Metadata
Current evaluation
Renovate PR #1166 merged into main, bumping pytest-rerunfailures from ==16.4 to ==16.6 in pyproject.toml and uv.lock (+5/-5). Approved by 2 reviewers; all CI green except pre-existing snap-tests (openstack:).
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The PR itself was merged into main after review approval and passing CI, applying the pytest-rerunfailures 16.4 -> 16.6 upgrade across the two dependency files. The bump brings rerun test-isolation fixes and --rerun-exclude-path/--max-suite-reruns options.

### Release Notes
<details>
<summary>pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures (pytest-rerunfailures)</summary>
### [`v16.6`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/blob/HEAD/CHANGES.rst#166-2026-08-17)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/compare/16.5...16.6)
Features
++++++++
- Add a repeatable `--rerun-exclude-path` option to exclude test files or
directories from reruns. (`#​232 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/issues/232>`\_)
Bug Fixes
+++++++++
- Fix a regression in version 16.5 which made `--pdb` unusable even when no
reruns were configured. (`#​342 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/issues/342>`\_)
### [`v16.5`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/blob/HEAD/CHANGES.rst#165-2026-08-13)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/compare/16.4...16.5)
Features
++++++++
- Add `--max-suite-reruns` option to cap the total number of reruns across
the entire test suite. Once the limit is reached, no further reruns occur
regardless of per-test `--reruns` or `@pytest.mark.flaky` settings.
(`#​298 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/issues/298>`\_)
Bug Fixes
+++++++++
- Create a new test class instance for each rerun. Previously the instance of
the failed attempt was reused, so state stored on `self` leaked into the
rerun and broke test isolation. Fixtures cached at class scope or higher are
still not re-executed. (`#​268 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/issues/268>`\_)
- Prevent a rerun when a fixture teardown raises an error matching
`--rerun-except`. Previously only the error from the current test stage was
considered, so a `--rerun-except`-matching error raised during teardown was
ignored and the test was rerun anyway. (`#​270 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures/issues/270>`\_)
