I cannot figure out how to run single unit tests from within a python script and collect the results.
Scenario: I have a battery of tests that check various methods producing various statistical distributions of different objects. The tests sometimes fail, as they should given that I am basically checking for particular kinds of randomness. I would like to run the tests repeatedly from a script or even from the interpreter and collect results for further analysis.
Suppose I have a module myTest.py with:
class myTest(unittest.TestCase):
def setup(self):
...building objects, etc....
def testTest1(self):
..........
def testTest2(self):
..........
Basically I need to:
The closest I got to was (using code from a similar question):
from unittest import TextTestRunner, TestSuite
runner = TextTestRunner(verbosity = 2)
tests = ['testTest1']
suite = unittest.TestSuite(map(myTest, tests))
runner.run(suite)
But this does not work, because:
runner.run(suite)
does not run the setup method
and
I cannot catch the exception it throws when testTest1 fails
you simply need to add the test that you want to run multiple times to the suite.
Here is a complete code example. You can also see this code running in an interactive Python console to prove that it does actually work .
import unittest
import random
class NullWriter(object):
def write(*_, **__):
pass
def flush(*_, **__):
pass
SETUP_COUNTER = 0
class MyTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
global SETUP_COUNTER
SETUP_COUNTER += 1
def test_one(self):
self.assertTrue(random.random() > 0.3)
def test_two(self):
# We just want to make sure this isn't run
self.assertTrue(False, "This should not have been run")
def suite():
tests = []
for _ in range(100):
tests.append('test_one')
return unittest.TestSuite(map(MyTestCase, tests))
results = unittest.TextTestRunner(stream=NullWriter()).run(suite())
print dir(results)
print 'setUp was run', SETUP_COUNTER, 'times'
