I guess the point is that we don't need to reimplement things someone already has (and pytest is used quite a bit). Also, the minimum Python is 2.5 since after version 0.7.0 -- where did you get the impression that we still support 2.4? That should probably change, wherever it was written. > > Sympy's pytest is, as far as I know, a fork of the "official" pytest. > Is reverting to "official" pytest a realistic option?
