This probably won't help much, but I just tried running the tests manually on my machine at home, which has Python 3.6.9:

python3 -m pytest tests

Result:

============================= test session starts ==============================

So this all works as expected. As an additional test I then deliberately changed getFiles('./*') in 'test_jpylyzer.py' to an non-existing directory, and then ran the tests again. In this case I do end up with the same AssertionError that you're reporting. This makes me wonder if <<PKGBUILDDIR>> is pointing to the expected (or even an existing) directory in your build process?

Is this still happening with the latest Python version, or can I close this issue?

I can reproduce it today:

OK, I'll leave the issue open then, thanks for confirming this. (Still can't reproduce this on my own system, very strange.)
