Describe-style plugin for py.test

pytest-describe is a plugin for py.test that allows tests to be written in arbitrary nested describe-blocks, similar to RSpec (Ruby) and Jasmine (JavaScript).

The main inspiration for this was a video by Gary Bernhardt.

Example

def describe_list():

    @pytest.fixture
    def list():
        return []

    def describe_append():

        def adds_to_end_of_list(list):
            list.append('foo')
            list.append('bar')
            assert list == ['foo', 'bar']

    def describe_remove():

        @pytest.fixture
        def list():
            return ['foo', 'bar']

        def removes_item_from_list(list):
            list.remove('foo')
            assert list == ['bar']
