This is great, many thanks! I'd just suggest, if possible, adding a
top-level .test() function, so that the usual idiom for package
testing 'import foo;foo.test()' can be applied. I have a shell
function for that:
function pytest {
# Run the test suite for a python package by name.
# This assumes the package has a top-level .test() routine to run its
# test suite.
local pname=$1
python -c "import $pname;${pname}.test()"
}
that I use for things like testing numpy or scipy easily:
uqbar[~]> pytest numpy
Running unit tests for numpy
