[py-dev] py.test and twisted

[Ralf Schmitt]

Hi all,

I've made py.test work with the twisted framework using greenlets to switch
between twisted's mainloop and py.test's "mainloop". (see attached file).
It currently uses monkeypatching to change py.test.Item's execute function.
Currently missing is the ability to return twisted deferreds from setup and
teardown methods.
I could monkeypatch py.test even more, but I'd rather have a method to hook
into py.test, and intercept any calls to user supplied functions (i.e.
teardown, setup, and test methods). Any chance to get such changes
integrated into py.test? I'd be willing to write them on my own and would
also be glad to have the py.test.twisted script be included into py.test.
