debug ( self )
Run the test case without results and without catching exceptions
The unit test framework includes a debug method on test cases
and test suites to support post-mortem debugging. The test code
is run in such a way that errors are not caught. This way a
caller can catch the errors and initiate post-mortem debugging.
The DocTestCase provides a debug method that raises
UnexpectedException errors if there is an unexepcted
exception:
>>> test = DocTestParser().get_doctest(>>> raise KeyError\n42,
... {}, foo, foo.py, 0)
>>> case = DocTestCase(test)
>>> try:
... case.debug()
... except UnexpectedException, failure:
... pass
The UnexpectedException contains the test, the example, and
the original exception:
>>> failure.test is test
True
>>> failure.example.want
42\n
>>> exc_info = failure.exc_info
>>> raise exc_info[0], exc_info[1], exc_info[2]
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
KeyError
If the output doesn't match, then a DocTestFailure is raised:
>>> test = DocTestParser().get_doctest('''
... >>> x = 1
... >>> x
... 2
... ''', {}, foo, foo.py, 0)
>>> case = DocTestCase(test)
>>> try:
... case.debug()
... except DocTestFailure, failure:
... pass
DocTestFailure objects provide access to the test:
>>> failure.test is test
True
As well as to the example:
>>> failure.example.want
'2\n'
and the actual output:
>>> failure.got
1\n
