The -s option shown in `python3 -m unittest -h` is grouped under help for discover. Options for a discover command don't necessarily apply to the unittest command itself. $ python3 -m unittest -h usage: python3 -m unittest [-h] [-v] [-q] [--locals] [-f] [-c] [-b] [-k TESTNAMEPATTERNS] [tests [tests ...]] positional arguments: tests a list of any number of test modules, classes and test methods. optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Verbose output -q, --quiet Quiet output --locals Show local variables in tracebacks -f, --failfast Stop on first fail or error -c, --catch Catch Ctrl-C and display results so far -b, --buffer Buffer stdout and stderr during tests -k TESTNAMEPATTERNS Only run tests which match the given substring Examples: python3 -m unittest test_module - run tests from test_module python3 -m unittest module.TestClass - run tests from module.TestClass python3 -m unittest module.Class.test_method - run specified test method python3 -m unittest path/to/test_file.py - run tests from test_file.py usage: python3 -m unittest discover [-h] [-v] [-q] [--locals] [-f] [-c] [-b] [-k TESTNAMEPATTERNS] [-s START] [-p PATTERN] [-t TOP] optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Verbose output -q, --quiet Quiet output --locals Show local variables in tracebacks -f, --failfast Stop on first fail or error -c, --catch Catch Ctrl-C and display results so far -b, --buffer Buffer stdout and stderr during tests -k TESTNAMEPATTERNS Only run tests which match the given substring -s START, --start-directory START Directory to start discovery ('.' default) -p PATTERN, --pattern PATTERN Pattern to match tests ('test*.py' default) -t TOP, --top-level-directory TOP Top level directory of project (defaults to start directory) For test discovery all test modules must be importable from the top level directory of the project. ---------- nosy: +xtreak _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41253> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
