<h1>pytest-2.6.2: few fixes and cx_freeze support<a class="headerlink" href="#pytest-2-6-2-few-fixes-and-cx-freeze-support" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 1100 tests
against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.
This release is drop-in compatible to 2.5.2 and 2.6.X.  It also
brings support for including pytest with cx_freeze or similar
freezing tools into your single-file app distribution.  For details
see the CHANGELOG below.</p>
<p>See docs at:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><a class="reference external" href="http://pytest.org">http://pytest.org</a></div></blockquote>
<p>As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>pip install -U pytest</pre>
</div>
<p>Thanks to all who contributed, among them:</p>
<blockquote>
