Hmm, that's quite interesting. From what I've seen, both pytest and `python setup.py test` (at least today) use the copy of the code from outside of build/ when running unittests, which I suppose probably makes sense as it is running right alongside the unittests themselves. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
