Hello,
I am facing a bit of a problem due to python implicitly attaching a type to an object. I will briefly tell you the problem that I am facing. I am trying to print the docstring of a test case in my pyUnit base test class. I accept the name of the test class as a command line option. So instead of printing the docstring of the test case, it prints the docString of a string object.
I would like to give an example here
import test_script gettatr( test_script.test_class.test_case, ‘__doc__’)
With this simple code, I am able to print the docstring of the test case.
However, since I accept the test case information as a command line option. So instead of printing the docstring of the test case it prints the docstring of a string object. => 'str(object) -> string\n\nReturn a nice string representation of the object.\nIf the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.'
Is there someway, I can tell the script to change the type of the object from string to an instancetype of a test case?
I am quite a newbie in python so I would appreciate any help on this.
Regards, Deepali
