  Description     : Fake version of a redis-py

fakeredis is a pure Python implementation of the redis-py Python client that
simulates talking to a redis server. This was created for a single purpose:
to write unittests. Setting up redis is not hard, but many times you want to
write unittests that do not talk to an external server (such as redis).
This module now allows tests to simply use this module as a reasonable
substitute for redis.

We are using this package in our company and we are going to maintain it in DPMT.
