I don't think that pyfakefs will fit that - PyCQA is about formatting / quality tools, while pyfakefs is a testing tool (both for pytest and unittest).

And I agree about having too many orgs - as far as I can see, pytest-dev is currently the only organization concerned with Python testing (there is nose-dev, but it only has nose and nose2). With the current state, I would still say that pyfakefs fits best with pytest-dev. A more general organization concerned with Python testing would only make sense, if there are some relevant repositories that would go into this - I just don't know the goal and the potential repos for Cogs of testing (I like the name, though :).

Why not reusing existing
https://github.com/PyCQA <https://github.com/PyCQA> for that? I am personally concerned about having too many orgs. One or two years ago we moved the doc8 tool from under opendev/openstack in order to make it easier to maintain.

Its main goal seems to fit the repo quite well.

    Hi,

    Thank you - I agree that pyfakefs is not a 100% fit, thus this mail
    instead of a formal request for transfer. I asked Bruno Oliviera (who
    helped with the pytest-order transfer) if he sees this as a
    possibility
    before writing this mail. I also had been searching for an
    organization
    related to general Python testing, but obviously didn't find one.

    Cogs of testing sounds interesting - was this meant for Python
    testing,
    or general testing? Are there other libraries that you would see
    there?
    Maybe there is a related thread or post you can refer me to...

    If the Cogs of testing organization can be brought to live, this
    may be
    an alternative, I just don't know how realistic this is. The main
    goal
    of the proposed transfer is indeed continued maintenance, and
    decreasing
    the bus factor.  Still undecided myself...

    Cheers
