[py-dev] py.test : setup / teardown at the directory level
by Philippe Fremy April 16, 2010

April 16, 2010

Hi, I was wondering if there is a possibility to have or emulate setup/teardown method for an entire directory of tests ? I have an expensive setup/teardown method, which I share through about 10 modules, each with about 20 tests. I would save time if I could do the setup/teardown just for that directory. cheers, Philippe

[py-dev] py.test - suppressing stdout
by Sridhar Ratnakumar June 29, 2009

June 29, 2009

In py.test, is there a way to suppress stdout at all? In my program, if a test fails .. py.test prints a huge amount of text (that the program prints to stdout) .. and I had to scroll back a lot to see the traceback. This is very inconvenient. In most case, I just want to see the traceback along with locals values.

[py-dev] 1.0.0b6 and xfail/py.test.mark
by holger krekel June 29, 2009

June 29, 2009

Hi all, i just released a 1.0.0b6 which is hopefully the last beta. Main change to B5: * py.test.xfail is now py.test.mark.xfail * and py.test.mark is back for setting keywords on functions as documented. Andreas Kloeckner pointed me to the fact that py.test.mark *was* documented and he had provided (for b5) a patch which is also in that makes it work correctly with "py.test -k". see http://tinyurl.com/m6wc3b we apologize for any inconvenience.

by holger krekel June 24, 2009

June 24, 2009

Hello all, i just uploaded a 1.0.0b3 release up to PyPI. This is still The reason being that installing command line scripts on But there is no deep dependency - i.e. you can easily tweak the setup.py file to run without setuptools. What's new with 1.0.0b3, compared to 1.0.0b1? * much improved py.test documentation (http://pytest.org) * Plugins now define hooks directly instead of in a class * there is a new pytest_generate_tests test parametrization hook, see my blog Hope things work for everyone - please let me know of any problems. Next week i'd like to do a 1.0 final. thanks & best, holger -- Metaprogramming, Python, Testing: http://tetamap.wordpress.com Python, PyPy, pytest contracting: http://merlinux.eu

[py-dev] pytest_twisted vs generator based tests
by Ralf Schmitt June 8, 2009

June 8, 2009

Hi, generator based tests do not work with the pytest_twisted plugin (at least if you want to pass arguments) http://bitbucket.org/schmir/py-trunk/changeset/20e64b3893a0/ contains a fix. I'm not quite sure if is correct I've also fixed some typos in comments: http://bitbucket.org/schmir/py-trunk/changeset/4796f75ef7c5/ Regards, - Ralf
