Well, in a way, perhaps. But not in the sense that Pry is. In Pry you can nest test fixtures (setUp/tearDown pairs) within test fixtures, allowing arbitrarily deep fixture hierarchies. You can then address any sub-tree in this hierarchy from the command-line. This structure turns out to be terribly useful in practice, when, for example, developing database applications. > Anyway, I don't think comparisions with nose is fair, because nose is > the best of the best and all other test runners fall short of it. :) I'll take your word for it. ;) Unfortunately, the more bang per line of code argument won't do, since the number of lines of code in your nose example and the Pry example matches almost exactly. Unless, of course, you were joking and that was precisely the point you were trying to make... in which case I apologise and you can ignore this... ;) Regards, Aldo -- Aldo Cortesi M: +61 419 492 863 P: +61 1300 887 007 W: www.nullcube.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
