test exclusion for nose with blacklists
Project description
nose-blacklist is a plugin for nose that provides a powerful way of skipping tests without requiring code changes.
Test cases are excluded by regex matching
Tests cases are matched by their fully-qualified names, including the module, class, and function/method names.
Tests to skip can be sourced from one or more files, or from cli arguments
Quickstart
$ pip install nose-blacklist
$ nosetests --with-blacklist \
--blacklist=<pattern1> \
--blacklist=<pattern2> \
mytests/
Blacklist strings can be specified from one or more files. Blacklist files can be used in conjunction with the --blacklist arguments.
$ cat blacklist.txt
test_thing
# test_other_thing
test_third_thing
$ nosetests --with-blacklist \
--blacklist-file=blacklist.txt \
mytests/
The blacklist file should have a single pattern per line, as above. Any line starting with a # is commented and will be ignored.
