How about raising failureException : I was thinking of using failureException instead of fail() method , If I replace my code with raise unittest.TestCase.failureException("class setup failed") The script show the below output , this looks fine for me. Do you see any problems with this ? gpal-ae9703e-1# python unitest1.py ERROR:root:Failed scanning E ====================================================================== ERROR: setUpClass (__main__.ScanTest) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "unitest1.py", line 20, in setUpClass raise unittest.TestCase.failureException("class setup failed") AssertionError: class setup failed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 0 tests in 0.000s FAILED (errors=1) 2. I find assert and raise RunTimeError also fitting my program ,please suggest whats best form unittest fixture point of view. if not self.scan: logging.error("Failed scanning ") assert False, "Class setup failed skipping test" if not self.scan: logging.error("Failed scanning ") raise RuntimeError. My overall ,idea is Setup class fails then don't run any of the next statements and exit the tests. Regards, Ganesh -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
