I am not quite sure about everything here. My guess is we can do whatever we want when it comes to our own tests, and I don't mind just switching everything to pytest (I for one am happy as long as I can run `runtests.py` ;)). When it comes to the utils we provide, those should keep working without nose/pytest if they worked before without it I think. My guess is that all your options do that, so I think we should take the one that gives the nicest maintainable code :). Though can't say I looked enough into it to really make a well educated decision, that probably means your option 2. - Sebastian > Thoughts? > Chuck > _______________________________________________ > NumPy-Discussion mailing list > NumPy-Discussion@python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
