The pytest team is proud to announce the 5.0.0 release!

pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 2000 tests
against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.

This release contains a number of bugs fixes and improvements, so
users are encouraged
to take a look at the CHANGELOG:

**As a special note**: The 5.X series is the first series to drop
support for Python 2 and Python 3.4.  For more details, see our Python
2.7 and 3.4 support plan:
