Release notes

Sourced from coverage's releases.

7.16.1

Version 7.16.1 — 2026-09-13

• Fix: when the body of an irrefutable case (like case _:) is entirely excluded, the case line is now excluded too, just as an excluded else: body removes the else: line. Previously the case line was left behind and reported as missing. Closes issue 1563 with pull 2269.
• Fix: using CoverageData.update() twice on an in-memory database would fail, as described in issue 2279. This is now fixed.

🤖 Claude Code Review

Review: Bump coverage 7.16.0 → 7.16.1

This is a dependency-only patch bump. It changes two lines in pyproject.toml: line 38 (development group) and line 87 (test group). A grep found no other coverage==7.16.x pins, so the two groups stay consistent. The python_version <= '3.11' pin at 7.10.7 is unchanged.

Code Quality

• ✅ Style: the formatting matches the surrounding entries.
• ✅ No commented-out code, naming is fine, and there's no duplication. Coverage is pinned in two groups, but that's the existing structure.
• ✅ Defects: none expected from a patch release. The environment marker is preserved.
• ✅ .claude/CLAUDE.md is generic and has nothing specific to a local environment. The PR doesn't touch it.

Testing

• ✅ No new code, so no new tests are needed. CI on Python 3.10–3.13 should confirm the install works. I haven't run it.
• ✅ I didn't measure coverage. The bump doesn't change what's tested.

Documentation

• ✅ No README or API doc changes are needed.
• ⚠️ I didn't check whether CHANGELOG.md needs an entry. The earlier dependency bumps in the history (Bump virtualenv from 21.7.8 to 21.7.9 #163–Bump virtualenv from 21.7.9 to 21.7.12 #165) look like routine Dependabot updates, so skipping it is probably the convention.
• ✅ No Markdown files changed.

Security

• ✅ No credentials, input handling, or logging changes.
• ✅ No .lic files are tracked, and the diff has no AQAAAD strings.

Verdict: ✅ Approve. It's a low-risk, routine bump with no issues found.
