Following #21 and associated fix in #22 to accommodate a Python 2.7 behavior, I started thinking about when this plugin should stop supporting Python 2.7 / 3.4

According to the https://pythonclock.org/ , support ends at the end of 2019.

pytest has started warning about deprecation:

You are using Python 2.7.15, which will no longer be supported in pytest 5.0

pytest 5.0 is scheduled for sometime mid-2019 - after which the pytest 4.x branch will continue to be supported until mid-2020.

Please use this issue to discuss your use cases and expectations for longer-term support if you're looking for those versions to be supported beyond the runtime and test framework's lifetime.

Today I learned of this nice visual representation of the lifecycle: https://python-release-cycle.glitch.me/
So I think it's safe to consider that support for 2.7 and 3.4 can be removed any time now.

The 3.4 has been dropped by many projects since April. The 2.7 better to drop after 01.01.2020.

Today I noticed that Python 3.4 no longer works with pip version 20.x and fails the Appveyor build.

Things I'm going to consider:

  • Migrate from TravisCI & AppVeyor to GitHub Actions for Linux, Windows, and add Mac
  • Drop support for Python 2.7, 3.4 (3.4 hit EOL over a year ago)
  • Remove tox from the equation and use the base pytest command
  • Add test support for Python 3.8, maybe 3.9, maybe pypy (See pypy3 hangs on threading #20 )
  • Convert project to use poetry for build/release tooling - no impact to end users

After a few of these things are done, I'll close out this issue, and get back to triage/testing the rest of the open issues.
