Maybe some defensive coding around fix random seed?

eg.
try:
numpy.random.seed(seed)
except ValueError:
numpy.random.seed(0)

Thanks for this. I'm travelling at the moment but I'll be doing a round of maintenance next week.

pytest randomly updated their code to use numpy.random.seed(seed % 2**32) instead of just seed. Probably better than to seed with 0
