I don't see where you could specify a test runner on the commandline, but 
you can reuse the discovery code in your own scripts. For the following 
example I basically copied unittest.__main__.py:

$ cat discover.py 
#!/usr/bin/env python
import xmlrunner

__unittest = True

from unittest.main import main, TestProgram, USAGE_AS_MAIN
TestProgram.USAGE = USAGE_AS_MAIN

main(module=None, testRunner=xmlrunner.XMLTestRunner(output='test-reports'))
$ cat test_alpha.py 
import unittest

class T(unittest.TestCase):
def test_alpha(self):
pass
def test_beta(self):
self.assertEquals(["a", "b", "c"], ["a", "B", "c"])
$ ./discover.py discover

Running tests...

Steady on there! It's only been about an hour and a half since you last
asked this exact same question, almost word-for-word identical. The more
specialised the question, the longer it may take for somebody who knows
the answer to reply. For something like this, I would wait at least a
couple of days before replying to your original post. (Don't just re-post
the question in a new thread, keep the response in a single thread.)

I have no idea about xmlrunner and unittest discovery, sorry.




I entirely agree with Steven's comments.  I'd put a question like this 
on a specialised list.  How about gmane.comp.python.testing.general ? 
Sorry I've no idea what it's called elsewhere.

Publish unittest results from test discovery

2012-08-24 Thread Lucretiel
So I've started using unittest, and I love it. I use testdiscovery (python -m 
unittest discover) so that I can distribute my tests and don't have to manage 
them all manually. I wanted to start publishing my test results to xml, though. 
I found xmlrunner by googling around, but it requires me to add an if __name__ 
== '__main__' block to my code, which isn't executed by unittest discover. Is 
there a way to get unittest disover to work with xmlrunner, or to some other 
way to solve this without restructuring all my test code?
