Testing/development tips 
------------------------ 
 
To run tests under CPython, run:: 
 
    pip install pytest     # if you don't have py.test already 
    pip install pycparser 
    python setup.py build_ext -f -i 
    py.test c/ testing/ 
 
If you run in another directory (either the tests or another program), 
you should use the environment variable ``PYTHONPATH=/path`` to point 
to the location that contains the ``_cffi_backend.so`` just compiled.
