Crash on macOs Sonoma

[zoltanszocs]

Hi!

We have been using Pytest-qt for a long time now and we did not have any issues until now. However, after upgrading to macOs Sonoma, I get random crashes during test execution, and the last call is always inside pytestqt. My colleagues executing the same tests on macOs Ventura do not get these crashes. I tried adding an autouse fixture to close all open top level windows, but it did not help. I see it closes several windows, but I still get the crash.

I get tracebacks like this:

Any ideas? I can not reproduce the crash with a single testcase, it only crashes when running the whole suite, and not always at the same place.

Sorry, I have no suggestions at the moment to give here. Those type of crashes (happen randomly and only when running the full suite) are the worst to debug. 😕

Do you have any experience with macOs Sonoma? Does it work for others?

None, sorry.

Does it work for others?

We test with macos-latest on CI, FWIW.
