with the boolean ``Node._skipped_by_mark``. (`#2767
<https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2767>`_)

- The ``params`` list passed to ``pytest.fixture`` is now for
all effects considered immutable and frozen at the moment of the ``pytest.fixture``
call. Previously the list could be changed before the first invocation of the fixture
allowing for a form of dynamic parametrization (for example, updated from command-line options),
but this was an unwanted implementation detail which complicated the internals and prevented
some internal cleanup. See issue `#2959 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2959>`_
for details and a recommended workaround.
