The testresource package is used in Cloud Deck and it works very well. Storm has a builtin ZStormResourceManager that can be used to wire up tests that need the database. Something I miss (and maybe I just don't where they are) is a set of obvious stock resources. I've written some (for managing temporary directories and files and for mocking stdout): http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jkakar/commandant/trunk/view/head:/commandant/testing/resources.py Thanks, J. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
