Why

• PER-8520: `Appium-Python-Client` was unpinned in `requirements.txt` and `setup.py`, so CI and downstream installs adopt any future release, including breaking or compromised ones.
• PER-8523: `Cache.CACHE` is a class-level dict shared across threads. `set_cache` does an unguarded read-modify-write and `cleanup_cache` iterates then pops, so parallel screenshot calls can hit `RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration` or lose fresh entries.

What

• `requirements.txt`, `setup.py` (`install_requires`, `tests_require`): `Appium-Python-Client>=2.1.0,<7`. 2.1.0 is the first release that ships `appium.webdriver.common.appiumby`, which the SDK imports at load time, so no currently working version is excluded. Latest is 6.x.
• `percy/lib/cache.py`: class-level `threading.RLock` held for the full body of `set_cache`, `get_cache` and `cleanup_cache` (reentrant because `get_cache` calls `cleanup_cache`). No behaviour change.
• Version package left untouched; workflows untouched.

Verification

• New `tests/test_requirements.py`: specifiers in `setup.py` and `requirements.txt` match and are bounded (fails on master).
• New `tests/test_cache.py` race test: a writer runs mid-iteration of `cleanup_cache`. Fails on master with `RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration`, passes with the lock. Plus a no-deadlock test for the reentrant path.
• Docker (python:3.11-slim, clone mounted): 168 tests OK, coverage 100%, pylint 10/10.

Tickets: PER-8520, PER-8523

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved cache reliability during concurrent access. Reads, updates, and cleanup are synchronized to help prevent errors or lost entries when operations overlap and keep lookups responsive.
• Compatibility
  • Appium Python Client versions are now constrained to the supported range of 2.1.0 through versions before 7. The installation and test requirements use the same range.

Walkthrough

Cache operations now use a class-level reentrant lock for writes, reads, and cleanup. The Appium-Python-Client requirement is bounded in package and test dependencies, and tests verify that the declarations match.

Changes: Cache Synchronization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Lock cache operations and test concurrency percy/lib/cache.py, tests/test_cache.py	Cache writes, reads, and cleanup use a class-level reentrant lock. Tests cover concurrent cleanup and cache set/get completion in a child process.

Appium Requirement Bounds

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Bound and verify the Appium requirement requirements.txt, setup.py, tests/test_requirements.py	The Appium-Python-Client requirement is now >=2.1.0,<7 in both dependency declarations. A test compares the declarations and checks for both bounds.

Priority: Normal

Merge Risk: Low · up to 6d9f0

The change is low risk, but the consistency test should also verify tests_require before merge.

Review comments at @setup.py:
- Line 25: Align the `python_requires` constraint in setup.py with the minimum
Python version supported by the Appium dependency bound. Either preserve Python
3.6 by using a compatible dependency path, or raise the minimum and update the
Python version classifiers and documentation consistently.

Review comments at @tests/test_cache.py:
- Line 63: Update the concurrent cache-cleanup test to synchronize the writer at
its pre-lock checkpoint with a signal, then call cleanup_cache() and join the
writer only after cleanup returns. Do not wait for writer completion while
cleanup holds _lock, so the test verifies concurrent mutation without
deadlocking the correctly locked implementation.
- Line 83: Update test_get_cache_does_not_deadlock to run the get_cache check in
an isolated child process with a timeout; if it times out, terminate and reap
the child before failing the test. Avoid using a thread that could leave the
shared Cache lock blocked and affect later tests.

Follow-up Comments

Inspect testsrequire in the consistency test.

15-37: Trivial · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Inspect tests_require in the consistency test.

_setup_py_requirement() reads only install_requires. If tests_require later uses a different Appium-Python-Client bound, make coverage can still pass because the test compares only install_requires with requirements.txt.

Add a second extraction and assertion for tests_require.

Update _setup_py_requirement to extract the Appium-Python-Client requirement

test_appium_client_is_bounded_and_consistent to compare both install_requires
