=======================
The :ref:`ref-classes-ptest-python-pytest` class can be used in Python-based
recipes to automatically configure the :ref:`ref-classes-ptest` class for Python
packages leveraging the `pytest <https://docs.pytest.org>`__ unit test framework.
Within the recipe, the :term:`PTEST_PYTEST_DIR` variable can be overridden to
specify the path to the directory containing the tests (default value:
``tests``). Test contained in this directory are installed in :term:`D` by the
:ref:`ref-tasks-install_ptest_base` task, as well as a specific ``run-ptest``
script for this task.
