Testing Frameworks in Python

Posted by Hemos on from the smoothering-the-code dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This article looks at Python's two standard modules for unit testing: unittest and doctest. These modules expand on the capability of the built-in assert statement, which is used for validation of pre-conditions and post-conditions within functions. The author discusses the best ways to incorporate testing into Python development, weighing the advantages of different styles for different types of projects."

  1. Different types of project ? by MosesJones · · Score: 1, Offtopic


    Call me silly here, but that article talks about developer ONLY testing, and doesn't seem to discuss different types of projects at all. This was about basic code testing, and mainly unit-test.

    No UAT, no System Test, no Integration Test... no how test cases should be defined.

    Please go an get a decent, non-language specific book on testing before reading and listening to this article.
