2 to 9.0.2, which is a major version upgrade.

✅ Positives:

• Clean, focused change
• Consistently updated in both development and test dependency groups
• No code quality or security concerns

⚠️ Recommendations:

1. CHANGELOG.md (pyproject.toml:45, pyproject.toml:82): Add an entry documenting this pytest major version upgrade

2. Testing verification: Since this is a major version bump, ensure:

   • All existing tests pass with pytest 9.0.2
   • Review pytest 9.0 release notes for breaking changes: https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/changelog.html
   • Check for any deprecation warnings in test output

3. Consider alignment with recent activity: I notice there was a recent PR (Bump sphinx-gallery from 0.19.0 to 0.20.0 #140) that merged just before this. Ensure CI/CD passes with the new pytest version.

Overall Assessment: ✅ APPROVED with minor documentation request

The code change itself is sound, but please add a CHANGELOG entry for traceability of this dependency upgrade.
