+# handle testing with pytest
+#
+# Feature:	pytest
+# Usage:	USES=pytest[:4]
+#
+# It implies USES=python:test automatically if no USES=python has been
+# specified yet
+#
+# It provides the following additional variables to set by the ports:
+#
+# PYTEST_ARGS		additional args to pytest (defaults to empty).
+# PYTEST_IGNORED_TESTS	lists of `pytest -k` patterns of tests to ignore
+# 			(defaults to empty). For tests which are not
+#			expected to pass, such as ones requiring a database
+#			access.
+# PYTEST_BROKEN_TESTS	lists of `pytest -k` patterns of tests to ignore
+# 			(defaults to empty). For broken tests which require
+#			fixing.
+#
+# The following variables may be set by the user:
+#
+# PYTEST_ENABLE_IGNORED_TESTS	enable tests which are otherwise ignored by
+#				PYTEST_IGNORED_TESTS.
+# PYTEST_ENABLE_BROKEN_TESTS	enable tests which are otherwise ignored by
+#				PYTEST_BROKEN_TESTS.
+# PYTEST_ENABLE_ALL_TESTS	enable tests which are otherwise ignored by
+#				PYTEST_IGNORED_TESTS and PYTEST_BROKEN_TESTS.
