Pytest Helpers Namespace
========================

This plugin does not provide any helpers to `pytest`_, it does, however,
provide a helpers namespace in `pytest`_ which enables you to register helper
functions in your ``conftest.py`` to be used within your tests without having
to import them.

Features
--------

* Provides a ``helpers`` `pytest`_ namespace which can be used to register
helper functions without requiring you to import them on your actual tests to
use them.

Requirements
------------

* None!

Installation
------------

You can install "pytest-helpers-namespace" via `pip`_ from `PyPI`_::

$ pip install pytest-helpers-namespace

Usage
-----

Consider the following ``conftest.py`` file:

.. code-block:: python

import pytest

@pytest.helpers.register
def foo(bar):
"""
this dumb helper function will just return what you pass to it
"""
return bar

And now consider the following test case:

.. code-block:: python

def test_helper_namespace():
assert pytest.helpers.foo(True) is True

Pretty simple right?!

You can even nest namespaces. Consider the following ``conftest.py`` file:

.. code-block:: python

pytest_plugins = ["helpers_namespace"]

import pytest

@pytest.helpers.can.haz.register
def foo(bar):
"""
this dumb helper function will just return what you pass to it
"""
return bar

And now consider the following test case:

.. code-block:: python

def test_helper_namespace():
assert pytest.helpers.can.haz.foo(True) is True

You can even pass a name to the register function and that will be the helper function name.
