pytest-cython 0.4.0rc1

A plugin for testing Cython extension modules.

Overview

This pytest plugin allows for the doctesting of C/C++ extension modules for Python created through cython.

Installation

You can install pytest-cython via pip from PyPI:

pip install pytest-cython

Usage

Basic usage:

pytest --doctest-cython

You can also run the doctests for a single .pyx file as such:

pytest --doctest-cython path/to/module.pyx

Notes

• The pytest option --import-mode=importlib is not supported, though we would like it to be.
• When using the pytest option --import-mode=prepend with packages that are installed in a non-editable fashion, you must set the environment variable PY_IGNORE_IMPORTMISMATCH=1.
