[Noob Question] How do I check my changes?

[hasnainzeenwala]

Hi! This is my first time trying to contribute to open source. I've forked and cloned the repo and I'm trying to figure out how do I check my changes? Like how do I import the pytest code modified by me locally into some python program to check if my changes have had the desired effect.

Hi @hasnainzeenwala,

You can install pytest into development mode by calling pip install -e . from pytest's directory from within an activate virtual environment.
