  • Select pytest versions based on the Python runtime: pytest 8.x for
    Python 3.9 and pytest 9+ for Python 3.10 and newer.
  • Install CI test and lint dependencies from pyproject.toml, and remove
    the duplicate requirements-travis.txt.
  • Drop Python 3.8 support and add Python 3.14 to the supported classifiers
    and Black targets.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Compatibility
    • The package now requires Python 3.9 or newer. Python 3.8 is no longer supported, and Python 3.14 is now listed as supported.

pytest 9 requires Python 3.10+, so it cannot resolve on Python 3.9.
Use environment markers to select pytest 8.x below Python 3.10 and
pytest 9+ on Python 3.10 and newer.

Install test and lint extras from pyproject.toml in CI and remove the
duplicate requirements-travis.txt file.

Drop Python 3.8 support by raising requires-python to >=3.9 and remove
the Python 3.8 classifier and Black target.
Add Python 3.14 to classifiers and Black target versions.

Use pytest 8.4+ on Python 3.9 and pytest 9+ on Python 3.10 and newer.

Walkthrough

The project now requires Python 3.9 or newer and updates its Python classifiers and Black targets. The test extra selects pytest versions based on the Python version. CI installs the package with its test and lint extras. The pinned requirements-travis.txt file is removed.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: Low · up to e0324

The compatibility update is mergeable with bounded follow-up: add Python 3.9 to CI to validate its separate pytest requirement.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "Fix/pytest python compatibility" matches the main change. The PR selects the pytest version by Python runtime: pytest 8.4 or newer below Python 3.10, and pytest 9 or newer on Python 3.10 and later. The title names the pytest and Python compatibility issue. It does not mention the other changes, such as the CI install change, the removal of requirements-travis.txt, the drop of Python 3.8, or the addition of Python 3.14. Those details are expected to be omitted from a short title.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No eligible functions found in the changed files. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 0 functions across 0 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Before this change, uv sync failed to resolve dependencies: the project
declared support for Python 3.8+, but pytest>=9.0.3 requires Python 3.10+.
Since uv resolves dependencies across the project's supported Python
versions, resolution failed for Python 3.9.

The updated pytest markers select a compatible pytest version for each
Python range, and the project now declares Python 3.9 as its minimum.

Add Python 3.9 to the selftests matrix so the pytest 8.x pin is installed and tested.

The selftests matrix contains only 3.x. That value resolves to the newest 3.x release. The python_version < '3.10' pytest pin is therefore never installed or tested in CI. Add "3.9" to the matrix so that pip install '.[test,lint]' and make check run on Python 3.9.

Suggested fix
       matrix:
-        python-version: [3.x]
+        python-version: ["3.9", "3.x"]

test and lint installation and make check run with Python 3.9 and exercise the
