Motivation:

  • pytest is stable, extensible, popular etc etc
  • last nose release was on Jun 2, 2015

Notes:

  • pytest runs unittest.TestCase wo modifications
  • pytest is also available in travis env by default

@faif (or other maintainers) what do you think?

I think that it's a good idea. I like pytest and it seems that this is the current goto platform for unit testing in Python
