Switch from flask-testing to pytest #207

Open sajith opened 7 months ago

sajith commented 7 months ago

Flask-testing appears to be unmaintained: it hasn't had a release after December 2020 (https://pypi.org/project/Flask-Testing/#history), and its GitHub repository appears to be inactive (https://github.com/jarus/flask-testing/activity).

Flask's documentation recommends pytest: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/testing/.

Came across this while working on figuring out some new tests, with #102, for example. Switching away from flask-testing probably is not an urgent change (I hope!), but we are likely to run into trouble with this in the near future.
