New submission from Petter Strandmark <petter.strandm...@gmail.com>:
I am wondering whether it would be useful for unittest.TestCase to
automatically run test methods that are coroutines within the default asyncio
loop.
Example:
class TestAsync(unittest.TestCase):
async def test_foo(self):
result = await foo()
self.assertEqual(result, 42)
the test runner would then run test_foo within the default loop. If needed, we
could also add functionality for providing a loop other than the default to the
test class.
It seems to me that this functionality would be pretty easy to add to
Lib/unittest/case.py:615 .
Personally, I think it would be useful. Right now I have to append every test
case with a personal @run_in_loop decorator and I think unittest.TestCase could
do this for me without breaking anything.
