Hello Team, I have written a small program using python unit test framework . I need your guidance to find out
1. If I have used the fixtures and classes properly ( first oop program) :) ) 2. why does unittest2.SkipTest not print the message when the failures are encountered ? 3. Also sys.stderr.write("Test run failed ({e})".format(e=e) ) does not display error on failure ? 4. Any other general comment's Iam on Python 2.6 and using Linux Sample code: class FileSystemTest(unittest2.TestCase): block_address = {} report = "" @classmethod def setUpClass(cls): cls.FileSystemSetup() @classmethod def FileSystemSetup(cls): """ Initial setup before unittest is run """ logging.info("SETUP.....Started !!!") try: inode_01 = corrupt.get_lin(os.path.join(CORRUPT_DIR,"inode_lin.txt")) test_01_log = os.path.join(LOG_DIR, "test_01_corrupt.log") cls.block_address['test_01'] = corrupt.inject_corruption(test_01_log, lin=inode_01, object="inode", offset="18", size="4", optype="set") time.sleep(10) except Exception, e: logging.error(e) raise unittest2.SkipTest("class setup failed") if not corrupt.run_scanner(): raise unittest2.SkipTest("class setup failed") else: try: cls.report = corrupt.run_report() except Exception, e: logging.error(e) raise unittest2.SkipTest("class setup failed") logging.info("SETUP.....Done !!!") def inode_corruption(self): """ test_01: inode corruption """ self.assertTrue(corrupt.run_query_tool(self.__class__.report, self.block_address['test_01'])) @classmethod def tearDownClass(cls): cls.tearDown() @classmethod def tearDown(cls): print "Entered tearDown()" try: cls.cleanup = cleanup() except Exception, e: logging.error(e) def main(): """ ---MAIN--- """ global LOG_DIR try: if len(sys.argv) > 1: LOG_DIR = str(sys.argv[1]) except Exception, e: print(USAGE) return errno.EINVAL functions = [create_logdir,create_dataset,corrupt.prep_cluster] for func in functions: try: func() except Exception, e: logging.error(e) sys.stderr.write("Test run failed ({e})".format(e=e)) unittest2.main() if __name__ == '__main__': main() PS : Happy New year Wishes to all the form members !!
