The nose testing library used in ffq is no longer maintained and was last updated in 2015. It doesn't work with Python 3.10 with an issue that will not be fixed.

It looks like most people have switched to pytest, and there's even an automated tool to help the conversion: nose2pytest. Is this something that would be of interest?

Ah, looks like pytest even has support for running nose tests out of the box: https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.1.x/how-to/nose.html#noseintegration

We have migrated over to pytest with the help of @lauraluebbert. See #36
