Here is an example that shows how fixtup makes it easier to test a function that generate a thumbnail.

def test_thumbnail_should_generate_thumbnail(self):

    # Magic happens with the instruction fixtup.up
    with fixtup.up('thumbnail_context') as f:
        # Given
        wd = os.getcwd()
        original_file = os.directory.join(wd, 'file.png')
        expected_thumbnail_file = os.directory.join(wd, 'file_t.png')

        # Then
        thumbnail(original_file, expected_thumbnail_file)

        # Then
        self.assertTrue(os.directory.isfile(expected_thumbnail_file)
