- `auto-discovery
<http://pytest.org/latest/goodpractises.html#python-test-discovery>`_
of test modules and functions,
- detailed info on failing `assert statements <http://pytest.org/latest/assert.html> `_ (no need to remember `` self.assert* `` names)
- `modular fixtures <http://pytest.org/latest/fixture.html> `_ for
managing small or parametrized long-lived test resources.
- multi-paradigm support: you can use `` py.test `` to run test suites based
on `unittest <http://pytest.org/latest/unittest.html> `_ (or trial),
`nose <http://pytest.org/latest/nose.html> `_
- single-source compatibility to Python2.4 all the way up to Python3.3,
PyPy-1.9 and Jython-2.5.1.
- many `external plugins <http://pytest.org/latest/plugins.html#installing-external-plugins-searching> `_ .

A simple example for a test::
# content of test_module.py
def test_function():
i = 4
assert i == 3
which can be run with `` py.test test_module.py `` . See `getting-started <http://pytest.org/latest/getting-started.html#our-first-test-run> `_ for more examples.
