Class param Represents a single parameter to a test case.
Class parameterized Parameterize a test case:
Function default_doc_func Undocumented
Function default_name_func Undocumented
Function detect_runner Guess which test runner we're using by traversing the stack and looking for the first matching module. This should be reasonably safe, as it's done during test discovery where the test runner should be the stack frame immediately outside.
Function parameterized_argument_value_pairs Return tuples of parameterized arguments and their values.
Function set_test_runner Undocumented
Function short_repr A shortened repr of x which is guaranteed to be unicode:
Variable _param Undocumented
Variable _test_runner_aliases Undocumented
Variable _test_runner_guess Undocumented
Variable _test_runner_override Undocumented
Variable _test_runners Undocumented

Guess which test runner we're using by traversing the stack and looking for the first matching module. This should be reasonably safe, as it's done during test discovery where the test runner should be the stack frame immediately outside.

def parameterized_argument_value_pairs(func, p): (source)

Return tuples of parameterized arguments and their values.

This is useful if you are writing your own doc_func function and need to know the values for each parameter name:

>>> def func(a, foo=None, bar=42, **kwargs): pass
>>> p = param(1, foo=7, extra=99)
>>> parameterized_argument_value_pairs(func, p)
[("a", 1), ("foo", 7), ("bar", 42), ("**kwargs", {"extra": 99})]

If the function's first argument is named self then it will be ignored:

>>> def func(self, a): pass
>>> p = param(1)
>>> parameterized_argument_value_pairs(func, p)
[("a", 1)]

Additionally, empty *args or **kwargs will be ignored:

>>> def func(foo, *args): pass
>>> p = param(1)
>>> parameterized_argument_value_pairs(func, p)
[("foo", 1)]
>>> p = param(1, 16)
>>> parameterized_argument_value_pairs(func, p)
[("foo", 1), ("*args", (16, ))]

Undocumented

def short_repr(x, n=64): (source)

A shortened repr of x which is guaranteed to be unicode:

>>> short_repr("foo")

u"foo" >>> short_repr("123456789", n=4) u"12...89"
