setuptools.command.test deprecated (is now a stub)

package now fails to build because setuptools.command.test became a stub to serve as a softer but still forceful deprecation notice, see pypa/setuptools#4522 pypa/setuptools#4519 pypa/setuptools#4520

Thanks, reading those summaries, my understanding is that v72.0.0 of setuptools is yanked and this package is installable with 72.1.0. The new due date for removing is 15 Dec 2024, see pypa/setuptools#4522 <pypa/setuptools#4522>. Given that, we should do this, but it's not super urgent.

The stub refers to 72.1.0. The error here becomes an ImportError on _normalize_path rather than an outright not found on setuptools.command.test, so building still fails.

[vishwin]

Still fails on 72.2.0.

[phillbaker]

Can you share the command you’re running that fails and the error?

In this case setup.py config, but literally any setup.py invocation will fail in the same manner, simply because the referenced code exists.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "setup.py", line 509, in <module>
    from setuptools.command.test import (normalize_path as _normalize_path,
ImportError: cannot import name 'normalize_path' from 'setuptools.command.test' (/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools/command/test.py)

The entire testing "framework" in setup.py needs removed in order to fix this. pytest et al can and should be invoked outside of setuptools anyway.
