Method Details

assertEqualToWithin(self, a, b, ratio=1e-07, msg=None)

source code

asserts that abs(a-b/(a+b))<ratio.

If a+b are an underflow, we error out right now.

assertOutput(self, toExec, argList, expectedStdout=None, expectedStderr=`''`, expectedRetcode=0, input=None, stdoutStrings=None)

source code

checks that execName called with argList has the given output and return value.

expectedStdout and expectedStderr can be functions. In that case, the output is passed to the function, and an assertionError is raised if the functions do not return true.

The 0th argument in argList is automatically added, only pass "real" command line arguments.

toExec may also be a zero-argument python function. In that case, the process is forked and the function is called, with sys.argv according to argList. This helps to save startup time for python main functions.
