- Make
--hashseeddefault toPYTHONHASHSEED, if defined - by :user:`paravoid`. The main motivation for this is to able to set the hash seed when building the documentation withtox -e docs, and thus avoid embedding a random value in the tox documentation for --help.

- Instead of raising
UnicodeDecodeErrorwhen command output includes non-utf-8 bytes,toxwill now usesurrogateescapeerror handling to convert the unrecognized bytes to escape sequences according to PEP 383 - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2969`)
- Document running tox within a Docker container. (:issue:`1035`)
- Added python version 3.11 to
installation.rst. (:issue:`2964`)
tox.iniis now included in source distributions in order to make all tests pass. (:issue:`2939`)- Fix
--index-urland--find-linksbeing used together inrequirements.txtfiles. (:issue:`2959`)
- Plugins are now able to access tox.ini config sections using a custom prefix with the same suffix / name as a tox
testenv- by :user:`masenf` (:issue:`2926`)
- Ignore labels when tox will provision a runtime environment (
.tox) so that environment configurations which depend on provisioned plugins or specific tox versions are not accessed in the outer tox process where the configuration would be invalid - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2916`)
- Forward
HOMEby default - by :user:`gschaffner`. (:issue:`2702`)
- Tox will now expand self-referential extras discovered in package deps to respect local modifications to package metadata. This allows a package extra to explicitly depend on another package extra, which previously only worked with non-static metadata - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2904`)
- Allow the user configuration file (default
<appdir>/tox/config.ini) to be overridden via theTOX_USER_CONFIG_FILEenvironment variable. Previously tox was looking at theTOX_CONFIG_FILEto override the user configuration, however that environment variable is already used to override the main configuration - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2890`)
- In tox 4.4.0
constrain_package_depswas introduced with a default value ofTrue. This has been changed back toFalse, which restores the original behavior of tox 4.3.5 - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2897`)
Test environments now recognize boolean config keys
constrain_package_deps(default=true) anduse_frozen_constraints(default=false), which control how tox generates and applies constraints files when performinginstall_package_deps.If
constrain_package_depsis true (default), then tox will write out{env_dir}{/}constraints.txtand pass it topipduringinstall_package_deps. Ifuse_frozen_constraintsis false (default), the constraints will be taken from the specifications listed underdeps(and inside any requirements or constraints file referenced indeps). Otherwise,list_dependencies_command(pip freeze) is used to enumerate exact package specifications which will be written to the constraints file.In previous releases, conflicting package dependencies would silently override the
depsnamed in the configuration, resulting in test runs against unexpected dependency versions, particularly when using tox factors to explicitly test with different versions of dependencies - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2386`)
When parsing command lines, use
shlex(..., posix=True), even on windows platforms, since non-POSIX mode does not handle escape characters and quoting like a shell would. This improves cross-platform configurations without hacks or esoteric quoting.To make this transition easier, on Windows, the backslash path separator will not treated as an escape character unless it precedes a quote, whitespace, or another backslash character. This allows paths to mostly be written in single or double backslash style.
Note that double-backslash will no longer be escaped to a single backslash in substitutions, instead the double backslash will be consumed as part of command splitting, on either posix or windows platforms.
In some instances superfluous double or single quote characters may be stripped from arg arrays in ways that do not occur in the default windows
cmd.exeshell - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2635`)
- Add information when command from
list_dependencies_commandconfiguration option is used. (:issue:`2883`)
When building a
wheeloreditablepackage with a PEP 517 backend, no longer pass an emptymetadata_directoryto the backendbuild_wheelorbuild_editableendpoint.Some backends, such as PDM and poetry, will not generate package metadata in the presence of a
metadata_directory, even if it is empty.Prior to this change, attempting to install a wheel created by tox using PDM or poetry would return an error like "There is no item named 'my-package.0.1.dist-info/WHEEL' in the archive" - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2880`)
When executing via the provisioning environment (
.toxby default), runtoxin working directory of the parent process.Prior to this change (from tox 4.0.0), the provisioned
toxwould execute with{tox_root}as the working directory, which breaks when a relative path is passed to-cor--confandtoxis executed in a working directory other than{tox_root}- by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2876`)
- The provision environment (
.tox) will never inherit fromtestenv. During provisioning, other test environments are not processed, allowing the use of keys and values that may be registered by later tox version or provisioned plugins - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2862`)
- Fix regression introduced in 4.3.0 which occurred when a substitution expression for an environment variable that had previously been substituted appears in the ini file after a substitution expression for a different environment variable. This situation erroneously resulted in an exception about "circular chain between set" of those variables - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2869`)
- Fix regression introduced in 4.3.0 by expanding substitution expressions
(
{...}) that result from a previous subsitution's replacement value (up to 100 times). Note that recursive expansion is strictly depth-first; no replacement value will ever affect adjacent characters nor will expansion ever occur over the result of more than one replacement - by :user:`masenf`. (:issue:`2863`)
- Rewrite substitution replacement parser - by :user:`masenf`
\acts as a proper escape for\in ini-style substitutions- The resulting value of a substitution is no longer reprocessed in the context of the broader string. (Prior to this change, ini-values were repeatedly re-substituted until the expression no longer had modifications)
- Migrate and update "Substitutions" section of Configuration page from v3 docs.
find_replace_partis removed fromtox.config.loader.ini.replace- New names exported from
tox.config.loader.ini.replace: find_replace_exprMatchArgMatchErrorMatchExpression- Note: the API for

