which offers uebersimple assertions, scalable fixture mechanisms and
deep customization for testing with Python.  Particularly, this
release provides:

* integration fixes and improvements related to flask, numpy, nose,
  unittest, mock

* makes pytest work on py24 again (yes, people sometimes still need to
  use it)

* show "*,**" args in pytest tracebacks

Thanks to Manuel Jacob, Thomas Waldmann, Ronny Pfannschmidt, Pavel
Repin and Andreas Taumoefolau for providing patches and all for the
issues.

Changes between 2.3.2 and 2.3.3
===============================

* fix issue214 - parse modules that contain special objects like e. g.
  flask's request object which blows up on getattr access if no
  request is active. thanks Thomas Waldmann.

* fix issue213 - allow to parametrize with values like numpy arrays
  that do not support an __eq__ operator

* fix issue215 - split test_python.org into multiple files

* fix issue148 - @unittest.skip on classes is now recognized and
  avoids calling setUpClass/tearDownClass, thanks Pavel Repin

* fix issue209 - reintroduce python2.4 support by depending on newer
  pylib which re-introduced statement-finding for pre-AST interpreters

* nose support: only call setup if its a callable, thanks Andrew
  Taumoefolau

* fix issue219 - add py2.4-3.3 classifiers to TROVE list

* in tracebacks *,** arg values are now shown next to normal arguments
  (thanks Manuel Jacob)

* fix issue217 - support mock.patch with pytest's fixtures - note that
  you need either mock-1.0.1 or the python3.3 builtin unittest.mock.

* fix issue127 - improve documentation for pytest_addoption() and add
  a "config.getoption(name)" helper function for consistency.
