Short update on what I've settled for generating test functions for various
input data:
# test case with common test function
class MyTest(unittest.TestCase):
def _test_invert_flags(self, input, flags, expected):
res = do_invert(input, flags)
self.assertEqual(res, expected)
# test definitions for the various invert flags
tests = [((10, 20), INVERT_NONE, (10, 20)),
((10, 20), INVERT_X, (-10, 20)),
((10, 20), INVERT_Y, (10, -20))]
# add test to the test case class
for input, flags, expected in tests:
def test(self):
self._test_invert_flags(input, flags, expected)
test.__doc__ = "testing invert flags %s" % flags
setattr(MyTest, "test_invert_flags_%s" % flags, test)
Yes, the names of the test functions would clash if I tested the same flags
twice, in the real code that doesn't happen (enumerate is my friend!).
Thanks all!
