Hi all,
At last week's meeting we were discussing the limitations of nose as a
test runner, and entertaining the idea of switching to a more
appropriate test runner. I had mentioned that I had an proof of concept
test suite laying around for a runner called PyVows
(http://heynemann.github.com/pyvows/) that I've been vetting for use on
other projects, so I wanted to share. The instructions on getting it
running are in the README.
My very brief reasons for looking into this framework were that it's BDD
without the Cucumber-ish text, it's good at running tests in serial when
it needs to and in parallel when it can, and it's "expect" type of
assertions feel natural. The output is also very friendly to read.
