Are we looking at the same thing? The link you provided gives an example of using the unittest classes (not doctest), in which you can import anything you want since it is just a python file.
In the example is an example of executing your controllers in a web2py environment. Also the doctest example http://www.web2py.com/examples/default/examples#testing_examples anything in the >>> is python code so you can import modules if you want. Also, the doctests have access to the web2py environment, so they have access to db. -Thadeus On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 12:49 PM, Jon Romero <[email protected]> wrote: > I've read about web2py and unit testing and I tried many things. > These are my thoughts (please correct me If I am wrong) > > 1. web2py uses doctests. doctests must be inside the controller > (increasing the noise) and are not flexible.
