I was looking for a way to replace python -m unittest discover -s tests with something like python setup.py test. As it turns out, python packaging has changed a ton over the last few years; python setup.py test is no longer supported:

********************************************************************************
Please remove any references to `setuptools.command.test` in all
supported versions of the affected package.

By 2024-Nov-15, you need to update your project and remove deprecated calls
or your builds will no longer be supported.
********************************************************************************

So, what is the modern approach to python packaging? Turns out the answer is pyproject.toml, summarized here: https://venthur.de/2022-12-18-python-packaging.html

Even though this might not be the most beautiful thing, it's apparently the path the python community's taken with packaging.

As a result, we can now run tests with simply pytest, and keep test/dev deps separate from core deps. I see this change as a step towards making the Python SDK more maintainable for the long term.
