Testing nbtoolbelt

nbtoolbelt comes with automated test cases using pytest and pytest-mock.

For the purpose of testing, the command-line script nbtb has a hidden command base. This command invokes the base class Tool (also see Adding Tools to nbtoolbelt), which copies notebooks:

• notebook nb.ipynb is copied to nb-copy.ipynb

$ nbtb base test.ipynb
Copying: test.ipynb

Test cases for concrete tools need not test functionality of the base class.
