A custom pyton codec that provides an RSpec style dsl for python
Project description
This is a project creates a custom Python codec that lets you write your tests using an RSpec inspired DSL (i.e. describe and it blocks)
It uses the fact that you can register a codec that is able to modify a Python file before executing it.
http://docs.python.org/library/codecs.html
Using this we can make it so that when Python imports a file with a particular encoding as the first line of the file it will be intercepted and potentially rewritten into something else before the import continues.
nose-of-yeti uses this technique to translate from the DSL it defines, into Python classes and functions that then will be executed by your test framework of choice.
It was originally developed by Stephen Moore after borrowing the idea from a project by Fernando Meyer called Yeti

You can find documentation at http://noseofyeti.readthedocs.io and the code over at https://github.com/delfick/nose-of-yeti
Updating nose-of-yeti version
It is recommended you remove .pyc of your nose-of-yeti specs when you upgrade nose-of-yeti. The Python interpreter skips the translation process if it sees a .pyc file (unless the .py file has changed since the .pyc file was created). This means that any changes in the translation process won’t happen until either the .pyc files are removed or all the .py files have been changed.
