reahl-tofu 6.1.1

A testing framework that couples fixtures and tests loosely.

Reahl is a web application framework that allows a Python programmer to work in terms of useful abstractions - using a single programming language.

Tofu is part of the Reahl development tools. Tofu can be used independently of the Reahl web framework.

Tofu allows you to have a hierarchy of test fixtures that is completely decoupled from your hierarchy of tests or test suites. Tofu includes a number of other related test utilities. It also includes a plugin for nosetests that makes using it with nose seamless.

Tofu can also be used to run the set_ups of fixtures from the command line. This is useful for acceptance tests whose fixtures create data in databases that can be used for demonstration and user testing.
