Thanks, Michael, for the information. I copied the file unittest.py
from my IronPython 2.6 installation to my IronPython 2.7 installation.
It did seem to work, although discovering that in 2.7 unittest is a
directory containing a number of other files, was a bit disconcerting.
I renamed the v2.7 unittest directory (to unittest.000) and then
copied unittest.py from the IronPython 2.6 installation.
I greatly appreciate your help on this.
In Python 2.6 unittest was a single file (unittest.py). In Python 2.7 it
is a package (a directory containing several modules). The unittest
package in Python 2.7 is a lot more capable, but using the Python 2.6
version of unittest.py will certainly work.
All the best,

My team is currently using VS2010 for work. I want to demonstrate that
using IronPython as our "unit testing language" can be more productive
than using either NUnit or Microsoft Test.
In order to integrate with VS2010, I believe I must use IronPython
2.7a1. I believe this is the only release that includes the IronPython
Tools. However, IronPython 2.7a1 fails when executing 'import
unittest'. I've submitted a work item, 28709, to the IronPython issue
tracker; however, I'm wondering if another work around exists then
writing code in 2.6.1 -- which will execute outside VS2010 -- but
cannot be executed from within Visual Studio (it invoke IronPython 2.7a1).
The IronPython team is aware of this problem, it was caused by a 'bug'
in the tools that package the installer.
A simple workaround (that will probably work) is to copy the unittest
package from a CPython 2.7 installation into your IronPython Lib
directory. In IronPython 2.7 the unittest package is missing some files.

Thanks.
Have a great day!
