Hi Floris, first of all thanks for this plugin as this is something my team will be more than happy to leverage.
I gave it a shot yesterday (just kicking the tires) and while the plugin was installed (see below) and registered it didn't work for me (ubuntu/python 2.6.6) This is py.test version 2.2.3, imported from /home/lpbrac/.buildout/eggs/pytest-2.2.3-py2.6.egg/pytest.pyc setuptools registered plugins: pytest-xdist-1.8 at /home/lpbrac/.buildout/eggs/pytest_xdist-1.8-py2.6.egg/xdist/plugin.pyc pytest-cov-1.5 at /home/lpbrac/.buildout/eggs/pytest_cov-1.5-py2.6.egg/pytest_cov.pyc pytest-testlink-0.0.6 at /home/lpbrac/repos/p4_qa/qa/infrastructure/taf/pytest_plugins/pytest_testlink/src/pytest_testlink/tl_plugin.py pytest-session-cfg-0.0.2 at /home/lpbrac/.buildout/eggs/pytest_session_cfg-0.0.2-py2.6.egg/pytest_session_cfg.py pytest-timeout-0.1 at /home/lpbrac/.buildout/eggs/pytest_timeout-0.1-py2.6.egg/pytest_timeout.pyc Just wrote an infinite loop which never got preempted. I didn't have time to dig any deeper. Does the test need to be executed in a separate process via xdist? Also, currently the time out applies to all tests (and defaults to 5 minutes). I think it would be useful to be able to override the timeout at the test level using markers. If something goes wrong and we have thousands of tests (we use pytest to test embedded systems), this is an awful lot of time to realize that things are DOA. Best Regards and thanks again for starting this. /Laurent -----Original Message----- From: py-dev-boun...@codespeak.net on behalf of Floris Bruynooghe Sent: Sun 2/26/2012 3:19 PM To: py-dev@codespeak.net Subject: [py-dev] New plugin: pytest-timeout Hi all, This is to announce the first release of pytest-timeout, a plugin which will interrupt long running (i.e. blocking) tests. This is particularly useful when running the tests on a CI host. When a test is interrupted the stacks of all threads are dumped to stderr, which helps you to locate the reason for the blocking. If the system supports SIGALRM then the test itself is interrupted using pytest.fail() and other tests continue to run, otherwise the stack(s) are dumped to stderr and the process exists immediately. The plugin is available from the cheeseshop: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-timeout and the code lives at bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/flub/pytest-timeout/. Feel free to provide any feedback or report issues.
