Chris Jerdonek added the comment: I think he's saying that a test package will never be discovered by default, because the default value of discover()'s pattern argument is test*.py:
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/bc322469a7a8/Lib/unittest/loader.py#l152 So I think he wants package directories with names of the form test* to match by default. The discover() docstring touches on this special case: If a test package name (directory with '__init__.py') matches the pattern then the package will be checked for a 'load_tests' function. If this exists then it will be called with loader, tests, pattern. ---------- nosy: +chris.jerdonek _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
