Hehe, sorry for the top post, work computer. I did actually try searching 
conftest.py on Github, but there were altogether too many results :) Didn't 
seem like there was a solid sorting mechanism either.

The Mozilla tests are particularly interesting because they use Python to test 
non-Python codebases, which is a major area of interest in the increasingly 
diverse PayPal engineering community. Those sorts of py.test conventions really 
resonate for the corporate/product types :) Also, small note, I'd probably 
update the Projects page link to the Mozilla Github so the code is more readily 
showcased. Otherwise, the Projects page is fantastic :)

Hope to hear more soon!

Mahmoud

I'd also be interested in hearing back!  
http://pytest.org/latest/projects.html hasn't been updated for a while either 
FWIW.

If there is some kind of github/bitbucket/code search engine maybe that could 
be used to automatically discover pytest using projects and sort them according 
to size or so?  If somebody is willing to try that, that'd simplify 
communication i guess :)
