Python 3.13.0 beta 1 crashes

[kurtmckee]

Describe the bug

When pyfakefs is loaded via the pytest plugin on Python 3.13.0 beta 1, I'm seeing crashes.

Note

I've confirmed this behavior with pyfakefs 5.5.0, 5.4.1, and 5.3.0, and with pytest 8.2.0 and 8.0.0.
However, this does not happen with Python 3.12.

It appears that this is specific to Python 3.13.0 beta 1.

How To Reproduce

Create a file named test_demo.py with these contents:

def test_pyfakefs(fs):
    pass

Create a virtual environment using Python 3.13:

$ python3.13 -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install pytest pyfakefs
$
$ # At the time of writing, these packages are installed:
$ pip freeze
iniconfig==2.0.0
packaging==24.0
pluggy==1.5.0
pyfakefs==5.5.0
pytest==8.2.0

Then, run this command to see the failure:

pytest test_demo.py

Your environment

With the virtual environment (created using the steps above) activated, here are the OS/Python/pyfakefs/pytest versions installed:

Linux-6.5.0-28-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35
Python 3.13.0b1 (main, May  9 2024, 19:41:45) [GCC 11.4.0]
pyfakefs 5.5.0
pytest 8.2.0

Thanks! I hadn't tested with 3.13 yet, but it was on my to-do list.
Note that official pyfakefs support for 3.13 will not be added before the official Python release, as this is a moving target - for 3.12 they changed the pathlib implementation twice during the alpha/beta phases. I'm going to add tests and preliminary support though, now that the beta 1 is out - hopefully soon.

official pyfakefs support for 3.13 will not be added before the official Python release

That matches my own support ideals. I try to test my projects against Python pre-releases as an early flag for potential issues, and pyfakefs was working just fine two weeks ago on 3.13.0 alpha 6, so this is related to something changed in 3.13.0 beta 1.

Thanks for the quick response! ❤️

[mrbean-bremen]

Just FYI: I'll wait for the beta 2 to get out, as the beta 1 does not work under non-Englisch Windows systems (which I have). This is fixed now, and will be released with the next beta.

[kurtmckee]

Sounds good! Thank you!

I just run the tests with python 3.13.0 beta2 and this is the result:

The log continues with a lot of more tracebacks.

[mrbean-bremen]

Yes, I'm on it, but it may take a bit. I'm still not done with the pathlib changes.

[arkamar]

Great, thanks! I just wanted to share the output if I have it. Maybe also for others to let them know that the issue appears with beta 2 as well.

[mrbean-bremen]

Should work for Beta2 in main now.
This is not the final version - there is a workaround for an issue that may be related to a bug in the beta2, and another workaround that will be reworked with #1025, and some probable peformance issue, but I will wait for a release closer to the final release before working on these.

I will probably make a new release after #1025 has been finished and merged.
