New submission from Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk>: A common way to extend unittest is to implement a custom TestResult. Currently you have to subclass TextTestRunner, overriding _makeResult, to get it to use an alternative result class.
I suggest adding an additional, optional, argument to TextTestRunner to specify an alternative result class (or callable) that will be used by _makeResult. This will permit the use of custom test result objects without having to subclass. ---------- assignee: michael.foord components: Extension Modules keywords: easy messages: 99129 nosy: michael.foord severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: unittest: have to subclass TextTestRunner to use alternative TestResult versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7893> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
