Convert unittest asserts to pytest rewritten asserts.

py.test supports advanced assertion introspection, allowing it to provide more detailed error messages. https://pytest.org/latest/assert.html#advanced-assertion-introspection

Check out this blog post detailing how it works. http://pybites.blogspot.ie/2011/07/behind-scenes-of-pytests-new-assertion.html

tl;dr If you are using py.test, then "assert a == b" is better than "self.assertEqual(a, b)"

Pytest output before:

test/test_login.py:80: in test
    self.assertEquals(login.call_count, 1)
E   AssertionError: 0 != 1
    assert login.call_count == 1

Pytest output after:

test/test_login.py:80: in test
E   AssertionError: assert 0 == 1
E    +  where 0 = <MagicMock name='mock.desktop_login.login' id='140671857679512'>.call_count

Before:

self.assertEqual(a, b)
self.assertEqual(a, None)
self.assertFalse(a)

After:

assert a == b
assert a is None
assert not a
