Parametered tests have the same issue. In this case you simply don't use subtests or test cases. On the other hand, the issue doesn't exist in most cases where you iterate over three or four different cases. > addMessage was just one suggestion. It is quite orthogonal, actually, and could be added independently. Also, it is not clear how you would limit the addMessage to a subtest, rather than the whole test case. We could re-use testtools' addDetail idea, although their content-type thing is a bit heavyweight: I'd rather duck-type the API. http://testtools.readthedocs.org/en/latest/for-test-authors.html#details ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16997> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
