With Pytest 6.0.2 'make tests' fails:
sandbox: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./test/py/test.py", line 20, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('pytest', 'console_scripts', 'pytest')(args)) TypeError: console_main() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given
The definition of console_scripts has changed as follows:
Pytest 4.6.1:
[options.entry_points] console_scripts = pytest=pytest:main py.test=pytest:main
Pytest 6.0.2:
[options.entry_points] console_scripts = pytest=pytest:console_main py.test=pytest:console_main
The new function console_main() has a comment: "This function is not meant for programmable use; use `main()`"
Hence let's call pytest.main() directly. Move args processing into the __main__ paragraph.

So the last round of "newer pytest means we need to ..." was part of why we have test/py/requirements.txt right now. That was over a year ago. So, for after v2021.04 it would be good to update pytest to current and deal with any updating that needs updating in our tests and related code. Thanks!
This patch is not about making new requirements. It is about increasing the compatibility of our Python script with a larger range of Pytest revisions.
So I do not see the show-stopper for the current release.
I bring up the last time because we support using "pip install -r test/py/requirements.txt" as how to create the supported test environment. This is based on my understanding of the time of the best practices of dealing with python modules.
As you have read in the replies to that discussion it is not only me who due to security considerations will not run pip on his private computer but wants to use the packages from the distro.
This patch does not break anything. Hence I would appreciate if you could consider it for inclusion.
This does not stop you or Gitlab to use pip with your favorite Pytest version.
Best regards
