Unable to run tests with new pytest (4.1.0)

[dahorak]

Last pytest update (to version 4.1.0) breaks execution of any test from usmqe-tests repo:

./pytest_cli.py --color=yes --junit-xml=logs/result.xml -vvvrx usmqe_tests/api/others -m testready -k '' -o junit_suite_name=gluster-arbiter-disperse
ImportError while loading conftest '/var/lib/jenkins/workspace/tendrl-3-ci-usm2-tests-others-api/usmqe-tests/usmqe_tests/conftest.py'.

With pytest 4.0.2, it works correctly.

When fixing this issue, workaround introduced in PR #228 should be removed.

It seems to be related to:
Removed the implementation of the pytest_namespace hook.[1]
in changelog[2].

Some more information about required code update[3].

Hmm, the hook is deprecated since pytest 3.7.0 (2018-07-30).
