This leads to a few guidelines to be followed:</p> <ul> <li><p class="first">The testing suite should exercise all classes, functions, and constants. This includes not just the external API that is to be presented to the outside world but also “private” code.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Whitebox testing (examining the code being tested when the tests are being written) is preferred. Blackbox testing (testing only the published user interface) is not complete enough to make sure all boundary and edge cases are tested.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Make sure all possible values are tested including invalid ones. This makes sure that not only all valid values are acceptable but also that improper values are handled correctly.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Exhaust as many code paths as possible. Test where branching occurs and thus tailor input to make sure as many different paths through the code are taken.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Add an explicit test for any bugs discovered for the tested code. This will make sure that the error does not crop up again if the code is changed in the future.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Make sure to clean up after your tests (such as close and remove all temporary files).</p> </li> <li><p class="first">If a test is dependent on a specific condition of the operating system then verify the condition already exists before attempting the test.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Import as few modules as possible and do it as soon as possible. This minimizes external dependencies of tests and also minimizes possible anomalous behavior from side-effects of importing a module.</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Try to maximize code reuse. On occasion, tests will vary by something as small as what type of input is used. Minimize code duplication by subclassing a basic test class with a class that specifies the input:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">TestFuncAcceptsSequences</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">unittest</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">TestCase</span><span class="p">):</span> <span class="n">func</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">mySuperWhammyFunction</span> <span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">test_func</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="bp">self</span><span class="p">):</span> <span class="bp">self</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">func</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="bp">self</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">arg</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">AcceptLists</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">TestFuncAcceptsSequences</span><span class="p">):</span> <span class="n">arg</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="mi">2</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="mi">3</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">AcceptStrings</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">TestFuncAcceptsSequences</span><span class="p">):</span> <span class="n">arg</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">'abc'</span> <span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">AcceptTuples</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">TestFuncAcceptsSequences</span><span class="p">):</span> <span class="n">arg</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="mi">2</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="mi">3</span><span class="p">)</span> </pre></div> </div> </li> </ul> <div class="admonition-see-also admonition seealso"> <p class="first admonition-title">See also</p> <dl class="last docutils"> <dt>Test Driven Development</dt> <dd>A book by Kent Beck on writing tests before code.</dd> </dl> </div> </div> <div class="section" id="running-tests-using-the-command-line-interface"> <span id="regrtest"></span><h2>25.5.2.

Running the script by itself automatically starts running all regression tests in the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-test" title="test: Regression tests package containing the testing suite for Python."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test</span></tt></a> package. It does this by finding all modules in the package whose name starts with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">test_</span></tt>, importing them, and executing the function <tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">test_main()</span></tt> if present. The names of tests to execute may also be passed to the script. Specifying a single regression test (<strong class="program">python -m test.regrtest test_spam</strong>) will minimize output and only print whether the test passed or failed and thus minimize output.</p> <p>Running <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.regrtest</span></tt> directly allows what resources are available for tests to use to be set. You do this by using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-u</span></tt> command-line option. Specifying <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">all</span></tt> as the value for the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-u</span></tt> option enables all possible resources: <strong class="program">python -m test -uall</strong>. If all but one resource is desired (a more common case), a comma-separated list of resources that are not desired may be listed after <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">all</span></tt>. The command <strong class="program">python -m test.regrtest -uall,-audio,-largefile</strong> will run <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.regrtest</span></tt> with all resources except the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">audio</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">largefile</span></tt> resources. For a list of all resources and more command-line options, run <strong class="program">python -m test.regrtest -h</strong>.</p> <p>Some other ways to execute the regression tests depend on what platform the tests are being executed on. On Unix, you can run <strong class="program">make test</strong> at the top-level directory where Python was built. On Windows, executing <strong class="program">rt.bat</strong> from your <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">PCBuild</span></tt> directory will run all regression tests.</p> </div> </div> <div class="section" id="module-test.test_support"> <span id="test-test-support-utility-functions-for-tests"></span><h1>25.6. <a class="reference internal" href="#module-test.test_support" title="test.test_support: Support for Python regression tests."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.test_support</span></tt></a> — Utility functions for tests<a class="headerlink" href="#module-test.test_support" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1> <div class="admonition note"> <p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> <p class="last">The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-test.test_support" title="test.test_support: Support for Python regression tests."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.test_support</span></tt></a> module has been renamed to <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.support</span></tt> in Python 3.x.</p> </div> <p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-test.test_support" title="test.test_support: Support for Python regression tests."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">test.test_support</span></tt></a> module provides support for Python’s regression tests.</p> <p>This module defines the following exceptions:</p> <dl class="exception"> <dt id="test.test_support.TestFailed"> <em class="property">exception </em><tt class="descclassname">test.test_support.</tt><tt class="descname">TestFailed</tt><a class="headerlink" href="#test.test_support.TestFailed" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>Exception to be raised when a test fails.
