+The test infrastructure has been updated to stop using
+the ``pytest-forked`` plugin
+-- by :user:`jaraco` and :user:`webknjaz`.
+
+This plugin was causing problems with upgrading to modern
+versions of Pytest and it is not going to be fixed anytime
+soon.
+
+It was used in a test that interacts with the system
+resource limits under \*NIX environments in hopes to isolate
+the side effects caused by the preparatory code.
+
+It is possible that this will have an effect on the test
+sessions and we may have to look for alternative solutions
+for test process isolation.
