Some change in astropy has cause this error (down in the log of https://travis-ci.org/tardis-sn/tardis/jobs/20567524). It can be avoided by --skip-docs. This is with the newest astropy but in a semi-affiliated package.

@mdboom, @astrofrog Help?

[mdboom]

You need a conftest.py at the root of your project with the following content:

from astropy.tests.pytest_plugins import *

This is in the latest package_template.
