I really like Pytest but I didn't see a way to easily customize the output format (not just traceback but overall output). If they can add documentation with examples of the hooks available (if present) to customize the output, I won't have anything further to complain about Pytest.

This is a big one for me, too. Would make working with CI tools much easier.

So I'm not the only one :) Do you have any suggestions about alternatives? The Python code base I work with isn't too big so I'm open to exploring other unit test frameworks.

One thing that might help is that pytest can output test results as JUnit XML files, which many CI services support.

That's how we wire it into Jenkins.
