Installation Instructions#

If you want to experiment with testfixtures, the easiest way to install it is to do the following in a virtualenv:

pip install testfixtures

If you are using conda, testfixtures can be installed as follows:

conda install -c conda-forge testfixtures

If your package uses setuptools and you decide to use testfixtures, then you should do one of the following:

  • Specify testfixtures in the tests_require parameter of your package’s call to setup in setup.py.

  • Add an extra_requires parameter in your call to setup as follows:

    setup(
        # other stuff here
        extras_require=dict(
            test=['testfixtures'],
        )
    )
