A couple of followups to things in this thread so far: - - Running tests consistently both in and out of virtualenv. Super important. Part of the problem is that setuptools "test" command is a broken pile of garbage. So we have a patch coming to pbr that will sort that out - and at least as a next step, tox and run_tests.sh can both run python setup.py test and it will work both in and out of a venv, regardless of whether the repo uses nose or testr. - - Individual tests nose and tox and testr and run_tests.sh all support running individual tests just fine. The invocation is slightly different for each. For me testr is hte friendliest because it defaults to regexes - so "testr run test_foo" will happily run nova.tests.integration.deep_directory.foo.TestFoo.test_foo. But - all four mechanisms work here fine. - - pbr Dropping in to a debugger while running via testr is currently problematic, but is currently on the table to be sorted. In the meantime, the workaround is to run testtools.run directly, which run_tests.sh does for you if you specify a single test. I think this is probably the single greatest current reason to keep run_tests.sh at the moment - because as much as you can learn the cantrips around doing it, it's not a good UI. - - nova vs. testr In general, things are moving towards testr being the default. I don't think there will be anybody cutting off people's hands for using nose, but I strongly recommend taking a second to learn testr a bit. It's got some great features and is built on top of a completely machine parsable test result streaming protocol, which means we can do some pretty cool stuff with it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlHAqn4ACgkQ2Jv7/VK1RgGZ9gCdHe8AhG8uQi7nkBz1UbZHUjvJ KskAoKddVUPBZnXAtzNpBiwazRid0gu7 =eGE3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
