- nose-style doctests are not collected and executed correctly,
also doctest fixtures don't work.
- no nose-configuration is recognized
- no nose-configuration is recognized.
- ``yield``-based methods don't support ``setup`` properly because
the ``setup`` method is always called in the same class instance.
There are no plans to fix this currently because ``yield``-tests
are deprecated in pytest 3.0, with ``pytest.mark.parametrize``
being the recommended alternative.
