setup: limit WebTest version to <2.0 Running pip install -e . in a clean environment (or --upgrade), would cause: "ContextualVersionConflict: (WebOb 1.1.1 (.../lib/python2.7/site-packages), Requirement.parse('WebOb>=1.2'), set(['WebTest']))" setup.py required webob>=1.0.8,<=1.1.1 which pip resolved as WebOb==1.1.1. setup.py required Pylons which requires WebTest>=1.3.1. Pip would thus install the latest WebTest-2.0.23 ... which however has a WebOb>=1.2 dependency. Pip only makes one pass at resolving dependencies and it would not resolve or notice this inconsistency. This problem came with dd676fdeda0f which moved pinning of WebTest 1.4.3 out of setup.py. Since Pylons require webtest anyway, there is no point in having it as a dev requirement only - put it back in setup.py. This might just be a temporary workaround until the WebOb version is updated. Original patch by Dominik has been rewritten by Mads.

# requirements.txt file for use as "pip install -r requirements.txt" as a
# readthedocs compatible alternative to "pip install -e ." which is a working
# alternative to "setup.py develop" which doesn't work with Mercurial 3.7
