warnings.catch_warnings() now returns a list or None instead of the custom
WarningsRecorder object. This makes the API simpler to use as no special object
must be learned.
Closes issue 3781.
Review by Benjamin Peterson.

+
+Temporarily Suppressing Warnings
+--------------------------------
+
+If you are using code that you know will raise a warning, such some deprecated
+function, but do not want to see the warning, then suppress the warning using
+the :class:`catch_warnings` context manager::
+
+ import warnings
+
+ def fxn():
+ warnings.warn("deprecated", DeprecationWarning)
+
+ with warnings.catch_warnings():
+ warnings.simplefilter("ignore")
+ fxn()
+
+While within the context manager all warnings will simply be ignored. This
+allows you to use known-deprecated code without having to see the warning while
+not suppressing the warning for other code that might not be aware of its use
+of deprecated code.
+
+
+.. _warning-testing:
+
+Testing Warnings
+----------------
+
+To test warnings raised by code, use the :class:`catch_warnings` context
+manager. With it you can temporarily mutate the warnings filter to facilitate
+your testing. For instance, do the following to capture all raised warnings to
+check::
+
+ import warnings
+
+ def fxn():
+ warnings.warn("deprecated", DeprecationWarning)
+
+ with warnings.catch_warnings(record=True) as w:
+ # Cause all warnings to always be triggered.
+ warnings.simplefilter("always")
+ # Trigger a warning.
+ fxn()
+ # Verify some things
+ assert len(w) == 1
+ assert isinstance(w[-1].category, DeprecationWarning)
+ assert "deprecated" in str(w[-1].message)
+
+One can also cause all warnings to be exceptions by using ``error`` instead of
+``always``. One thing to be aware of is that if a warning has already been
+raised because of a ``once``/``default`` rule, then no matter what filters are
+set the warning will not be seen again unless the warnings registry related to
+the warning has been cleared.
+
+Once the context manager exits, the warnings filter is restored to its state
+when the context was entered. This prevents tests from changing the warnings
+filter in unexpected ways between tests and leading to indeterminate test
+results.

+--------------------------
.. class:: catch_warnings([\*, record=False, module=None])
- A context manager that guards the warnings filter from being permanently
- mutated. The manager returns an instance of :class:`WarningsRecorder`. The
- *record* argument specifies whether warnings that would typically be
- handled by :func:`showwarning` should instead be recorded by the
- :class:`WarningsRecorder` instance. This argument is typically set when
- testing for expected warnings behavior. The *module* argument may be a
- module object that is to be used instead of the :mod:`warnings` module.
- This argument should only be set when testing the :mod:`warnings` module
- or some similar use-case.
+ A context manager that copies and, upon exit, restores the warnings filter.
+ If the *record* argument is False (the default) the context manager returns
+ :class:`None`. If *record* is true, a list is returned that is populated
+ with objects as seen by a custom :func:`showwarning` function (which also
+ suppresses output to ``sys.stdout``). Each object has attributes with the
+ same names as the arguments to :func:`showwarning`.
- Typical usage of the context manager is like so::
-
- def fxn():
- warn("fxn is deprecated", DeprecationWarning)
- return "spam spam bacon spam"
-
- # The function 'fxn' is known to raise a DeprecationWarning.
- with catch_warnings() as w:
- warnings.filterwarning('ignore', 'fxn is deprecated', DeprecationWarning)
- fxn() # DeprecationWarning is temporarily suppressed.
+ The *module* argument takes a module that will be used instead of the
+ module returned when you import :mod:`warnings` whose filter will be
+ protected. This arguments exists primarily for testing the :mod:`warnings`
+ module itself.
