pyflyby
includes an extension to IPython which integrates tightly with a substantial part of the IPython API.Previous IPython releases broke
pyflyby
functionality; this may be acceptable if it happens in major releases, but there were instances were minor releases introduced incompatibilities which lead to downstream breakages.This PR includes a single
pyflyby
test file that verifies the IPython-related integration in the downstream testing job. This is meant to serve as a canary test for breaking API changes in the completer, interactive help, and debug magics, all covered in thepyflyby
test suite.Should we decide that this is no longer needed, or that it introduces too much noise, this PR could be reverted in the future, but as of now it makes releasing new versions much easier as it alleviates the worry about breaking downstream functionality.
