Stop using the fixture module for testing
Registered by
Michal Kwiatkowski
Fixture seems to cause a few problems for Pythoscope, and since we don't use it much, we can replace it.
Problems with fixture:
- in some cases fails on Windows (see https:/
- causes problems when tests invoked with "python setup.py test" (see https:/
- directories auto-destruct behavior doesn't always work as expected
- requires Python 2.4 or higher
We only use fixture.io.TempIO class for managment of temporary directories in tests.
