# Installation Instructions

If you want to experiment with TestFixtures, the easiest way to install it is to do the following in a virtualenv:

    pip install testfixtures

If your package uses setuptools and you decide to use TestFixtures, then you should do one of the following:

- Specify `testfixtures` in the `tests_require` parameter of your package’s call to `setup` in `setup.py`.

- Add an `extra_requires` parameter in your call to `setup` as follows:

      setup(
          # other stuff here
          extras_require=dict(
              test=['testfixtures'],
              )
          )
