After each run pytest waits until a file in your project changes and then re-runs the previously failing tests. This is repeated until all tests pass after which again a full run is performed. * Multi-Platform coverage: you can specify different Python interpreters or different platforms and run tests in parallel on all of them. Before running tests remotely, pytest efficiently “rsyncs” your program source code to the remote place. All test results are reported back and displayed to your local terminal. You may specify different Python versions and interpreters.

GTK+ GTK+ is the primary library used to construct user interfaces in GNOME. It provides all the user interface controls, or widgets, used in a common graphical application. Its object-oriented API allows you to construct user interfaces without dealing with the low-level details of drawing and device interaction.
GTK2 The GTK+ 2 package contains libraries used for creating graphical user interfaces for applications.
GTK3 GTK+ is the primary library used to construct user interfaces in GNOME. It provides all the user interface controls, or widgets, used in a common graphical application. Its object-oriented API allows you to construct user interfaces without dealing with the low-level details of drawing and device interaction.
GTS GTS stands for the GNU Triangulated Surface Library. It is an Open Source Free Software Library intended to provide a set of useful functions to deal with 3D surfaces meshed with interconnected triangles.
HarfBuzz HarfBuzz is an OpenType text shaping engine.

JasPer The JasPer Project is an open-source initiative to provide a free software-based reference implementation of the codec specified in the JPEG-2000 Part-1 standard.
jbigkit JBIG-KIT is a software implementation of the JBIG1 data compression standard (ITU-T T.82), which was designed for bi-level image data, such as scanned documents.
libGLU The OpenGL Utility Library (GLU) is a computer graphics library for OpenGL.
LittleCMS Little CMS intends to be an OPEN SOURCE small-footprint color management engine, with special focus on accuracy and performance.
matplotlib matplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. matplotlib can be used in python scripts, the python and ipython shell, web application servers, and six graphical user interface toolkits.
Mesa Mesa is an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification - a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics.
motif Motif refers to both a graphical user interface (GUI) specification and the widget toolkit for building applications that follow that specification under the X Window System on Unix and other POSIX-compliant systems. It was the standard toolkit for the Common Desktop Environment and thus for Unix.
OVITO OVITO is a scientific visualization and analysis software for atomistic and particle simulation data.
Pango Pango is a library for laying out and rendering of text, with an emphasis on internationalization. Pango can be used anywhere that text layout is needed, though most of the work on Pango so far has been done in the context of the GTK+ widget toolkit. Pango forms the core of text and font handling for GTK+-2.x.
ParaView ParaView is a scientific parallel visualizer.
Pillow Pillow is the 'friendly PIL fork' by Alex Clark and Contributors. PIL is the Python Imaging Library by Fredrik Lundh and Contributors.
pixman Pixman is a low-level software library for pixel manipulation, providing features such as image local_compositing and trapezoid rasterization. Important users of pixman are the cairo graphics library and the X server.
PyQt5 PyQt5 is a set of Python bindings for v5 of the Qt application framework from The Qt Company. This bundle includes PyQtWebEngine, a set of Python bindings for The Qt Company’s Qt WebEngine framework.
QtiPlot QtiPlot is a cross-platform scientific application for data analysis and visualisation.
Tk Tk is an open source, cross-platform widget toolchain that provides a library of basic elements for building a graphical user interface (GUI) in many different programming languages.
Togl A Tcl/Tk widget for OpenGL rendering.
VirtualGL VirtualGL is an open source toolkit that gives any Linux or Unix remote display software the ability to run OpenGL applications with full hardware acceleration.
VisIt VisIt is an Open Source, interactive, scalable, visualization, animation and analysis tool
VTK The Visualization Toolkit (VTK) is an open-source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing and visualization. VTK consists of a C++ class library and several interpreted interface layers including Tcl/Tk, Java, and Python. VTK supports a wide variety of visualization algorithms including: scalar, vector, tensor, texture, and volumetric methods; and advanced modeling techniques such as: implicit modeling, polygon reduction, mesh smoothing, cutting, contouring, and Delaunay triangulation.
Wayland Wayland is a project to define a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients as well as a library implementation of the protocol. The compositor can be a standalone display server running on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input devices, an X application, or a wayland client itself. The clients can be traditional applications, X servers (rootless or fullscreen) or other display servers.
wxWidgets wxWidgets is a C++ library that lets developers create applications for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and other platforms with a single code base. It has popular language bindings for Python, Perl, Ruby and many other languages, and unlike other cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets gives applications a truly native look and feel because it uses the platform's native API rather than emulating the GUI.
X11 The X Window System (X11) is a windowing system for bitmap displays
