-`pytest <http://doc.pytest.org/en/latest/>`__ has a nice feature `parametrize <https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/parametrize.html>`__ to allow
-testing of many cases in a concise way that enables an easy-to-read syntax.

-   *pandas* existing test structure is *mostly* classed based, meaning that you will typically find tests wrapped in a class, inheriting from ``tm.TestCase``.
+Going forward, we are moving to a more *functional* style using the `pytest <http://doc.pytest.org/en/latest/>`__ framework, which offers a richer testing
+framework that will facilitate testing and developing. Thus, instead of writing test classes, we will write test functions like this:
 
-   .. code-block:: python
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def test_really_cool_feature():
+        ....
 
-      class TestReallyCoolFeature(tm.TestCase):
-          ....
+Sometimes, it does make sense to bundle test functions together into a single class, either because the test file is testing multiple functions from a single module, and
+using test classes allows for better organization. However, instead of inheriting from ``tm.TestCase``, we should just inherit from ``object``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
