    Description : Test equality of unordered collections in pytest

    This library provides a utility to assert the equality of collections while
    ignoring the order of elements, a requirement often encountered when dealing
    with unordered datasets. Utilizing this library simplifies the process of
    verifying that collections contain equivalent items without necessitating a
    concern for order, which is especially useful in testing frameworks where
    external data sources might return data in non-guaranteed sequences. By
    incorporating functionality to operate within complex nested data structures,
    it enhances test writing by allowing precise order checking control, thereby
    minimizing boilerplate code and increasing readability. The ability to
    specifically designate unordered assertions within larger structured datasets
    provides a granular approach to type and element equivalence verification.

    I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
