• [x] coverage decrease is unexpected, needs investigation

• [x] coverage decrease is unexpected, needs investigation

pytest-cov only works in editable mode: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/388

So force-pushed:

• re-added the -e in pip install -e .[dev] in GitHub actions workflow to collect coverage correctly
• fixed typo in a commit message

[Bastian-Krause]

Force-pushed:

• rebased on master
• fixed typos in commit messages
• dropped unnecessary pip install statements from the CI workflow and documentation
• extended commit message with https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/4145
• re-add/update documentation/warning in case other pyserial version than https://github.com/labgrid-project/pyserial/releases/tag/v3.5.0.1 are used (maybe we should allow the previous v3.4.0.1 version for non-pip installs as well?)

[Bastian-Krause]

Rebased.

Discussed this @Bastian-Krause: As the installation time of 1-2 hours in CI is not acceptable, we should split the move to pyproject.toml from the dependency version changes. Also, we should avoid self-dependencies in the extras, as the failure mode of older pip versions (such as the one in debian stable) in this case is very confusing.

[Bastian-Krause]

Force-pushed:

• rebased
• dropped dependency version bumps
• dropped dependency version relaxations, use pinned versions instead (like we did before)
• dropped tox workarounds to force new pip
• dropped commit: crossbar: config: set user_timeout in default config (since we don't bump crossbar's version)
• dropped release doc adjustment regarding dependency version relaxations
• added commit: tox: pass TERM environment variable to test env
• added commit: debian: use recent pip, drop obsolete setuptools requirement
• quoted pip installs with extras in the docs (due to square brackets)

Hm, this seems to break coverage. No idea why, yet.

Edit: coverage is also broken on master, so that's unrelated.

It worked in https://github.com/labgrid-project/labgrid/actions/runs/3345404124/jobs/5540884396, so perhaps the update to pytest-cov-4.0.0 fixed it.

Rebased (due to previous conflicts caused by #1032).

Thanks a lot!
