Python 2.6.6 的 Pytest 版本

Question

我正在尝试在 Python 2.6.6 RHEL 6.10 上设置 pytest。

正如 official change log 中所指出的，pytest 3.3.0 不支持 python 2.6，因此应考虑 pytest < 3.3。我可以成功安装 pytest=3.2.5，但是当我执行简单测试时出现以下错误：

快速搜索表明 decode() 在 python 2.7 中接受参数。如果这是依赖的情况，那么 Python 2.6.6 推荐使用哪个版本的 pytest？

Answer 1

pytest==3.2.5 是仍然支持 Python 2.6 的版本，但是仅仅因为 pytest==3.2.5 支持 Python 2.6，并不一定意味着它的依赖项作为setup.py 中指定的库作者支持 Python 2.6.

大多数软件包使用 greater-than 约束来指定它们的依赖关系，例如libxxx>=1.2.3，以确保当依赖库作者发布它们时，您将自动获得更新版本的依赖项，但您永远不会下载不兼容的旧版本。在大多数情况下，这很好，因为它减少了库作者的工作量，但这意味着如果该依赖库发布了一个较新的版本，该版本放弃了对依赖库仍然支持的特定版本的支持，您将把它拉进来，因为没有 less-than 约束来防止这种情况。

在这种情况下，根据您显示的回溯，提取的 py.io 库不支持 python 2.6。您需要降级并将 py.io 固定到仍支持 2.6 的旧版本。

根据py.io changelog，最后一个仍然支持Python 2.6的版本是py.io==1.4.34.

如果支持旧软件对您很重要，您应该创建一个 requirements.txt 文件来冻结依赖项列表，而不是依赖软件包的自动版本解析。
