Hi! The unittest module will invoke sys.exit() after running the tests in order to signal success or failure. However, I sometimes don't want to exit the interpreter but instead e.g. inspect some state or just keep the window open. Normally, using '-i' as commandline argument works, but not in the case here.
My questions are: 1. Is that a bug? After all, an explicit request on the commandline was ignored. Is it perhaps simply wrong how the unittest module handles error/success signalling? 2. I can catch the SystemExit exception and ignore it, but that doesn't actually help, because then I get a normal exit even in case of failures. Of course, I could pass that value to sys.exit(), but then I'd be back at the start. Any suggestions?
