===============================

Bug Fixes

#813 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/813>_: Cancel shutdown when a crashed worker is restarted.

#825 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/825>_: The --rsyncdir command line argument and rsyncdirs config variable are deprecated.

The rsync feature will be removed in pytest-xdist 4.0.
#826 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/826>_: The --looponfail command line argument and looponfailroots config variable are deprecated.

The loop-on-fail feature will be removed in pytest-xdist 4.0.

#791 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/791>_: Document the pytest_xdist_auto_num_workers hook.
#796 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/796>_: Added known limitations section to documentation.
#829 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/829>_: Document the -n logical option.

#792 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/792>_: The environment variable PYTEST_XDIST_AUTO_NUM_WORKERS can now be used to specify the default for -n auto and -n logical.
#812 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/812>_: Partially restore old initial batch distribution algorithm in LoadScheduling.

pytest orders tests for optimal sequential execution - i. e. avoiding unnecessary setup and teardown of fixtures. So executing tests in consecutive chunks is important for optimal performance.

In v1.14, initial test distribution in LoadScheduling was changed to round-robin, optimized for the corner case, when the number of tests is less than 2 * number of nodes. At the same time, it became worse for all other cases.

For example: if some tests use some "heavy" fixture, and these tests fit into the initial batch, with round-robin distribution the fixture will be created min(n_tests, n_workers) times, no matter how many other tests there are.

With the old algorithm (before v1.14), if there are enough tests not using the fixture, the fixture was created only once.

So restore the old behavior for typical cases where the number of tests is much greater than the number of workers (or, strictly speaking, when there are at least 2 tests for every node).

#468 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/468>_: The --boxed command-line option has been removed. If you still need this functionality, install pytest-forked <https://pypi.org/project/pytest-forked>__ separately.

#468 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/468>_: The py dependency has been dropped.
#822 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/822>_: Replace internal usage of py.log with a custom solution (but with the same interface).
#823 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/823>_: Remove usage of py._pydir as an rsync candidate.
#824 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/824>_: Replace internal usages of py.path.local by pathlib.Path.
