I looked at this recently for pytest-doctestplus. The lazy answer is to run the full test suite in an autopkgtest, not at build time. pytest also has a mechanism to register plugins through an environment variable, but I couldn't figure out how to get the test suite to work with that. If you do find a nice mechanism, we should probably apply it to the packaging of all pytest plugins. SR -- Stefano Rivera http://tumbleweed.org.za/ +1 415 683 3272
