Randomisation not compatible with custom test collection

[ringods]

I have written two custom pytest plugins to test different aspects of an internal product. Each of these plugins has a custom way of collecting tests, passing custom subclasses of pytest.File, pytest.Collector and pytest.Item back to pytest.

The pytest-random-order only works with the global random bucket-type. All other bucket-type functions use the member module, which is defined in the pytest python plugin:

https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/d61a7670a1d50eab367dfac03896d2811dbf5279/_pytest/python.py#L210

Since I pass back a tree with collections of tests (root -> File* -> Collector* -> Item*), it would be nice if randomisation could happen at the different levels of my custom pytest plugin.

Is this what you are looking for?

@jbasko yes, I guess something like that. By looking at the implementation of parent1 and parent2, it's clear what you mean. But if someone would read this in the docs, would it be clear enough what it does? Maybe call it parent and grandparent?

@jbasko I noticed the 0.7.0 tag here on Github, but is there still something you need to do to have this version also available on Pypi? At the time of writing, the latest version is still 0.6.0 there.

I'm sorry, I forgot that for this project I need to manually do the upload to pypi.org. It is available now.
