How to set up bash completion
=============================
When using bash as your shell, ``pytest`` can use argcomplete
(https://kislyuk.github.io/argcomplete/) for auto-completion.
For this ``argcomplete`` needs to be installed **and** enabled.
Install argcomplete using:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo pip install 'argcomplete>=0.5.7'
For global activation of all argcomplete enabled python applications run:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo activate-global-python-argcomplete
For permanent (but not global) ``pytest`` activation, use:
.. code-block:: bash
register-python-argcomplete pytest >> ~/.bashrc
For one-time activation of argcomplete for ``pytest`` only, use:
.. code-block:: bash
eval "$(register-python-argcomplete pytest)"
