build(deps): update dependency pytest-cov to v7
Metadata
Current evaluation
Closed unmerged: pytest-cov 7 requires Python 3.9+, conflicting with craft-platforms' Python 3.8 support, so Renovate could not update uv.lock.
Resolution: closed stale
Reason: The artifact update failed because pytest-cov 7.0.0 requires Python >=3.9 while the project still declares >=3.8. The PR was then closed unmerged.

### Release Notes
<details>
<summary>pytest-dev/pytest-cov (pytest-cov)</summary>
### [`v7.0.0`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#700-2025-09-09)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.3.0...v7.0.0)
- Dropped support for subprocesses measurement.
It was a feature added long time ago when coverage lacked a nice way to measure subprocesses created in tests.
It relied on a `.pth` file, there was no way to opt-out and it created bad interations
with `coverage's new patch system <https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#run-patch>`\_ added
in `7.10 <https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/7.10.6/changes.html#version-7-10-0-2025-07-24>`\_.
To migrate to this release you might need to enable the suprocess patch, example for `.coveragerc`:
.. code-block:: ini
\[run]
patch = subprocess
This release also requires at least coverage 7.10.6.
- Switched packaging to have metadata completely in `pyproject.toml` and use `hatchling <https://pypi.org/project/hatchling/>`\_ for
building.
Contributed by Ofek Lev in `#​551 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/551>`\_
with some extras in `#​716 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/716>`\_.
- Removed some not really necessary testing deps like `six`.
### [`v6.3.0`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#630-2025-09-06)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.2.1...v6.3.0)
- Added support for markdown reports.
Contributed by Marcos Boger in `#​712 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/712>`\_
and `#​714 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/714>`\_.
- Fixed some formatting issues in docs.
Anonymous contribution in `#​706 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/706>`\_.
### [`v6.2.1`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#621-2025-06-12)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.2.0...v6.2.1)
- Added a version requirement for pytest's pluggy dependency (1.2.0, released 2023-06-21) that has the required new-style hookwrapper API.
- Removed deprecated license classifier (packaging).
- Disabled coverage warnings in two more situations where they have no value:
- "module-not-measured" in workers
- "already-imported" in subprocesses
### [`v6.2.0`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#620-2025-06-11)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.1.1...v6.2.0)
- The plugin now adds 3 rules in the filter warnings configuration to prevent common coverage warnings being raised as obscure errors::
default:unclosed database in \<sqlite3.Connection object at:ResourceWarning
once::PytestCovWarning
once::CoverageWarning
This fixes most of the bad interactions that are occurring on pytest 8.4 with `filterwarnings=error`.
The plugin will check if there already matching rules for the 3 categories
(`ResourceWarning`, `PytestCovWarning`, `CoverageWarning`) and message (`unclosed database in <sqlite3.Connection object at`) before adding the filters.
This means you can have this in your pytest configuration for complete oblivion (not recommended, if that is not clear)::
filterwarnings = \[
"error",
"ignore:unclosed database in \<sqlite3.Connection object at:ResourceWarning",
"ignore::PytestCovWarning",
"ignore::CoverageWarning",
]
### [`v6.1.1`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#611-2025-04-05)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.1.0...v6.1.1)
- Fixed breakage that occurs when `--cov-context` and the `no_cover` marker are used together.
### [`v6.1.0`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#610-2025-04-01)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v6.0.0...v6.1.0)
- Change terminal output to use full width lines for the coverage header.
Contributed by Tsvika Shapira in `#​678 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/pull/678>`\_.
- Removed unnecessary CovFailUnderWarning. Fixes `#​675 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/675>`\_.
- Fixed the term report not using the precision specified via `--cov-precision`.
### [`v6.0.0`](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.rst#600-2024-10-29)
[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/compare/v5.0.0...v6.0.0)
- Updated various documentation inaccuracies, especially on subprocess handling.
- Changed fail under checks to use the precision set in the coverage configuration.
Now it will perform the check just like `coverage report` would.
- Added a `--cov-precision` cli option that can override the value set in your coverage configuration.
- Dropped support for now EOL Python 3.8.
