        Requirements
        ------------
        
        You will need the following prerequisites in order to use pytest-variables:
        
        - Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, or PyPy
        - py.test 2.6 or newer
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install pytest-variables:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          $ pip install pytest-variables
        
        Additional formats
        ------------------
        
        The following optional formats are supported, but must be explicitly installed
        as they require additional dependencies:
        
        Human JSON
        ~~~~~~~~~~
        
        `Human JSON <http://hjson.org>`_ is a configuration file format that caters to
        humans and helps reduce the errors they make. To install Human JSON support:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          $ pip install pytest-variables[hjson]
        
        YAML
        ~~~~
        
        `YAML <http://yaml.org>`_ is a human friendly data serialization standard for
        all programming languages. To install YAML support:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          $ pip install pytest-variables[yaml]
        
        Specifying variables
        --------------------
        
        Use the `--variables` command line option one or more times to specify paths to
        files containing your variables:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          $ py.test --variables foo.json --variables bar.json
        
        If multiple files are specified then they will be applied in the order they
        appear on the command line. When duplicates are encountered, the last
        to be applied will take priority.
        
        Accessing variables
        -------------------
        
        With a JSON variables file such as:
        
        .. code-block:: json
        
          {
            "foo": "bar",
            "bar": "foo"
          }
        
        Specify the `variables` funcarg to make the variables available to your tests.
        The contents of the files are made available as a
        `dictionary <https://docs.python.org/tutorial/datastructures.html#dictionaries>`_:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
          def test_foo(self, variables):
              assert variables['foo'] == 'bar'
              assert variables.get('bar') == 'foo'
              assert variables.get('missing') is None
