fix

Use Python 2.7 or switch to pytest.

deprecated nose-xunitmp is unmaintained and works only with Python 2.7. Python 3 is not supported. ↓

fix Migrate to pytest with pytest-xdist which supports xunit output natively.

gotcha When using with nose's multiprocess plugin, the xunitmp plugin may produce incomplete results due to race conditions in output collection. ↓

fix Use a single-process runner or switch to pytest.

breaking The plugin does not support Python 3. Installation on Python 3 will fail due to syntax errors in the source. ↓
