Djangoists:
Morelia /viridis/ is a Behavior Driven Development system for Python.
We use Morelia on all our private Django projects here at
http://github.com/cuker
. (Other than that, Morelia itself does not require Django, but it
works great with django-test-extensions behind it!)
Morelia lets you write business rules in plain English:
Scenario the customer bought too much
When the customer bought $999 worth of swag
Then we send them a free tee-shirt
Scenario the customer bought too little much
When the customer bought $800 worth of swag
Then we don't send them a free tee-shirt
When you run your unit tests, Morelia builds a test case out of each
Scenario, and calls steps in your test suite whose doc-strings match
the step definitions, as regular expressions:
def step_the_customer_bought_(self, more_than):
r'the customer bought \$(\d+) worth of swag'
self.customer = get_some_customer()
self.customer.total_sales = int(more_than)
def step_we_might_send_them_a_free_tee_shirt(self, might):
r'we (don't send|send) them a free tee-shirt'
qualified = might == 'send'
assert self.customer.qualifies_for_free('tee-shirt') ==
qualified
Note that you can pass variables between steps using the self handle.
Another write-up for Morelia, for those who already grok BDD, appears
