pyunit跳过setUp和tearDown方法进行测试

Question

Is it possible to skip the setUp and tearDown functions for a test..? Please let me know how. Thank you

Answer 1

The only way to do this without writing another test class with different setUp and tearDown methods seems to be to overwrite the run method of TestCase . You can either rewrite it totally or try this shorter version (only for the setUp , but you can easily extend it to support tearDown too):

class MyTestCase(unitest.TestCase):
    def run(self, result=None):
        if self._testMethodName == 'testWithoutSetup':
            (old_setUp, self.setUp) = (self.setUp, lambda : None)
            try:
                super(MyTestCase, self).run(result)
            finally:
                self.setUp = old_setUp
        else:
            super(MyTestCase, self).run(result)

What I do is I test if the method being tested is named testWithoutSetup , and if it is, I temporaly replace the setUp method with a function that does nothing.

Note that I only tested with Python 3.3, and it may work only for this version.
