helpers for asserting deprecation and other warnings.
=====================================================
.. contents::
:local:
Example usage
---------------------
You can use the ``recwarn`` funcarg to track
warnings within a test function:
.. sourcecode:: python
def test_hello(recwarn):
from warnings import warn
warn("hello", DeprecationWarning)
w = recwarn.pop(DeprecationWarning)
assert issubclass(w.category, DeprecationWarning)
assert 'hello' in str(w.message)
assert w.filename
assert w.lineno
You can also call a global helper for checking
taht a certain function call yields a Deprecation
warning:
.. sourcecode:: python
import py
def test_global():
py.test.deprecated_call(myfunction, 17)
.. _`recwarn funcarg`:
the 'recwarn' test function argument
------------------------------------
Return a WarningsRecorder instance that provides these methods:
* ``pop(category=None)``: return last warning matching the category.
* ``clear()``: clear list of warnings
