Direct use of 'tmpdir' fixture causes warnings to be raised in latest pytest versions

See original GitHub issue

The following warning message appears after test runs:

RemovedInPytest4Warning: Fixture "tmpdir" called directly. Fixtures are not meant to be called directly, are created automatically when test functions request them as parameters. See https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/fixture.html for more information.

@youtux thanks for the fix. I’ve also hit this bug today with clean pip install pytest-splinter.

… also, I know it’s been only 23 hours since you committed the fix but… how about a release? 😃 Thanks.
