nitpick (feel free to ignore): "[pytest] sections in ...." or "is supported"

[nicoddemus]

Done, thanks, it is better really.

while we are at it, we might want to support [tool:pytest] in tox.ini as well

Not sure @RonnyPfannschmidt... I consider supporting [tool:pytest] in setup.cfg more like a workaround a distutils/setuptools limitation than a feature. We don't have the same problems with tox.ini.

If we add the same support to tox.ini, it kind of follows that we should also support [tool:pytest] for pytest.ini files as well, and I'm not sure this is a good idea.

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

main reason im proposing it, is to set a stage - after all pytest.ini we own, but tox.ini is owned by tox and setup.cfg is owned by distutils

[nicoddemus]

I see. But perhaps we should do it in a separate issue/PR? It's just that I would not like to rush this in without some discussion, perhaps involving more people.

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

good point - the tox ini handling can be deffered to a later release in any case

[nicoddemus]

Anything else? Can we merge this?

[nicoddemus]

Thanks! 😁
