Hello, I am running one and the same unit tests that test some web application. I would like to execute them against different servers that may host different instances of the application.
So far I have something like #!/usr/bin/env python import unittest server = "" user = "" password = "" class MyTest(unittest.TestCase): def setUp(self): global server global user global password self.conn = MyConnection(server, user, password) def test_1(self): result = run_smth_1(self.conn) verify_smth_1(result) def test_2(self): result = run_smth_2(self.conn) verify_smth_2(result) def tearDown(self): self.conn.close() if __name__ == '__main__': parser = argparse.ArgumentParser() parser.add_argument('-u', '--user', default=getpass.getuser()) parser.add_argument('-p', '--password') parser.add_argument('-s', '--server') args = parser.parse_args() server = args.server user = args.user password = args.password unittest.main() Is there a better a way to pass the server, the user and the password to the test without resolving to global variables? Although I developed these tests as unit tests they are more of integration tests. Is there an integration testing framework that supports a more convenient passing of test parameters / data? Thank you in advance for your responses. Regards Rambius -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
