==========================
Migrating between versions
==========================
New major versions of coverage.py might require you to adjust your settings,
options, or other aspects of your use. This page details those changes.
.. _migrating_6x_7x:
Migrating from 6.x to 7.x
-------------------------
- The way that wildcards when specifying file paths work in certain cases has changed in 7.x:
- Previously, ``*`` would incorrectly match directory separators, making
precise matching difficult. Patterns such as ``*tests/*``
will need to be changed to ``*/tests/*``.
- ``**`` now matches any number of nested directories. If you wish to retain the behavior of
``**/tests/*`` in previous versions then ``*/**/tests/*`` can be used instead.
- When remapping file paths with ``[paths]``, a path will be remapped only if
the resulting path exists. Ensure that remapped ``[paths]`` exist when upgrading
as this is now being enforced.
- The :ref:`config_report_exclude_also` setting is new in 7.2.0. It adds
exclusion regexes while keeping the default built-in set. It's better than
the older :ref:`config_report_exclude_lines` setting, which overwrote the
entire list. Newer versions of coverage.py will be adding to the default set
of exclusions. Using ``exclude_also`` will let you benefit from those
updates.
