This is a meta-package that pulls in the dependencies that are used by
`astropy`_ and some `affiliated packages`_ for testing. It can also be used for
testing packages that are not affiliated with the Astropy project.

This package also provides pytest markers for cpu and memory intensive tests
(``pytest.mark.slow`` and ``pytest.mark.hugemem``). Tests marked with those
markers are not run by default, can be run with the other tests with
``--run-slow`` and ``--run-hugemem``, and can be run separately with ``-m slow``
and ``-m hugemem``.

The package also provides the short option ``-R`` for ``--remote-data``.
