Tests are trying to write to /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ #11

Tests are trying to write to /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ and get: Permission denied.

I think they need to be adapted to not write to the directory they are executed in ...

Yes, this sounds like an error in design of the tests. All writing should be in temporary directories.

I did some initial investigation (see here) and I have half of a plan of how to fix it. Any advice would be welcome.

Any news?

kvas-it commented 6 years ago

I didn't get any better advice than to use pytest-virtualenv. I will try rewriting the tests to use this hopefully this week.

I'm back from my vacation. Has this been addressed already?

kvas-it commented 6 years ago

Hi Andreas, Unfortunately I have been quite busy in all this time and wasn't able to prioritize this. Still not done, sorry.

Hi Andreas! I have implemented a virtualenv-based solution to this ticket. Could you check if the tests now pass in your environment?
