Release notes

Sourced from coverage's releases.

7.16.2

Version 7.16.2 — 2026-09-27

• Fix: on Python 3.14 and later, a for loop completing immediately before a function return could mistakenly report an uncovered branch. This is now fixed, closing issue 2168.
• Fix: on Python 3.14 and later, the else clause of a try whose body is a with statement could incorrectly be reported as covered when the with raised. This is now fixed, closing issue 2289.
• Fix: with dynamic_context = test_function, test methods written as @staticmethod or @classmethod were not given a context of their own. Now they are, on Python 3.11 and later. Closes issue 1923.

🤖 Claude Code Review

PR Review: bump coverage 7.16.1 → 7.16.2

The diff changes pyproject.toml only. It updates the coverage pin for Python > 3.11 in two places, the development extra and the test extra. The python_version <= '3.11' pin (7.10.7) is unchanged.

Code Quality

• ✅ Style: The change is consistent with the surrounding pins. Both occurrences were updated, so the extras stay in sync.
• ✅ No commented-out code.
• ✅ Variable names: Not applicable.
• ✅ DRY: The same pin appears in two extras. That duplication was already there and is out of scope for this PR.
• ✅ Defects: None found. This is a patch-level bump of a dev/test-only dependency, so it has no runtime impact on the snippets.
• ✅ .claude/CLAUDE.md: Not modified. The existing file has no local-environment-specific content.

Testing

• ✅ Unit and integration tests: No new code, so none are needed. CI should run python -m pytest to confirm that pytest-cov 7.1.0 still works with coverage 7.16.2.
• ✅ Edge cases: Not applicable.
• ✅ Coverage threshold: Not affected by this change.

Documentation

• ✅ README and API docs: No update needed.
• ❌ CHANGELOG.md: Not updated. This is acceptable for a Dependabot dev-dependency bump, but check whether the project convention expects an entry.
• ✅ Markdown: No Markdown files changed.

Security

• ✅ No hardcoded credentials.
• ✅ Input validation and error handling: Not applicable.
• ✅ No sensitive data in logs.
• ✅ No license files: No .lic files and no AQAAAD strings in the diff.

Notes

• Untracked files are present in the working tree: build-resources/, pr_diff.txt, prompt-header.md, prompt-temp.md and review.txt. They are not part of this diff. Make sure none of them get committed.

Verdict: Approve, assuming CI passes.
