pytest-picked

Run the tests related to the unstaged files or the current branch (according to Git)

---

Let's say you have the following output from git status:

$ git status

On branch master
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
  (use "git push" to publish your local commits)

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

  api.py
  tests/api/
  tests/test_board.py

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Running pytest --picked, the plugin will run all tests that come from this output.

$ pytest --picked
