[Christian Kampka <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Christian Kampka has proposed merging lp:~kampka/testtools/test-to-fixture into lp:testtools.

Requested reviews:
  testtools developers (testtools-dev)

For more details, see:
https://code.launchpad.net/~kampka/testtools/test-to-fixture/+merge/65034

Occasionally I find it useful to have more control over the test within the fixture, e.g. in case something unexpected happens during fixture setup. In order to do so, an instance of the testcase should be available to the fixture.
