I got a request, off-list, for more info, so here is some:
PyTap will, when it's done, provide a simple, assertive
(Test::Builder/More-like) interface for writing tests in Python. It will
output TAP and will include the functionality found in Test::Builder and
Test::More. It will try to make it easy to add more test code (so you can
write your own TAP.StringDiff, for example.
Right now, it's got a fair bit of the basics needed to emulate Test::More, and
I think it's easy to add more stuff -- just like Test::Builder, there's a
singleton that you can get at easily.
I need to better identify and finish implementing the most basic tests. I am
not a Python guru, I just use it from time to time, so my aim may not be true.
I need to write tests for it, which means either relying on Perl for the tester
tester, or writing one in Python.
Here's a sample test, as found in my Subversion:
from TAP.Simple import *
plan(15)
ok(1)
ok(1, "everything is OK!")
ok(0, "always fails")
is_ok(10, 10, "is ten ten?")
is_ok(ok, ok, "even ok is ok!")
ok(id(ok), "ok is not the null pointer")
ok(True, "the Truth will set you ok")
ok(not False, "and nothing but the truth")
ok(False, "and we'll know if you lie to us")
isa_ok(10, int, "10")
isa_ok('ok', str, "some string")
ok(0, "zero is true", todo="be more like Ruby!")
ok(None, "none is true", skip="not possible in this universe")
eq_ok("not", "equal", "two strings are not equal");
