I have two test cases (two different files) that I want to run together in a Test Suite. I can get the tests to run just by running python "normally" but when I select to run a python-unit test it says 0 tests run. Right now I'm just trying to get at least one test to run correectly.
import usertest
import configtest # first test
import unittest # second test
testSuite = unittest.TestSuite()
testResult = unittest.TestResult()
confTest = configtest.ConfigTestCase()
testSuite.addTest(configtest.suite())
test = testSuite.run(testResult)
print testResult.testsRun # prints 1 if run "normally"
Here's an example of my test case set up
class ConfigTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
##set up code
def runTest(self):
#runs test
def suite():
"""
Gather all the tests from this module in a test suite.
"""
test_suite = unittest.TestSuite()
test_suite.addTest(unittest.makeSuite(ConfigTestCase))
return test_suite
if __name__ == "__main__":
#So you can run tests from this module individually.
unittest.main()
What do I have to do to get this work correctly?
you want to use a testsuit. So you need not call unittest.main().
Use of testsuit should be like this:
#import usertest
#import configtest # first test
import unittest # second test
class ConfigTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
print 'stp'
##set up code
def runTest(self):
#runs test
print 'stp'
def suite():
"""
Gather all the tests from this module in a test suite.
"""
test_suite = unittest.TestSuite()
test_suite.addTest(unittest.makeSuite(ConfigTestCase))
return test_suite
mySuit=suite()
runner=unittest.TextTestRunner()
runner.run(mySuit)
All of the code to create a loader and suite is unnecessary. You should write your tests so that they are runnable via test discovery using your favorite test runner. That just means naming your methods in a standard way, putting them in an importable place (or passing a folder containing them to the runner), and inheriting from unittest.TestCase
. After you've done that, you can use python -m unittest discover
at the simplest, or a nicer third party runner to discover and then run your tests.
I am assuming you are referring to running python-unit test against the module that consolidates the two test. It will work if you create test case for that module ie. subclassing unittest.TestCase
and having a simple test that starts with the word 'test'.
e.g.
class testall(unittest.TestCase):
def test_all(self):
testSuite = unittest.TestSuite()
testResult = unittest.TestResult()
confTest = configtest.ConfigTestCase()
testSuite.addTest(configtest.suite())
test = testSuite.run(testResult)
print testResult.testsRun # prints 1 if run "normally"
if __name__ == "__main__":
unittest.main()
If you are trying to manually collect TestCase
s, this is useful: unittest.loader.findTestCases()
:
# Given a module, M, with tests:
mySuite = unittest.loader.findTestCases(M)
runner = unittest.TextTestRunner()
runner.run(mySuit)
