nose is nicer testing for python

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1.create a simple test generator function like:

def test_foo(): for i in range(10): yield foosleep, i

def foosleep(n): time.sleep(4)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Using --processes=10, all tests should complete in ~4s. Instead, it takes 40s since the next test does not start until the last is finished.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

1.0.0 on ubuntu 10.04 x86-64

Please provide any additional information below.

i'm guessing we need a way to collect all tests before they are sent to the parallelizer?

On Windows only, if I create a project that shares a namespace with another project on which it depends, and the child project has a packages=find_packages('src') parameter, the tests will fail when they reference the parent project.

I originally described the problem at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2008-June/009595.html

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. On Windows XP or Vista, install Python 2.5.2, setuptools==0.6c8
2. Expand the two packages, myns.projA and myns.projB from zip file (attached)
3. in myns.projA run "python setup.py develop" 3.5. Install nose manually; there appears to be a different issue if nose is installed via tests_require= during the same step as the tests are run.
4. In myns.projB run "python setup.py test"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? nosetests should run with "Ran 0 tests in 0.032s" (or similar). Instead, the error is received:

"C:\Users\jaraco\projects\distutils_namespace\myns.projB\test\testBasic.py", line 1, in from myns.projA.modA import funcA ImportError: No module named projA.modA

Please reference the distutils-sig thread for more details. Attached you will find the two sample projects that reproduce the issue.

More a question (because I am just starting to get my personal stuff over to python3).

When I pip-3.3 install nose, I see some warnings about the print statement but I thought that would be ok since it seems to be related to some plugins - and this is stated in the README.

However, it seems pip3 installs nose "successfully" (it claims) but nosetests-3.3 does not run.

nosetests-3.3 -h
<snip>
  File "/homebrew/lib/python3.3/site-packages/nose/core.py", line 143
    print "%s version %s" % (os.path.basename(sys.argv[0]), __version__)
                        ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

So my question? Do I have to build it from source via python3 setup.py install to get a working nosetests-3.3? I assumed that pip-3.3 just calls python3 setup.py underneath.

Please enlighten me. Thanks!

I'm not sure what's the proper place to ask questions about nose, so I'll ask my question here.

I very often use python setup.py nosetests to run tests for my Python apps. And I use python setup.py nosetests --tests ... to run specific tests. That worked well with nose 1.1.2, but it no longer works with 1.2.

With 1.2 all the tests are executed first, and then the ones specified using --tests. When I use --tests I'd like that only the specified tests get executed.

Is this a known issue? Are there any workarounds?

I tried to do python setup.py nosetests my/specific/test.py, but that does not work either. I get invalid command name 'my/specific/test.py', from distutils/setuptools I think.

in nose 0.9 when raising SkipTest, the exception would be caught and printed as a warning. Now, in 0.10 the SkipTest exception is raised like any other exception. This means the --stop option will stop on SkipTests which is unhelpful.

There should be an option in 0.10, something like --skip-quietly (although perhaps there is a better name) so that SkipTest can issue a warning but not a failure.

Suppose I just installed a virtualenv and some packages inside it

virtualenv myenv
. myenv/bin/activate
pip install nose 
pip install chumpy

and I have a test_case.py that looks like

import chumpy
import unittest

class TestKinematicTree(unittest.TestCase):
    pass

when I run nosetests test_case.py (from the virtualenv) I have

======================================================================
ERROR: Failure: ImportError (No module named chumpy)                  
----------------------------------------------------------------------

However, if I do

python -c "import nose; nose.main()"

it works without any problem (it works without any problem with python -m unittest discover ... as well). I tried with several nosetests options without any success. Any hint?

Thanks!

Nose trunk fails 3 tests with Python 3.4. (All tests pass with Python 3.3.)

Hey there,

We used to have everything working with Python 3.3 and now it's broken.

It seems like we should be able to use coverage's builtin html generation instead of rolling our own if coverage 3 is installed.

Hi,

I don't know if it is proper place to posted about this, but I discovered problem with python-nose in versions 1.3.1 and above. I'm using it for testing python-kombu in version 3.0.15 and with python2.6 and unittest in version 0.5.1. After update python-nose from 1.3.0 to 1.3.3. SkipTest stopped working in my dev. I have found that it is caused by this patch: https://github.com/nose-devs/nose/commit/395a1bff9919f083eba9eb45800692e8ab55728c

Behavior is that SkipTest class is not loading any more.

Please let me know where can I post this problem.

Forwarding a patch originally applied in Debian by Charlie Smotherman. This fixes indentation errors, and also fixes a bug when a line starting with a . was not visible.

$ nosetests --plugins
Traceback (most recent call last):

There's no 'require' clause in setup.py, so where is ConfigParser supposed to come from?

hi,everyone

my nosetests version is 0.10.4.

when i excute the nosetests -v -s --with-xunit command

display nosetests: error: no such option: --with-xunit on the linux terminal

what should I do slove this issue. hope you answer！

Hi, I tried to use -a and -A below at same time, looks like NOSE_EVAL_ATTR takes precedence over NOSE_ATTR, the -a ATTR has been ignored. Is it by design? is it possible to specify them at same time? Thanks.

-a=ATTR, --attr=ATTR Run only tests that have attributes specified by ATTR [NOSE_ATTR]

-A=EXPR, --eval-attr=EXPR Run only tests for whose attributes the Python expression EXPR evaluates to True [NOSE_EVAL_ATTR]

According to the file system hierarchy man page man pages should go to /usr/share/man not /usr/man as set in your setup.py. Replace man/man1 with share/man/man1 in that line.

This came up as reference in a similar issue in another project.

The distributed version of nose looks like this:

    def _set_tests(self, tests):
        self._precache = []
        is_suite = isinstance(tests, unittest.TestSuite)
        if isinstance(tests, collections.Callable) and not is_suite:

The same code in this repository is different: https://github.com/nose-devs/nose/blob/7c26ad1e6b7d308cafa328ad34736d34028c122a/nose/suite.py#L102-L105

According to git history the above has not changed in 15 years.

As a consequence the distributed version is not Python 3.10 compatible, and I don't know how to contribute a fix because it is apparently already fixed.

Is there any plans for a new version that contains the correct code?
