Mechanical fix/workaround for `tests/tools/pyroma/test_pyroma_tool.py`
Description
This PR provides a mechanical fix/workaround (ie not a fix at the root cause, please see below for reasoning) for the failed test
Testing steps
- tested locally (on my machine) following the test steps from the Github Action (GA) workflow: result: 100% pass rate
- tested on GA via my personal fork: I replicated the test failure one can see on the main
master
Clues: the files.files are identical on both machines; the messages indeed differ by two elements:
- Files and messages on local machine:
[PosixPath('/home/valeriu/prospector-fork/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/__init__.py'), PosixPath('/home/valeriu/prospector-fork/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/this_one_is_fine/setup.py'), PosixPath('/home/valeriu/prospector-fork/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/this_one_is_fine/__init__.py')]
[pyroma-PYR05, pyroma-PYR06, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR09, pyroma-PYR12, pyroma-PYR05, pyroma-PYR06, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR09, pyroma-PYR12]
- Files and messages on GA machine:
[PosixPath('/home/runner/work/prospector/prospector/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/__init__.py'), PosixPath('/home/runner/work/prospector/prospector/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/this_one_is_fine/__init__.py'), PosixPath('/home/runner/work/prospector/prospector/tests/tools/pyroma/testdata/pkg1/this_one_is_fine/setup.py')]
[pyroma-PYR05, pyroma-PYR06, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR09, pyroma-PYR12, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR05, pyroma-PYR06, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR09, pyroma-PYR12, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN]
As you can see, the GA results include two additional pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN members in the messages list. My theory is that the setup.py file gets a little bit altered (trailing space character, newline character etc - could be anything non-major - something minor) which gives differing results at the point of pyroma run. File system peculiarities, I reckon.
PS: I've kept the change to the GA workflow file for possible further testing, I'll remove that if this will get merged. Cheers, fellas :beer:
Related Issue
This failing test needs be fixed so we can get #645 in and consequently release a version that supports Python 3.12

Thank you for your work @valeriupredoi. I don't have enough knowledge of prospector to review that, sorry.
@Pierre-Sassoulas not a problem at all, mate. Can any other of the prospector core devs review maybe? :beer:
@carlio would you mind reviewing this to unblock python 3.12 support down the line, please ? :)
am just a bit worried that @carlio 's been off GH scope for many months, do hope he's on a nice sabbatical/holiday :+1:
@valeriupredoi @Pierre-Sassoulas Forgive me if I am about to say something stupid, i am sailing uncharted water here, but:
Shouldn't this simply be a case of getting the unique values for messages, in this case with a len of 5 (pyroma-PYR05, pyroma-PYR06, pyroma-PYRUNKNOWN, pyroma-PYR09, pyroma-PYR12), and thus satisfying execution in any context?
If order is irrelevant (which i feel it is), messages could be converted into a set and back to a list, assert the len and continue with the iteration.
Thoughts?
Thoughts?
I'm starting to think that this test possibly being invalid is not as impactful than prospector still not being available for python 3.12 / pylint 3.0. (And the numerous CVE it contains from some outdated dependencies)
