Tests are launched by nose, and you have to tell it to use the funq plugin.
Basically:
nosetests --with-funq
The command must be started from the folder containing tests files and the funq.conf configuration file.
Note
There are many options for nose, and some specifics to the funq plugin. See nosetests --help for an exhaustive list.
Example:
# launch tests with all stdout/stderr output and stop on the first error
nosetests --with-funq -s -x
Every nose option may be specified by default in a file named setup.cfg. You can look at the nose documentation for more informations.
Example:
[nosetests]
verbosity=2
with-funq=1
Note
This configuration is very useful, and allow to type only nosetests on the command line instead of nosetests --with-funq -vv. I highly recommend this configuration and I will use it in the following documentation.
It s possible to select tests to launch using nose.
Example:
# every tests in a given file
nosetests test_export.py
# every tests of a given class in a test file
nosetests test_export.py:TestExportElectre
# just one test (one method)
nosetests test_export.py:TestExportElectre.test_export_b6
Note
See the nose documeation fo more information.
If the verbosity option is equal to 2, the tests execution will show test names with the same format. This means that you can then copy/paste a test name to restart it.
