pytest-plone

pytest-plone is a pytest plugin that provides fixtures and helpers to test Plone add-ons.

It builds on zope.pytestlayer, turning the plone.testing layers you already have into pytest fixtures. You write plain function-style tests, and the Plone site arrives as an argument.

def test_portal_title(portal):
    assert portal.title == "Plone site"
