Hey there,

I don’t mind adding a dependency as long as there is a need for it. +1

The problem I see with ‘attrs’ as it stands today, is that it does not support 
Python 2.6 whereas pytest does. So we probably want to get 
https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1273 
<https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1273> in before adding ‘attrs’ as 
a dependency. I’m not up-to-date with how things are in pip as to dropping 
Python 2.6 compatibility. I can’t seem to find a ticket on the pip issue 
tracker.

Best,
Raphael
