Robert Collins added the comment: The basic model is this: - a test can have a single outcome [yes, the api is ambiguous, but there it is] - subtests let you identify multiple variations of a single test (note the id tweak etc) and *may* be reported differently
We certainly must not report the test as a whole passing if any subtest did not pass. Long term I want to remove the error/failure partitioning of exceptions; its not actually useful. The summary for the test, when subtests are used, should probably enumerate the states. test_foo (3 passed, 2 skipped, 1 failure) in much the same way the run as a whole is enumerated. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25894> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
