Unit tests don't need to load in Plone. More times than not they don't even need to load up ZTC. It's the integration tests that end up loading ZTC and PTC.

I write those last :) Usually I don't write any unittests but only integration tests for Plone using PTC. That's what I am talking about. Usually I don't write unittests for AT/Plone boilerplate code...you test it one time and it works. More important are integration tests and they really take more or less the same amount of startup time. -aj pgpn2oHXUvPGq.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
