Extensible Python Test Runner
Project description
haas is a Python test runner that is backward-compatible with Python’s built-in unittest Test Cases, but supports more advanced features, such as project-specific plugins.
Features
Runs unittest.TestCase based tests!
Plugin system, based on stevedore.
Still subject to change and revision to clean the plugin APIs.
Plugins for whole-test-run environment configuration (run before any client-code is imported).
Plugins for test result output formatting.
Plugins for test runner scheme (e.g. parallel runner)
Generic test result collection, presentation & output handled by plugins.
(Very) Basic parallel test run support.
Missing (unittest) Features
Does not support the unittest.load_tests protocol.
Does not support subtests.
Future Features
Per-project config file
Improve parallel test runner to allow conditional splitting of tests, or allow tests to be run in the main process.
Improve plugin system
More result output plugins/options (xunit, result summary)
