Do not run via setuptools
-------------------------
Integration with setuptools is **not recommended**,
i.e. you should not be using ``python setup.py test`` or ``pytest-runner``,
and may stop working in the future.
This is deprecated since it depends on deprecated features of setuptools
and relies on features that break security mechanisms in pip.
For example 'setup_requires' and 'tests_require' bypass ``pip --require-hashes``.
For more information and migration instructions,
see the `pytest-runner notice <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-runner#deprecation-notice>`_.
See also `pypa/setuptools#1684 <https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/1684>`_.
setuptools intends to
`remove the test command <https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/931>`_.
