Upgrade pytest to version 7.2.0 #84
Conversation
…please-build#82) The version of pip provided by `python3-pip` in Debian 12 will drop the custom `--system` option - passing it results in pip exiting with an error. Rather than always passing `--system` if the host OS is Debian-like, test whether the configured pip tool implements a `--system` option, and if so, pass it to the real pip invocation. Fixes please-build#81.
pytest 5.4.3 isn't compatible with Python 3.10 and newer. Python 3.10 support was officially added in pytest 6.2.5, while Python 3.11 isn't officially supported yet but appears to work correctly as of pytest 7.2.0. Upgrade to version 7.2.0 and pack its new dependencies into the pytest bootstrap pex. This also requires upgrading coverage from 5.5 to 6.5.0, which drops support for Python 3.5 and 3.6. (Both versions are now end-of-life.) Fixes thought-machine/please#2570.

We did have some users on Python 2 fairly recently, but they weren't using the plugin AFAIK. I think we have to drop it at this point - it's more important we support 3.10 and 3.11 than the EOL versions. Although probably that should constitute a major version of the plugin? |

Nice one, thanks, Chris! Yeah, I think more users will be happy that we're supporting pythons 3.10 and 3.11 than will be disappointed that we're dropping older versions. But regardless, I agree with Pebers - more important to support 3.10 and 3.11 and to stay up-to-date in general, especially in this instance given the performance gains. The only question is over the release... We've been developing on the v1 branch and tagging the v1 releases from there. I think the thing to do is to merge the v1 branch back into master, and tag v2 on the master branch. Does anyone have any thoughts/objections? |

No, no worries! It's a bit of a weird setup. Anyway just looking at v1 and it looks like we're actually already using pytest 7.1.3 there so in fact it seems like we don't need to make any breaking changes/tag a new major version! At least I assume it wouldn't break anything. Maybe the python2 tests are already broken...? So yeah maybe, if you wouldn't mind, could you update the v1 branch to 7.2.0 and we can just proceed that way? |

I'll copy your other fix over to v1 here: #85 |
