Test configuration

Description of your problem

I'd like to run my tests with the flag --mpl to enable pytest-mpl, but as far as I can see it is not possible?

As a minor feature request (as in less "urgent"), it would be nice to be able to set environment variables when running the tests as well. For example PYTEST_QT_API. It is possible to set it before starting Spyder, but sometimes one would like to change without restarting or simply forget to set it...

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

@oscargus You're right, that's not possible at the moment. I can add a text field to the test configuration window where you can specify additional command line arguments like --mpl. Would that work for you?

That would be awesome! Thanks!
