pytest-subtesthack

A hack to explicitly set up and tear down fixtures.

This terrible plugin allows you to set up and tear down fixtures within the test function itself. This is useful (necessary!) for using Hypothesis inside py.test, as hypothesis will call the test function multiple times, without setting up or tearing down fixture state as is normally the case.

Installation:

pip install pytest-subtesthack

...though the plugin is 32 lines of code, consider vendoring it.

See test_example.py for usage.
