CLOUDSTACK-8394: Use custom decorator to skip test case When the tests are skipped through setUpClass, the statement "raise unittest.SkipTest()" is used. This is seen as exception in the logs. To avoid this, alternatively we can set class level variable in setUpClass and read this variable value in a custom decorator. Decorator will skip or run test cases accordingly. This patch demonstrates that, when test is run on a hypervisor on which the feature is not supported, we set "hypervisorNotSupported" variable to True and pass this variable as argument to the decorator. Decorator gets the value of this attribute, examines it, if it's true, skips the test case, or else runs the test case as it is. Also the expensive steps in setUpClass are run only if hypervisor is supported. Miscellaneous changes: 1. Fix import * 2. Remove unused variables You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/gauravaradhye/cloudstack 8394 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/190.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #190 ---- commit a0451060dd404eede895c847361b956b480c4010 Author: Gaurav Aradhye <gaurav.arad...@clogeny.com> Date: 2015-04-24T08:45:37Z CLOUDSTACK-8394: Use custom decorator to skip test case ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
