Hi Vinicius, My attempt to make Astropy test working failed as well. the project heavily depends on TOX which requires pip to install missing dependencies for itself. I run test with pytest but it looks like it's not allowed by this https://github.com/astropy/astropy/blob/main/astropy/__init__.py#L139 I'll come back to conquer it once again when I have some fresh ideas.
