[pytest-dev] pytest, or pytest plug-in dogfooding

Hi,
is it difficult to set-up development environment for hacking on
pytest itself or a plug-in where you use a stable version as a test
runner but the code under test is a different one?

Or in other words 'import pytest_myplugin' has to pick up the stable
source code on pytest start-up, but all the tests (and their
subprocesses)  doing 'import pytest_myplugin' have to pick-up the
bleading edge-version.

Thanks!
Tibor
