Description

If you like Pytest for unit testing, but would like to use it at a larger scale, then this might be interesting to you. At its core it's comprised of a few base building blocks:

• Interfaces: API wrappers for REST, SSH, UI/Selenium, SOAP;
• Commands: procedural blocks containing API calls for one interface;
• Macros: "mini-apps" built on top of interfaces and commands.
