That is not unit testing, that is functional testing.
If you want to unit test your controller and run it in isolation you
need to do a bit of setup work in your test case. I use this:
from unittest import TestCase
from paste.registry import Registry
import pylons
from pylons.util import ContextObj
from pylons.controllers.util import Request
class MockTranslator:
def ugettext(self, value):
return value
class PylonsTestCase(TestCase):
"""A basic test case which allows access to pylons.c and pylons.request.
"""
def setUp(self):
self.registry=Registry()
self.registry.prepare()
self.context_obj=ContextObj()
self.registry.register(pylons.c, self.context_obj)
self.request_obj=Request(dict(HTTP_HOST="nohost"))
self.registry.register(pylons.request, self.request_obj)
self.translator_obj=MockTranslator()
self.registry.register(pylons.translator, self.translator_obj)
If you just need database access you can use this:
class DatabaseTestCase(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
init_model(meta.engine)
meta.metadata.create_all(meta.engine)
def tearDown(self):
meta.Session.remove()
meta.metadata.drop_all(meta.engine)
and if you need both just inherit from both classes (and call setUp from both).
