So I did some more digging... some observations:
1. The segfaults I'm running into are all in pytest's collection phase.
2. After a bunch of messing around I found two segfaults:
- In settings.py, setting shortcuts when creating a new Settings
object
- In icons.py, getting the palette when creating a new UiIcons object
3. Both segfaults are due to no QApplication object existing at the
time.
From this I can surmise that when collecting tests, pytest somehow runs
the test methods, but doesn't run setUp or tearDown. Another reason to
move to pytest fixtures, I guess.
With some defensive programming techniques in those two classes, I was
able to get past collection. I re-enabled the application tests, and now
I'm running into a segfault there, but it's at least further than I was
previously getting.
Additionally, I removed the "global" QApplication object, and I
introduced a "teardown_application()" to remove the app object.
I've pushed this code up to here, if anyone is interested:
