The aiida-testing pytest plugin

A pytest plugin to simplify testing of AiiDA plugins. It implements fixtures to cache the execution of codes:

• mock_code: Caches at the level of the code executable. Use this for testing calculation and parser plugins, because input file generation and output parsing are also being tested.

• export_cache: Uses the AiiDA caching feature, in combination with an automatic database export / import. Use this to test high-level workflows.

aiida-testing is available at http://github.com/aiidateam/aiida-testing
