Hello all,
I am trying to use the funcargs feature with my unittest.Testcase
subclasses but it appears that py.test fails to pass the additional
arguments to the unittest test method. I haven't found any discussion of
this anywhere, so I'm making my first post here.
Here is a simple example--
# ./conftest.py
def pytest_funcarg__val1(request):
return True
def pytest_funcarg__val2(request):
return False
# ./test_myunittest.py
class Test(unittest.TestCase):
def test_Name(self, val1, val2):
assert (val1 and val2)
The result-
================================================= test session starts
=================================================
[...snip...]
self = <UnitTestFunction 'test_Name'>
def runtest(self):
target = self.obj
args = self._args
> target(*args)
E TypeError: test_Name() takes exactly 3 arguments (1 given)
C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\py-1.0.2-py2.6.egg\py\test\plugin\pytest_u
nittest.py:65: TypeError
============================================== 1 failed in 0.08 seconds
===============================================
As you can see, py.test isn't passing the 2 funcargs from conftest.py.
However, if you simply remove "unittest.TestCase" from
test_myunittest.py, the py.test fails as intended-
self = < test_myunittest.py.Test instance at 0x00E98AF8>, val1 = True,
val2 = False
def test_Name(self, val1, val2):
> assert (val1 and val2)
E assert (True and False)
tests\math\ test_myunittest.py:18: AssertionError
============================================== 1 failed in 0.08 seconds
===============================================
Is there any way to incorporate the funcargs feature into the unittest
compatibility?
Thanks, and keep up the great tool!
Greg
