I have not worked with py.test yet. The documentation is pretty convincing but I think we better have a look at these[1][2] comparisons as well. (Also note that these discussions are quite old and probably obsolete). Also, I found[3][4][5] to be very comprehensive articles on Python testing frameworks. So this might be a good starting point to decide where we will be going with our testing work-flow.
