twisted.trial.unittest : API documentation

Class	FailTest	Raised to indicate the current test has failed to pass.
Class	SkipTest	Raise this (with a reason) to skip the current test. You may also set method.skip to a reason string to skip it, or set class.skip to skip the entire TestCase.
Class	SynchronousTestCase	A unit test. The atom of the unit testing universe.
Class	Todo	No summary
Function	makeTodo	Return a `Todo` object built from `value`.
Class	TestCase	A unit test. The atom of the unit testing universe.
Class	TestSuite	Extend the standard library's `TestSuite` with support for the visitor pattern and a consistently overrideable `run` method.
Function	suiteVisit	Visit each test in `suite` with `visitor`.
Function	decorate	Decorate all test cases in `test` with `decorator`.

def makeTodo(value): (source)

Return a Todo object built from value.

If value is a string, return a Todo that expects any exception with value as a reason. If value is a tuple, the second element is used as the reason and the first element as the excepted error(s).

Parameters	value	A string or a tuple of `(errors, reason)`, where `errors` is either a single exception class or an iterable of exception classes.
Returns	A `Todo` object.

def suiteVisit(suite, visitor): (source)

Visit each test in suite with visitor.

Deprecated in Twisted 8.0.

Parameters	visitor	A callable which takes a single argument, the `TestCase` instance to visit.
Returns	None

def decorate(test, decorator): (source)

Decorate all test cases in test with decorator.

test can be a test case or a test suite. If it is a test suite, then the structure of the suite is preserved.

decorate tries to preserve the class of the test suites it finds, but assumes the presence of the _tests attribute on the suite.

Parameters	test	The `TestCase` or `TestSuite` to decorate.
	decorator	A unary callable used to decorate `TestCase`s.
Returns	A decorated `TestCase` or a `TestSuite` containing decorated `TestCase`s.
