Take a look at TestLoader.loadTestsFromName(). It does much more than look up test files, it can also look up individual classes or methods. > - In py.test you'll get a console output like "5 tests passed, 1 test failed, > 12 tests deselected".

I'm not sure what the point of displaying the number of "deselected" tests is: that information doesn't sound very useful in itself. But in any case, marking them skipped feels wrong to me. Most often, skipping a test is an indication that the current system is not fit to run it (such as not enough RAM, or lacking a third-party library, or being the wrong OS entirely). > Are you still saying this should go to the test loader? IMHO, yes. Looking at your posted implementation, at least I don't think TestSuite is the place for it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32071> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
