+pytest 4.2.0 (2019-01-30)
+=========================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#3094 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3094>`_: `Class xunit-style <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/xunit_setup.html>`__ functions and methods
+  now obey the scope of *autouse* fixtures.
+
+  This fixes a number of surprising issues like ``setup_method`` being called before session-scoped
+  autouse fixtures (see `#517 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/517>`__ for an example).
+
+
+- `#4627 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4627>`_: Display a message at the end of the test session when running under Python 2.7 and 3.4 that pytest 5.0 will no longer
+  support those Python versions.
+
+
+- `#4660 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4660>`_: The number of *selected* tests now are also displayed when the ``-k`` or ``-m`` flags are used.
+
+
+- `#4688 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4688>`_: ``pytest_report_teststatus`` hook now can also receive a ``config`` parameter.
+
+
+- `#4691 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4691>`_: ``pytest_terminal_summary`` hook now can also receive a ``config`` parameter.
+
+
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#3547 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3547>`_: ``--junitxml`` can emit XML compatible with Jenkins xUnit.
+  ``junit_family`` INI option accepts ``legacy|xunit1``, which produces old style output, and ``xunit2`` that conforms more strictly to https://github.com/jenkinsci/xunit-plugin/blob/xunit-2.3.2/src/main/resources/org/jenkinsci/plugins/xunit/types/model/xsd/junit-10.xsd
+
+
+- `#4280 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4280>`_: Improve quitting from pdb, especially with ``--trace``.
+
+  Using ``q[quit]`` after ``pdb.set_trace()`` will quit pytest also.
+
+
+- `#4402 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4402>`_: Warning summary now groups warnings by message instead of by test id.
+
+  This makes the output more compact and better conveys the general idea of how much code is
+  actually generating warnings, instead of how many tests call that code.
+
+
+- `#4536 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4536>`_: ``monkeypatch.delattr`` handles class descriptors like ``staticmethod``/``classmethod``.
+
+
+- `#4649 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4649>`_: Restore marks being considered keywords for keyword expressions.
+
+
+- `#4653 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4653>`_: ``tmp_path`` fixture and other related ones provides resolved path (a.k.a real path)
+
+
+- `#4667 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4667>`_: ``pytest_terminal_summary`` uses result from ``pytest_report_teststatus`` hook, rather than hardcoded strings.
+
+
+- `#4669 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4669>`_: Correctly handle ``unittest.SkipTest`` exception containing non-ascii characters on Python 2.
+
+
+- `#4680 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4680>`_: Ensure the ``tmpdir`` and the ``tmp_path`` fixtures are the same folder.
+
+
+- `#4681 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4681>`_: Ensure ``tmp_path`` is always a real path.
+
+
+
+Trivial/Internal Changes
+------------------------
+
+- `#4643 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4643>`_: Use ``a.item()`` instead of the deprecated ``np.asscalar(a)`` in ``pytest.approx``.
+
+  ``np.asscalar`` has been `deprecated <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/master/doc/release/1.16.0-notes.rst#new-deprecations>`__ in ``numpy 1.16.``.
+
+
+- `#4657 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/4657>`_: Copy saferepr from pylib
+
+
