I was trying to add tests to #247 by modifying tests/helpers.CursorBase().

But then, when running py.test tests/test_pymssql.py they weren't discovered at all.

It was then that I realized py.test is skipping them:

SKIP [1] /path/to/lib/python2.7/site-packages/_pytest/python.py:503: class tests.test_pymssql.TestCursor with __init__ won't get collected

(I saw that SKIP message before every time I ran the full suite but ignored it until now)

Reason is that py.test skips classes that have an __init__() method. This is an intended and documented behavior.

This means there are 14 basic DB-API cursor test cases we aren't running.

I'm not sure how we could fix this while at the same time maintaining nose compatibility. Perhaps it's time we switch completely to py.test ?
