haas is a Python test runner that is backward-compatible with Python's built-in unittest Test Cases, but supports more advanced features, such as project-specific plugins.

Features

• Runs unittest.TestCase based tests!

• Plugin system, based on stevedore_.

  • Still subject to change and revision to clean the plugin APIs.

  • Plugins for whole-test-run environment configuration (run before any client-code is imported).

  • Plugins for test result output formatting.

  • Plugins for test runner scheme (e.g. parallel runner)

• Generic test result collection, presentation & output handled by plugins.

• (Very) Basic parallel test run support.

.. _stevedore: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/stevedore

Missing (unittest) Features

• Does not support the unittest.load_tests protocol.

• Does not support subtests.

Future Features

• Per-project config file

• Improve parallel test runner to allow conditional splitting of tests, or allow tests to be run in the main process.

• Improve plugin system

• More result output plugins/options (xunit, result summary)

• ... ?
