            _restore_class_methods(cls)

E           TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

setup:

platform linux -- Python 3.6.5, pytest-3.6.2, py-1.5.4, pluggy-0.6.0 -- /usr/local/bin/python
plugins: django-3.3.2, cov-2.5.1, celery-4.2.0

Think it's related to the upgrade:

pytest-django==3.3.0 -> 3.3.2
pytest==3.6.1 -> 3.6.2

EDIT: I test the down grade to pytest-django==3.3.0 and pytest==3.6.1 and the test runs fine.

It is caused by 8a526433a4c601a3e17ce0c90d231dd91a7e7b5b.

Used the following test:

class TestUnittestMethods:
    def test_setUpClass_new(self, django_testdir):
        django_testdir.create_test_module('''
            from django.test import testcases

            class BaseCMSTestCase:
                pass

            class CMSTestCase(BaseCMSTestCase, testcases.TestCase):
                pass

            class FooBarTestCase(testcases.TestCase):
                @classmethod
                def setUpClass(cls):
                    super().setUpClass()

            class TestContact(CMSTestCase, FooBarTestCase):

                def test_noop(self):
                    pass
        ''')

        result = django_testdir.runpytest_subprocess('-v')
        result.stdout.fnmatch_lines([
            "*test_noop PASSED*",
        ])
        assert result.ret == 0

I've looked into this further. I come to the simplified test code to reproduce the error:

from django.test import testcases
from cms.test_utils.testcases import CMSTestCase

class FooBarTestCase(testcases.TestCase):
    @classmethod
    def setUpClass(cls):
        super().setUpClass()

class TestContact(CMSTestCase, FooBarTestCase):

    def test_noop(self):
        print("OK?!?")
        return

I don't have time to investigate any further right now :(
