For what it's worth, I've been using nose for quite a long time and the first reason I did so is, like you, because I wanted to write tests in a light way (without having to declare classes). Then after writing some dozens of tests I switched back to wrapping tests in classes, just because it makes tests more readable and better organized (especially when you come to have setup/teardown functions shared by several tests). (but nose is still very nice) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
