For more info on this, see the [pytest documentation](http://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/contents.html). Tests for spaCy modules and classes live in their own directories of the same name. For example, tests for the `Tokenizer` can be found in [`/spacy/tests/tokenizer`](spacy/tests/tokenizer). To be interpreted and run, all test files and test functions need to be prefixed with `test_`. When adding tests, make sure to use descriptive names, keep the code short and concise and only test for one behaviour at a time. Try to `parametrize` test cases wherever possible, use our pre-defined fixtures for spaCy components and avoid unnecessary imports.
