A Python unittest TestResult that outputs JUnit compatible XML.
PyJUnitXML is Copyright (c) 2009 Robert Collins, and distributed under the GNU Library General Public Licence version 3 (LGPL-3). Broadly, this means you have the right to use this library in any application you want, regardless of the licence of your application, but that if you modify this library the modifications you make need to be released under a compatible terms if you convey the application to other users. For exact details see the COPYING and GPL-3 files included in the source.
To use PyJUnitXML you need to specify it as your TestResult when running
your tests using pyunit. One way of doing this is to invoke the test method
directly on your test suite::
import junitxml result = junitxml.JUnitXmlResult(sys.stdout) result.startTestRun() suite.run(result) result.stopTestRun()
The startTestRun and stopTestRun methods are new in python 2.7 and 3.1.
If you are using older versions of python, and do not invoke the test result
directly, you may find that no output occurs at all. This is likely because the
stopTestRun method is not being invoked, and you will need to arrange for it
to be invoked.
There is a command line runner you can use::
$ python -m junitxml.main discover
or
$ junitxml discover
If the package scripts have been installed.
My test runs, but nothing is output? Check that result.stopTestRun is being
called. Due to the XML file format requiring a header containing the test
counts, nothing is output until the test run has completed, and that is
signalled by the stopTestRun method being called.
PyJUnitXML is hosted on Launchpad at https://launchpad.net/pyjunitxml. Please file bugs, ask questions and so on at will.
The function junitxml.test_suite defines the junitxml test suite, you can use any runner you like. I personally use::
$ python -m subunit.run junitxml.test_suite | subunit2gtk
If you have testrepository you can simply run testr::
$ testr run
