Created a draft PR to see what breaks pluggy. Curious if there is any goodies for pytest 8.0? We are still on <8.0.
#3786

Just to add another data point here. I was also tripped up by this when running vizro tests which use pytest and have kedro as a dependency.

[noklam]

@antonymilne the dependency is removed already. I think we may have accidentally pin pytest as core dependencies in some version, it should be test dependencies only.

@noklam the problem is with the kedro's dependence onpluggy, not the dependency on pytest. But it seems to be fixed here 🙂 #3840

[noklam]

@antonymilne Sorry I mean to say pluggy but yeah the pin was removed.

Before the new pluggy release it was necessary to pin it as test dependencies as it breaks certain API that we mock

Fixed by #3840 already
