+This pytest plugin produces coverage reports. Compared to just
+using coverage run this plugin does some extras:
+
+- Subprocess support: you can fork or run stuff in a subprocess
+ and will get covered without any fuss.
+- Xdist support: you can use all of pytest-xdist’s features and
+ still get coverage.
+- Consistent pytest behavior. If you run coverage run -m pytest you
+ will have slightly different sys.path (CWD will be in it, unlike
+ when running pytest).
+
+All features offered by the coverage package should work, either
+through pytest-cov’s command line options or through coverage’s
+config file.
