The setup.py script has as a setup requirement a test-time one, pytest-runner.
According to the docs, setup_requires is for dependencies of the setup-tools themselves.
Such requirements typically are placed in the tests_require argument.
If this is currently impossible due to some installation script, there is additionally the test_suite argument for facilitating the launching of tests.
