        Testfixtures is a collection of helpers and mock objects that are useful when
        writing automated tests in Python.
        
        The areas of testing this package can help with are listed below:
        
        **Comparing objects and sequences**
        
        Better feedback when the results aren't as you expected along with
        support for comparison of objects that don't normally support
        comparison and comparison of deeply nested datastructures.
        
        **Mocking out objects and methods**
        
        Easy to use ways of stubbing out objects, classes or individual
        methods for both doc tests and unit tests. Special helpers are
        provided for testing with dates and times.
        
        **Testing logging**
        
        Helpers for capturing logging output in both doc tests and
        unit tests.
        
        **Testing stream output**
        
        Helpers for capturing stream output, such as that from print
        statements, and making assertion about it.
        
        **Testing with files and directories**
        
        Support for creating and checking files and directories in sandboxes
        for both doc tests and unit tests.
        
        **Testing exceptions and warnings**
        
        Easy to use ways of checking that a certain exception is raised,
        or a warning is issued, even down the to the parameters provided.
        
        **Testing subprocesses**
        
        A handy mock for testing code that uses subprocesses.
        
        **Testing when using django**
        
        Helpers for comparing instances of django models.
        
        **Testing when using zope.component**
        
        An easy to use sterile component registry.
