nose-compatibility plugin: allow to run nose test suites natively.
==================================================================


.. contents::
  :local:

This is an experimental plugin for allowing to run tests written 
in 'nosetests style with py.test.   

Usage
-------------

type::

    py.test  # instead of 'nosetests'

and you should be able to run nose style tests and at the same
time can make full use of py.test's capabilities.  

Supported nose Idioms
----------------------

* setup and teardown at module/class/method level
* SkipTest exceptions and markers 
* setup/teardown decorators
* yield-based tests and their setup 
* general usage of nose utilities 

Unsupported idioms / issues
----------------------------------

- nose-style doctests are not collected and executed correctly,
  also fixtures don't work. 

- no nose-configuration is recognized 

If you find other issues or have suggestions please run:: 

    py.test --pastebin=all 

and send the resulting URL to a py.test contact channel,
at best to the mailing list.

remove dist-testing and looponfail code from core. there remain some (pytest_runner particularly) tests that test both plain and dist modes which cannot be easily dis-entangled. food for thought. --HG-- branch : trunk 2010-01-13 23:00:33 +08:00			`==================================================================`
