[py-dev] unittest docstring behavior in py.test?

[Jim Vickroy]

Hello all,

I'm a recent convert to py.test (from unittest).  I like py.test, and 
wish to thanks its developers.

One feature I like about unittest is its ability to optionally echo each 
test docstring (if provided) as it runs.  I used this feature to make a 
simple statement about a behavior of the component being tested.  This 
proved useful for requirements validation since at the conclusion of a 
test run, I had a set of statements about the behaviors of the 
components being tested.  Is there some comparable capability with 
py.test?  If not, is there some alternate approach to achieve this 
(namely, a set of statements about the behaviors of tested components)?

Thanks for your feedback.
