PyUnit and Decorators

Python

One of the shortcomings of the Python standard library is in my opinion that PyUnit doesn't use decorators (as later versions of JUnit and NUnit do). Therefore I have written a sample implementation that adds decorator support. (unittest.py; diff to Python 2.5's unittest.py)

To do:

  • Warn when old-style and new-style tests are mixed.
  • Throw an exception when multiple setup or teardown methods exist.
  • Ability to warn when old-style methods are used.
