If you need some files from source directory during tests, please list them in debian/pybuild.testfiles file and pybuild will copy them to build directory (and remove after tests).

Thanks, Scott [1] https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/modules/pytest-xdist/blob/debian/master/debian/rules#L12 Hi! Conceptually I think it's more relevant to override dh_auto_test. To make sure pytest will register the plugin one may tweak the $PYTHONPATH. That's the approach I followed in pytest-flask, see [1]. Not sure if this is a workaround too though :) Cheers, Alex [1] https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/modules/pytest-flask/blob/debian/master/debian/rules
pybuild and testing pytest plugins
When packaging a pytest plugin and wanting to run the plugin's unit tests during the build process, the plugin usually has to be installed before running the tests, otherwise pytest cannot find the plugin. This seems to require workarounds such as this [1]. Is there any way to avoid this with pybuild or is such a workaround really necessary?
