## What it is
rstest is a fixture-based test framework for Rust built on procedural macros. It provides dependency injection via fixtures, table-based/parametrized tests, value lists, matrix tests, and async test timeouts.

## Use cases
- inject shared test dependencies as function arguments in Rust tests
- run the same test against many input cases
- generate cartesian-product matrix tests
- reuse parametrized test definitions across multiple tests
- add timeouts to async Rust tests

## When to choose
- you write Rust tests and want pytest-style fixtures and parametrization
- you need table-driven tests without boilerplate
- you want reusable test templates across test functions

## When to avoid
- you prefer plain built-in cargo test with no macros
- your project avoids proc-macro compile-time dependencies
- you need a test runner rather than an extension of the built-in one

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
