pytest fixtures available for external projects

[mkurek]

It would be great to have access to pytest fixtures defined in conftest.py or mock_server.py in external projects which depend on aiobotocore.

Similar setup is done for example in aiohttp's pytest_plugin

What do you think about it?

[thehesiod]

great idea, which ones in particular are you interested in?

Side note.
It would be nice if public aiobotocore fixtures are prefixed with the project name, as we did it for pytest-aiohttp. Otherwise, a chance for naming conflict with other libs is high.

Hi. Right now we're using only s3-related fixtures: bucket_name, create_object and s3_server (but they have a lot of dependent fixtures underneath).

Mock server is simple wrapper around moto library, it starts real network server on specified port, as result we have better test coverage since we do not have to use mocking. Probably https://github.com/jotes/pytest-moto is better fit for you, but library was not updated for some time.

My point is that this fixture is not about aiobotocore and more about generic aws service substitution. We can easily create pytest plugin, but I suggest to give pytest-moto a try first.

I'm going to close this in favor of #665
