build(deps): bump coverage from 7.15.4 to 7.16.0

[dependabot]

Bumps coverage from 7.15.4 to 7.16.0.

Release notes

Sourced from coverage's releases.

7.16.0

Version 7.16.0 — 2026-08-28

• When combining files, now path separator slashes will automatically be converted to the local file system style. This makes it less necessary to define [paths] configuration to combine data across operating systems. Fixes issue 2266.
• The Coverage.switch_context() method now returns the previous context.
• Fix: previously, a [paths] pattern would be replaced everywhere in a file path when it was only meant to be replaced once, in the leading portion of the path. This is now fixed, in pull 2268.
• Fixes to validation of options and configuration settings:
  • Negative precision settings now always cause useful error messages (pull 2261).
  • An invalid regex in the --contexts option (or the [report] contexts setting) reported a confusing “Couldn’t use data file …: user-defined function raised exception” error. Now it raises a proper configuration error naming the bad regex, like other regex settings do (pull 2262).
  • Non-string values in TOML configuration settings now produce a helpful error message instead of a traceback. This affects list settings whose elements aren’t strings (like omit, exclude_lines, or a [paths] entry), file settings like data_file, and any wrong-typed value in the [paths] section (pull 2263).
  • coverage run refuses run-affecting command-line options like --branch alongside --concurrency=multiprocessing, since they can’t reach the subprocesses. The check only recognized multiprocessing as the entire option value, so --concurrency=multiprocessing,thread slipped through and failed later with “Can’t combine statement coverage data with branch data”. Each named concurrency library is now properly considered (pull 2270).
• Fix: coverage annotate -d DIR raised an AssertionError if any measured file had an extension other than .py, such as a .pyw file on Windows. The original extension is now restored on the annotated copy (pull 2265).

Version 7.16.0 — 2026-08-28

• When combining files, now path separator slashes will automatically be converted to the local file system style. This makes it less necessary to define [paths] configuration to combine data across operating systems. Fixes issue 2266_.

• The :meth:.Coverage.switch_context method now returns the previous context.

• Fix: previously, a [paths] pattern would be replaced everywhere in a file path when it was only meant to be replaced once, in the leading portion of the path. This is now fixed, in pull 2268_.

• Fixes to validation of options and configuration settings:

  • Negative precision settings now always cause useful error messages (pull 2261_).

  • An invalid regex in the --contexts option (or the [report] contexts setting) reported a confusing "Couldn't use data file ...: user-defined function raised exception" error. Now it raises a proper configuration error naming the bad regex, like other regex settings do (pull 2262_).

  • Non-string values in TOML configuration settings now produce a helpful error message instead of a traceback. This affects list settings whose elements aren't strings (like omit, exclude_lines, or a [paths] entry), file settings like data_file, and any wrong-typed value in the [paths] section (pull 2263_).

  • coverage run refuses run-affecting command-line options like --branch alongside --concurrency=multiprocessing, since they can't reach the subprocesses. The check only recognized multiprocessing as the entire option value, so --concurrency=multiprocessing,thread slipped through and failed later with "Can't combine statement coverage data with branch data". Each named concurrency library is now properly considered (pull 2270_).

• Fix: coverage annotate -d DIR raised an AssertionError if any measured file had an extension other than .py, such as a .pyw file on Windows. The original extension is now restored on the annotated copy (pull 2265_).
