Installation

Install using your favourite package manager::

    pip install pytest-shutil
    #  or..
    easy_install pytest-shutil

(not required when using setuptools entry points) pytestplugins = ['pytestshutil']

def test_something(workspace):
    # Workspaces contain a handle to the path.py path object (see https://pythonhosted.org/path.py)
    path = workspace.workspace         
    script = path / 'hello.sh'
    script.write_text('#!/bin/sh\n echo hello world!')

    # There is a 'run' method to execute things relative to the workspace root
    workspace.run('hello.sh')

```
