pytest-doctest-ellipsis-markers

Setup additional values for ELLIPSIS_MARKER for doctests

---

This Pytest plugin was generated with Cookiecutter along with @hackebrot's Cookiecutter-pytest-plugin template.

Features

Doctest has problems with matching default ELLIPSIS_MARKER at the begging of line and interprets them as line continuation characters and not as ellipsis for the output. The easy way was to use `# doctest: +SKIP`:

>>> u'Tanie dranie niesłychanie' # doctest: +SKIP
...

Without SKIP it would not work. But then the statement is not tested :(

This plugin cant extend ELLIPSIS_MARKER mathing a little without actually changing the default ELLIPSIS_MARKER value:

>>> u'Adios pomidory'
'...'
