Unsupported idioms / known issues
----------------------------------
+- unittest-style ``setUp, tearDown, setUpClass, tearDownClass``
+ are recognized only on ``unittest.TestCase`` classes but not
+ on plain classes. ``nose`` supports these methods also on plain
+ classes but pytest deliberately does not. As nose and pytest already
+ both support ``setup_class, teardown_class, setup_method, teardown_method``
+ it doesn't seem useful to duplicate the unittest-API like nose does.
+ If you however rather think pytest should support the unittest-spelling on
+ plain classes please post `to this issue
+ <https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/377/>`_.
+
- nose-style doctests are not collected and executed correctly,
also doctest fixtures don't work.
- no nose-configuration is recognized
