pytest-pylint 0.21.0

Description:

pytestpylint 0.21.0

Run pylint with pytest and have configurable rule types
(i.e. Convention, Warn, and Error) fail the build. You can also
specify a pylintrc file.

Sample Usage
py.test --pylint
would be the most simple usage and would run pylint for all error messages.
py.test --pylint --pylint-rcfile=/my/pyrc --pylint-error-types=EF --pylint-jobs=4
This would use the pylintrc file at /my/pyrc, only error on pylint
Errors and Failures, and use 4 cores for running pylint.
You can restrict your test run to only perform pylint checks and not any other
tests by typing:
py.test --pylint -m pylint


Acknowledgements
This code is heavily based on
pytest-flakes
