Pexpect does support Python3 according to Pypi.

What is your OS? If Windows, then you should use pexpect.popen_spawn.PopenSpawn instead. More details here: https://pexpect.readthedocs.io/en/stable/overview.html#pexpect-on-windows

Pexpect has not been ported to python3, and apparently the author has no plans on doing so. I tried converting it with the python 2to3 program, but could not get it to work.

It looks like pexpect wasn't ported yet to python 3 (quite a late answer, but still usable for people googling here)