- Allow using package names with env markers for pip's
--no-binaryand--only-binaryoptions - by :user:`q0w`. (:issue:`2814`)
- A testenv with multiple factors, one of which conflicts with a
base_pythonsetting intox.ini, will now use the correct Python interpreter version - by :user:`stephenfin`. (:issue:`2838`) - Explicitly list
wheelas requirement for the tests, as some of the tests error without it. (:issue:`2843`) - tox has reverted support for Python factors that include PATCH release info (e.g.
py3.10.1), build architecture (e.g.pypy3-64) or do not define apyprefix or other supported prefix (e.g.3.10). These complex factors were initially supported with the release of tox 4.0 but has proven complicated to support. Instead, the simple factors supported by tox 3 e.g. (py310,pypy3) or period-separated equivalent (py3.10) introduced in tox 4 should be used. Users who wish to specify more specific Python version information should configure the :ref:`base_python` setting - by :user:`stephenfin`. (:issue:`2848`)
- Handle properly pip
--no-binary/--only-binaryoptions in requirements.txt format files. (:issue:`2814`)
- The combination of

use_develop = trueis set and an unsupported interpreter version is requested - by :user:`stephenfin`. (:issue:`2826`) - tox returns a non-zero error code if all envs are skipped. It will now correctly do this if only a single env was requested and this was skipped - by :user:`stephenfin`. (:issue:`2827`)
- Setting
[testenv] basepython = python3will no longer override the Python interpreter version requested by a factor, such aspy311- by :user:`stephenfin`. (:issue:`2754`) - Also accept tab after colon before factor filter expansion - by :user:`pdecat`. (:issue:`2823`)
devenvdoes not respect the specified path when the package is a wheel file - by :user:`gaborbernat`. (:issue:`2815`)- Require space after colon before factor filter expansion, unless it is the last character of the line - by :user:`pdecat`. (:issue:`2822`)
- Add
CC,CFLAGS,CCSHARED,CXX,CPPFLAGS,LDFLAGS,PKG_CONFIGandPKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIRto the default passed through environment variables list as these are needed for building various C-extensions - by :user:`gaborbernat`. (:issue:`2818`)
- Fix extracting extras from markers with more than 2 extras in an or chain - by :user:`dconathan`. (:issue:`2791`)
- Packaging environments now inherit from the

Remove Jenkins override support: this feature goes against the spirit of tox - blurring the line between the CI and local runs. It also singles out a single CI provider, which opens the door for other CIs wanting similar functionality.

Rework how we handle Python packaging environments:
- the base packaging environment changed from
.packageto.pkg, - merged the
sdist,wheelanddevseparate packaging implementations into one, and internally dynamically pick the one that's needed, - the base packaging environment always uses the same Python environment as tox is installed into,
- the base packaging environment is used to get the metadata of the project (via PEP-517) and to build
sdistanddevpackages, - for building wheels introduced a new per env configurable option
wheel_build_env, if the target Python major/minor and implementation for the run tox environment and the base package tox environment matches set this to.pkg, otherwise this is.pkg-{implementation}{major}{minor}, - internally now packaging environments can create further packaging environments they are responsible of managing,

Warning
The current tox is the second iteration of implementation. From version 0.5 all the way to 3.X
we numbered the first iteration. Version 4.0.0a1 is a complete rewrite of the package, and as such this release
history starts from there. The old changelog is still available in the
legacy branch documentation.
