It wont work that way, py.test is not based on the unittest interfaces, thats the only thing setuptools supports. The execnet package has code that shows how this could work, by supplying a new test command class instead. Take a look if http://bitbucket.org/hpk42/execnet/src/tip/setup.py#cl-67 might fiy your needs. Maybe this should be extended and included in py.test or tox. -- Ronny _______________________________________________ py-dev mailing list py-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/py-dev
