     Some thoughts we had while toying with Gerrit, which artificially tracks different commits to group them as "patch sets", by using a Change-Id SHA-1 in the commit message:

645. Python unit testing frameworks: Nose, Pytest 2015-02-13

     tags: code, coverage, feature, nose, programming/python, programming/python/pytest, programming/testing, quality, unit

     [ permalink ]

     Python's built-in unittest module is quite cool, but a bit limited and way too verbose (read: it's quite not easy to incite developers to write unit tests)

     I'm currently looking for more dev-friendly solutions, the key points being:

     • writing test code should be easy and straight-forward -keep the focus on "what to test" instead of "how to transcribe a process to a test"
     • parallelization! -we, spoiled developers, should make good use of our way-too-many-cores build machines...
     • complete feature set!
       • we don't want to just run tests...
       • coverage reports (find dead/weak/untested code sections)
       • output formatting (JUnit-XML seems to be quite a common format out there)

     There seem to be 3 solutions in Python:

     • stock unittest + project-dependent customizations / test helpers
     • nosetests
     • py.test

     And 2 ways of gettings things done:

     • keeping things stock: no external dependency, project-specific implementation...
     • using a test framework: one more module in your (test) virtualenv, more concise tests, more features (// run, code coverage, etc.)

     Website generating a playlist / web player from YouTube and SoundCloud links from music subreddits (or, basically, any subreddit containing media stuff).

     Sadly, it doesn't seem to be Open Source, so you won't be able to host you own instance :-(
