The Travis CI "runslowtests" job is failing in the same way as master.
I've not compared Appveyor, but I see that's also failing on master.
Any thoughts on merging this?
I see https://github.com/pytest-dev/py/pull/158 added "this library is in maintenance mode and should not be used in new code", and dropping support for EOL Pythons would make that maintenance easier.
Hi @hugovk sorry for the silence here, thanks for tackling this!
We definitely want to merge this; the next pytest release (3.3) already dropped support for Python 2.6 and 3.3.
Would you mind rebasing/merging with the latest master? #157 fixed all tests in Linux and Windows so we can then merge this with more confidence. Also, I added an xfail in #157 for 2.6 which we could remove in this PR as well.
@nicoddemus Rebased, and reverted bdc9112b0982f0d5d195b8e088cd71b3ab578a14!
Are we to release 1.5.0 or 2.0 given the fact we are dropping 2.6 and 3.3?
We should decide and release pytest-3.2.4 with the appropriate pin, so the next pytest
release will allow users to pin appropriately to the pytest version if the need to continue using 2.6
or 3.3
. I see two options:
py-1.5
and pytest-3.3
: then pytest-3.2.4
(the next bugfix) should pin to py<1.5
.py-2.0
and pytest-4.0
: then pytest-3.2.4
(the next bugfix) should pin to py<2.0
.@RonnyPfannschmidt @The-Compiler @flub @hackebrot @hpk42 what do you guys think?
@nicoddemus i beleive a 1.5.0 is fine - but we should make a removal note about it (since those are EOL python version i think its fine to expect due diligence from those not fixing that problem)
but we should make a removal note about it
Done
If nobody manifests against it until then, I will open a PR on pytest
tomorrow pinning py<1.5
, then we can release pytest-3.2.4
with the pin and then finally we can release py-1.5
.
Actually I went ahead and created the PR now: pytest-dev/pytest#2916. We can wait until tomorrow to merge it; if nobody objects, I will merge and get pytest-3.2.4
rolling.
Thanks @hugovk again!
Now we just need to wait for pytest-3.2.4 to go out before releasing py-1.5
. 👍
Fixes #159.
