feature request, improving tests with pytest and pytest-vcr

Feature Permission Request

Hi, there. Please keep in mind:

• my English is very poor
• I have a very limited experience with any open source projects, especially this one

Recently I'v made a small changes to some cloud providers:

• https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/1508 (Digitalocean)
• https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/1506 (Vultr)

I am asking for permission for completely rewrite some tests with:

• https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/
• https://pytest-vcr.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

I chose Vultr for a start point for me. I believe that pytest is a very nice and easiest way to write any tests for any project. Many people do not like write tests, but with pytest and pytest-vcr their work will be more funny and much better. I can not promise that my work will be done completely, but I will try to make a start point for that.

Please suggest me the write way. E.g.:

• I should not make any changes to current tests
• I should make new tests from the scratch

P.S. I hope Google translate is working as expected :smiley:
