Meta-package containing dependencies for testing
.. image:: https://zenodo.org/badge/104255122.svg :target: https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/104255122 :alt: Zenodo DOI
This is a meta-package that pulls in the dependencies that are used by
astropy_ and some affiliated packages_ for testing. It can also be used for
testing packages that are not affiliated with the Astropy project.
This package also provides pytest markers for cpu and memory intensive tests
(pytest.mark.slow and pytest.mark.hugemem). Tests marked with those
markers are not run by default, can be run with the other tests with
--run-slow and --run-hugemem, and can be run separately with -m slow
and -m hugemem.
The package also provides the short option -R for --remote-data.
