19Similar test runners
20====================
21
22nose was inspired mainly by py.test_, which is a great test runner, but
23formerly was not all that easy to install, and is not based on unittest.
24
25Test suites written for use with nose should work equally well with py.test,
26and vice versa, except for the differences in output capture and command line
27arguments for the respective tools.
