Better pytest Exceptions
This plugin attempts to make richer pytest exceptions a snap to write.
For example, consider the following exception:
class StartFire(pytest.Exception):
__teststatus__ = 'fire', '🔥', ('FIRE', {'purple': True, 'bold': True})

def toterminal(self, longrepr, tw):
tw.line("FIRE! Please evacuate the building!")
longrepr.toterminal(tw)

def summary_header(self, header):
return "Fire started during {}".format(header)
When this specific exception class is thrown, the pretty printing and
result categorization is now in the hands of the exception, making it
more straightforward than writing special purpose plugins.:

TODO
Provide more control over formatting and presentation without making
the API too cumbersome. Still very much an early prototype and
probably not close to a stable API.
