Hi all,
I'm new in python and is learning about testing my little web.py app with
nosetests.
When the app is running in the web browser, it's ok. And the terminal
returns something like "127.0.0.1:51936 - - [08/Aug/2011 23:00:37] "HTTP/1.1
GET /hello" - 200 OK"
But when I'm trying to test the app with nosetests, it always goes wrong. As
I look into the Tracebacks, I guess this is caused by the templates I've
used in my app. But I'm not sure what should I do to make the nosetests
running right.
This is a forum for learning Python, not nose, or your web templating
system. We can try to help, but you may have better luck on a dedicated
nose forum, or on the main python-l...@python.org mailing list (also
available on Usenet comp.lang.python).
I don't actually use nose, so it is hard for me to interpret the
tracebacks you give. My *guess* is that you are reporting one test
*error* (a test that fails because your code is broken) plus one test
*failure* (a test which just fails).
The first traceback you give seems to be an unexpected error:
File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/web/template.py", line 993, in
_load_template
raise AttributeError, "No template named " + name
AttributeError: No template named hello_form
F
Do you actually have a template called "hello_form"? If not, then my
*guess* is that this is an *error* (even though it prints F) because you
don't actually have a template called hello_form.
The second traceback seems to be a failing test:
AssertionError: Expected response '200' not in '500 Internal Server Error'
Your test expects a 500 Internal Server Error, but you actually get a
200 OK response. So your test is wrong: it fails for no good reason.
But I am not an expert on nose. I might be interpreting these tracebacks
completely wrong.
Aside:
I can't find anything in the nose docs which explain how to read the
test output except in the trivial case that all the tests pass.
