Fixes #7814.
Regressed in 6.1.0 in 62e249a.
The
x
is anstr
but is expected to be apathlib.Path
. Not caught by mypy becauseconfig.getini()
returnsAny
.Fix by just removing the
bestrelpath
call:testpaths are always relative to the rootdir, it thus would be very unusual to specify an absolute path there.
The code was wrong even before the regression:
py.path.local
'sbestrelpath
function expects apy.path.local
, not anstr
. But it had some weirdtry ... except AttributeError
fallback which just returns the argument, i.e. it was a no-op. So there is no behavior change.It seems reasonable to me to just print the full path if that's what the ini specifies.
The two other commits are related improvements.
