Now the generated C files for the first mypyc run test failure in a pytest session will be copied to the
.mypyc_test_output
directory, and this will be indicated in the test output. This is a convenience feature to help in the common scenario where all test failures have the same root cause, so any single output is sufficient for debugging.Document this and
--mypyc-showc
, which allows showing generated C for every test failure. The latter is too verbose to be enabled by default.
