+# handle testing with pytest
+#
+# Feature:	pytest
+# Usage:	USES=pytest[:4]
+#
+# It implies USES=python:build automatically if no USES=python has been
+# specified yet
+#
+# It provides the following additional variables:
+#
+# PYTEST_ARGS		additional args to pytest (defaults to empty).
+# PYTEST_IGNORED_TESTS	lists of `pytest -k` patterns of tests to ignore
+# 			(defaults to empty).
+# PYTEST_FAILING_TESTS	lists of `pytest -k` patterns of tests to ignore
+# 			(defaults to empty). Works exactly the same way as
+# 			PYTEST_IGNORED_TESTS, but conveys that the listed
+# 			tests are not expected to fail and should be fixed
