I would like some help integrating TDD into my current projects.
My chosen TDD framework is unittest from the standard library.
My system details are: Linux Mint 17.1 64-bit, Python 3.4, bzr(for
version control).
My projects are structured like:
Project > develop > Project > Project > __main__.py
tests > __main__.py
I want to be able to execute my Project from a cwd of:
Project/develop/Project
as: Python3 -m Project
That currently works.
But executing my tests as: Python3 -m tests
requires that test_Project.py has this hack to import the Project module:
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..'))
do you consider that OK? Is there a better way?
I call it a hack because every testcase file will have to have this line
added to it in order to work.
I am also using coverage.py and it is good but seems to be testing the
coverage of my tests, which is not desired, how can I stop this
behaviour. Or is it really OK.
Output of running the tests:
python3 -m tests
Ran Main.
.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 test in 0.001s
OK
Name Stmts Miss Cover Missing
--------------------------------------------------
Project/Project 3 0 100%
tests/test_Project 8 0 100%
--------------------------------------------------
TOTAL 11 0 100%
The test files:
{FileName = __main__.py}
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
if __name__ == '__main__':
import coverage
import unittest
cov = coverage.coverage()
cov.start()
# .. call your code ..
from .test_Project import ProjectTestCase # lint:ok
unittest.main(exit=False)
cov.stop()
cov.save()
import sys
cov.report(file=sys.stdout)
{FileName = test_Project.py}
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os
import sys
import unittest
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..'))
from Project import Project
class ProjectTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def test_example(self):
self.assertTrue(Project.main())
The Project Files:
{FileName = __main__.py}
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
if __name__ == '__main__':
from . import Project
Project.main()
{FileName = Project.py}
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
def main():
return True
