Hi all, I am wondering what is the standard doctest (test) practice for functions who's returned value change all the time e.g. forex rate:
import urllib def get_rate(symbol): """get_rate(symbol) connects to yahoo finance to return the rate of symbol. >>>get_rate('AUDEUR') """ url= "http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=%s=X&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv" % \ symbol f=urllib.urlopen(url) return float(f.readline().split(',')[1]) As you can guess I am very new to unittest and doctest in general ...
