pytest 6 + pytest-cython cause test failure

[alerque]

At some point the Arch Linux package for 0.4.1 stopped building because the tests started failing. I just bumped the packages to 0.5.1, but tests are still failing.

I believe this has to do with the dependencies being used to test being newer than something this project is actually using. Here is the related output including versions of test dependencies and the deprecation notes that it errors out on:

Thanks. I noticed that as well. For the time being you can try using pytest < 6, I think that will work.

The pytest-cython module is using a deprecated pytest API. It has only been fixed very recently https://github.com/lgpage/pytest-cython/pull/5

I hope that they publish a new release with that fix soon.
