New submission from alexander.sturm:
In the following example code, a SystemExit is raised in setUpClass of a
unittest.TestCase, which causes the python instance to terminate. This behavior
is inconsistent with how SystemExit is handled in other places (e.g. in
setUp/tearDown methods, or in actual test methods), where it is caught by
unittest to prevent termination. See also issue #10611.
import unittest
class Test(unittest.TestCase):
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
raise SystemExit()
def test_something(self):
pass
result = unittest.TestResult()
suite = unittest.TestSuite()
suite.addTest(unittest.defaultTestLoader.loadTestsFromTestCase(Test))
suite.run(result)
print result
