   I guess it is a bit of a tricky one. For building astropy, there doesn't seem much reason to stick to the same 2 year timeline one has for dependencies needed to run astropy. But testing maybe is a little different (and certainly was, when we could do astropy.test()).
   Maybe we should just go with raising the minimum to pytest>=8.0 for astropy 8.0 - almost 2 years and a major release.
