I'm curious if anyone has ever tried using nosetests along with minimock.
I'm trying to get the two to play nice and not making progress. I also wonder if I'm using minimock incorrectly. Here's the code I want to test, saved in a file dtfun.py. class Chicken(object): "I am a chicken." def x(self): return 1 def z(self): return 1 def g(): """ Verify that we call method x on an instance of the Chicken class. # First set up the mockery. >>> from minimock import Mock >>> Chicken = Mock('Chicken') >>> Chicken.mock_returns = Mock('instance_of_chicken') Now this stuff is the real test. >>> g() Called Chicken() Called instance_of_chicken.x() """ # This is what the function does. c = Chicken() c.x() if __name__ == "__main__": # First set up the mockery. from minimock import Mock Chicken = Mock('Chicken') Chicken.mock_returns = Mock('instance_of_chicken') # Now run the tests. import doctest doctest.testmod() Here's the results when I run the code using doctest.testmod (which passes) and nosetests --with-doctest (KABOOM): $ python dtfun.py # Nothing is a good thing here. $ nosetests --with-doctest dtfun.py F ====================================================================== FAIL: Doctest: dtfun.g ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "doctest.py", line 2112, in runTest raise self.failureException(self.format_failure(new.getvalue())) AssertionError: Failed doctest test for dtfun.g File "/home/matt/svn-checkouts/scratch/python/dtfun/dtfun.py", line 13, in g ---------------------------------------------------------------------- File "/home/matt/svn-checkouts/scratch/python/dtfun/dtfun.py", line 22, in dtfun.g Failed example: g() Expected: Called Chicken() Called instance_of_chicken.x() Got nothing ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 1 test in 0.015s FAILED (failures=1) It seems like nose isn't building the mock objects.
