201762650 MDU6SXNzdWUyMDE3NjI2NTA= 1218 Testing functions should be moved to a separate `xarray.testing` module 1217238 closed 0   2244472 4 2017-01-19T04:33:14Z 2017-01-24T21:18:20Z 2017-01-24T21:18:20Z MEMBER      

These functions are in the test module, which isn't imported by default because it requires pytest, which we only require for testing. Hence the API docs are currently broken: http://xarray.pydata.org/en/latest/api.html#testing

If we move these to a separate testing module (i.e., a testing.py file), we can make xarray.testing.assert_xarray_equal just work after import xarray (maybe rename it to just xarray.testing.assert_equal to avoid the redundant xarray).

To avoid confusion, we might rename the test directory to tests.

cc @MaximilianR @fmaussion in case either of you want to take a look at this -- it should probably be a blocker for 0.9.0.
