Hello everybody out there using pytest,

last year a colleague of mine and I came up with the idea of using tests
for searching code that implements a particular feature.

As I didn't find anything similar on the internet I started writing a
pytest plugin that helps doing just that and I'm now ready to release the
first beta of pytest-wish:

https://github.com/alexamici/pytest-wish

See the 2 minutes hands-on overview for how it works:

https://pytest-wish.readthedocs.org/en/stable/quickstart.html

We are using pytest-wish at my company with some success and I consider it
feature complete for a 1.0 release. OTOH the documentation is lagging and
it is my top priority right now.

I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in the approach.

Thanks,
Alessandro
