nose-pudb 1.0

A nose plugin for dropping into pudb on test errors or failures.

The nose-pudb plugin provides the integration between the nose testing framework and the pudb console-based visual debugger. Instead of collecting and displaying the test results, the test runner can drop into the debugger on test errors and/or failures.

This is similar to the nose’s built-in pdb plugin which uses the debugger from the python standard library.

Please submit bugs and patches on https://github.com/AntoineD/nose-pudb/issues.

This plugin has been originally developed by Antti Kaihola.
