This nose plugin is very simple, which is for users who use test_steps in nose framework. Use this plugin, the function detection mechanism is using nose prepareTestCase to do it, instead of using the original mechanism, which requires users know more about the auto-function-detection while writing scripts originally.

Install nose-autochecklog

::

pip install nose-autochecklog

Using

Given the following tests (suppose it is in file /test_steps_example/test1.py)

.. code-block:: python

from test_steps import *
import random
def test_example():
    ok("just pass the check and log it")
    #fail("Just fail the check and log it")
    ok(3+2 == 5, "pass if expr else fail")
    #eq("Shanghai", "Beijing", "Shanghai not equal to Beijing")
    eq(4+5, 9)
    ne("Shanghai", "Beijing", "Pass, Shanghai not equal to Beijing")
    #'Shanghai City' contains 'Country', the second parameter could be regex
    check(" 'Shanghai City' =~ 'Country' ", warning=True)
    unmatch("Shanghai City", "Country", "Pass, not contains, regex can be used too")
    check('random.uniform(1,20) > 15', repeat=5)

running it with nosetest using nose-autochecklog plugin::

nosetests --with-autochecklog

Then, you will get the following log in logfile /tmp/test_yyyymmdd_hhmm.log by default like::

Btw, you can change the log file and format by using test_steps functions.
