dualtest 1.0.1

Usage

Create a test case class derived from DualTestCase and set the import_names or import_from_names class attributes.

import_names should be set to a list of the names of modules with Python source and C extension versions to import:

class ImportTestCase(DualTestCase):
    import_names = ['mod1', 'mod2']

    def test_something(self):
        # mod1 and mod2 will be available here.

import_from_names causes attributes to be imported from modules just like from module import attribute would. It should be set to a list of tuples containing the name of the module to import from, and a list of attribute names to import. If one of the attribute names is “*”, then all public attributes are imported:

class ImportFromTestCase(DualTestCase):
    import_from_names = [
        ('mod1', ['attr1', 'attr2']),
        # "*" causes all public attributes to be imported.
        ('mod2', ['*']),
        ]

    def test_something(self):
        # attr1, attr2 and everything from mod2 will be available here.

Full Example

from dualtest import DualTestCase


class ImportTestCase(DualTestCase):
    import_names = ['mod1', 'mod2']

    def test_something(self):
        # mod1 and mod2 will be available here.


class ImportFromTestCase(DualTestCase):
    import_from_names = [
        ('mod1', ['attr1', 'attr2']),
        # "*" causes all public attributes to be imported.
        ('mod2', ['*']),
        ]

    def test_something(self):
        # attr1, attr2 and everything from mod2 will be available here.
