First, thank you to all of the PyDev developers for all of the hard work and effort you've put into PyDev. I've spent the better part of the last year using PyDev under Windows and Linux, for several projects (big and small), and I'm about to start another project using it. This will be my second major project using Django, and it is going to have a serious focus on unit testing. PyDev has some marvelous support for running unit tests within Eclipse, and reporting the test results using PyUnit. Unfortunately, that support falls apart if you want to run unit tests for Django applications, and I'm not certain why. Admittedly, Django does want to set up its environment (primarily to ensure that test databases have been properly created and initialized) before starting testing, but it still uses unittest (or nose) for testing, so it ought to be possible to produce a test runner that will cope with Django tests. The best (only) way that I've found to run Django unit tests is to create a run configuration that runs the Django test runner. While this works, it results in all of the testing output going to the console, and nothing gets sent to the PyUnit window. What I would like is the ability to run all (or some) of the unit tests in a Django project, and see the results in the PyUnit window. Perhaps then I'd also get to see how well the code coverage tools work. Presumably this would involve writing a Django-specific testrunner, but that shouldn't be that hard, right? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
