pytest-2.5.1: fixes and new home page styling
===========================================================================

pytest is a mature Python testing tool with more than a 1000 tests 
against itself, passing on many different interpreters and platforms.  

The 2.5.1 release maintains the "zero-reported-bugs" promise by fixing
the three bugs reported since the last release a few days ago.  It also
features a new home page styling implemented by Tobias Bieniek, based on
the flask theme from Armin Ronacher:

    http://pytest.org

If you have anything more to improve styling and docs, 
we'd be very happy to merge further pull requests.

On the coding side, the release also contains a little enhancement to
fixture decorators allowing to directly influence generation of test
ids, thanks to Floris Bruynooghe.  Other thanks for helping with 
this release go to Anatoly Bubenkoff and Ronny Pfannschmidt.

As usual, you can upgrade from pypi via::

    pip install -U pytest

have fun and a nice remaining "bug-free" time of the year :)

  a collection node.  Thanks Andreas Kloeckner and Alex Gaynor for reporting
  and analysis.

- Allow parameterized fixtures to specify the ID of the parameters by
  adding an ids argument to pytest.fixture() and pytest.yield_fixture().
  Thanks Floris Bruynooghe.

  plugin.  Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt.
