Expected behavior

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install matplotlib >= 3.9
2. Run a single test in debug mode

Scott Shambaugh (@scottshambaugh), yes, it appears that matplotlib has deprecated interactive_bk see this pr.

The workaround from what i can tell is to use

from matplotlib.backends.backend_registry import list_builtin, BackendFilter
interactive_backends = list_builtin(BackendFilter.INTERACTIVE) 

Hope this helps, if not, please reopen and more info.

thanks

Hi, what other information are you looking for? It seems like the file that needs to change is /vscode-server/extensions/ms-python.debugpy-2024.7.11591012/bundled/libs/debugpy/_vendored/pydevd/pydev_ipython/matplotlibtools.py, not something users should have to handle on their end.

I do not have permissions to reopen the issue but would like it kept open until resolved please.

When using poetry, I was able to work around this with the suggestion in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-73280/MatplotlibDeprecationWarning-The-interactivebk-attribute-was-deprecated-emitted-using-Pytest-test-runner#focus=Comments-27-9925093.0-0
