Hi.
I'd like to update pytest as soon as possible to 4.3 (or 4.4 if agreed
upon).
This update will bring a lot of small breakage (long deprecated stuff got
removed), but it is needed for Python 3.8 support. And I'd rather deal with
this
breakage now than firefighting it in the 3.8 side tag in May/June.
Thoughts?

How many of these small breakages do you expect?
The amount of bugs blocking this at this point (incl. CLOSED, excluding pacage
reviews is 7:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=1671167&hide_resolved=0
I've built cca 250 packages in my Python 3.8 + pytest 4 Copr.
Cca 90 from them use pytest (based on a quick dirty grep).
This is not a very good statistics but let's say that if we predict this to 3662
Python packages tracked on portingdb and/or 440 packages buildrequiring pytest,
we can except 35-100 failed builds.
Will they mainly affect old unmaintained packages?
No, this already affects e.g. pip.
Problem is that a lot of upstreams pin pytest to a specific version.
Will these breakages be easy to solve in your opinion?
Half of the problems so far was trivial (e.g. renaming a setup.cfg section).
Others might be harder. I can offer help. Worst case, tests can be temporarily
skipped.
