Tests for a mozbase package may require dependencies beyond which those listed in the package's 'setup.py' 'install_requires'.

Third-party packages -- those not in python's stdlib -- should be introduced only if they provide considerable value to testing (e.g. ability to test what is otherwise not possible, considerable savings in code complexity/manhours, etc.). In general, adding a test-only dependency should be taken (nearly) as seriously as adding a mozbase package dependency via ''install_requires''. | |||
