assertRaises code example
Example 1: python unittest setUpClass
class MyUnitTest(unittest.TestCase):
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
do_something_expensive_for_all_sets_of_tests()
class MyFirstSetOfTests(MyUnitTest):
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
super(MyFirstSetOfTests, cls).setUpClass()
do_something_expensive_for_just_these_first_tests()
Example 2: assert
In simple words, if the assert condition is true then the
program control will execute the next test step but if the condition is
false, the execution will stop and further test step will not be executed.
Example 3: self.assertequal python
'''
In other words, assertEquals is a function to check if two variables are equal, for purposes of automated testing:
'''
def assertEquals(var1, var2):
if var1 == var2:
return True
else:
return False
