8.5.19. pymodaq_utils.plugin_testing module

Moved to pymodaq.utils.plugin_testing, with the tools to test the behaviour of a plugin.

The pytest mixin was in pymodaq_utils to avoid the initialization of pymodaq when importing it. As it is used in tests that import the plugins (hence pymodaq) anyway, it now sits with the other plugin testing tools. This module is kept for the plugin repositories written for PyMoDAQ 5.3.1 and will be removed in a later version.

Added in version 5.3.1.

Deprecated since version 5.3.2: Use from pymodaq.utils.plugin_testing import PluginPackageChecks.
