Tests for failure.Failure.

Method test_failAndTrap Trapping a Failure.
Method test_trapRaisesWrappedException If the wrapped Exception is not a subclass of one of the expected types, failure.Failure.trap raises the wrapped Exception.
Method test_trapRaisesSelf If the wrapped Exception is not a subclass of one of the expected types, failure.Failure.trap raises itself.
Method test_failureValueFromFailure A failure.Failure constructed from another failure.Failure instance, has its value property set to the value of that failure.Failure instance.
Method test_failureValueFromFoundFailure No summary
Method assertStartsWith Assert that s starts with a particular prefix.
Method assertEndsWith Assert that s end with a particular suffix.
Method assertTracebackFormat Assert that the tb traceback contains a particular prefix and suffix.
Method assertDetailedTraceback Assert that printDetailedTraceback produces and prints a detailed traceback.
Method assertBriefTraceback Assert that printBriefTraceback produces and prints a brief traceback.
Method assertDefaultTraceback Assert that printTraceback produces and prints a default traceback.
Method test_printDetailedTraceback printDetailedTraceback returns a detailed traceback including the Failure's count.
Method test_printBriefTraceback printBriefTraceback returns a brief traceback.
Method test_printTraceback printTraceback returns a traceback.
Method test_printDetailedTracebackCapturedVars printDetailedTraceback captures the locals and globals for its stack frames and adds them to the traceback, when called on a Failure constructed with captureVars=True.
Method test_printBriefTracebackCapturedVars printBriefTraceback returns a brief traceback when called on a Failure constructed with captureVars=True.
Method test_printTracebackCapturedVars printTraceback returns a traceback when called on a Failure constructed with captureVars=True.
Method test_printDetailedTracebackCapturedVarsCleaned printDetailedTraceback includes information about local variables on the stack after cleanFailure has been called.
Method test_invalidFormatFramesDetail failure.format_frames raises a ValueError if the supplied detail level is unknown.
Method test_ExplictPass Undocumented
Method test_RaiseExceptionWithTB Undocumented
Method test_stringExceptionConstruction Constructing a Failure with a string as its exception value raises a TypeError, as this is no longer supported as of Python 2.6.
Method test_ConstructionFails Creating a Failure with no arguments causes it to try to discover the current interpreter exception state. If no such state exists, creating the Failure should raise a synchronous exception.
Method test_getTracebackObject If the Failure has not been cleaned, then getTracebackObject returns the traceback object that captured in its constructor.
Method test_getTracebackObjectFromCaptureVars captureVars=True has no effect on the result of getTracebackObject.
Method test_getTracebackObjectFromClean If the Failure has been cleaned, then getTracebackObject returns an object that looks the same to traceback.extract_tb.
Method test_getTracebackObjectFromCaptureVarsAndClean If the Failure was created with captureVars, then getTracebackObject returns an object that looks the same to traceback.extract_tb.
Method test_getTracebackObjectWithoutTraceback failure.Failures need not be constructed with traceback objects. If a Failure has no traceback information at all, getTracebackObject just returns None.
Method test_tracebackFromExceptionInPython3 If a failure.Failure is constructed with an exception but no traceback in Python 3, the traceback will be extracted from the exception's __traceback__ attribute.
Method test_cleanFailureRemovesTracebackInPython3 failure.Failure.cleanFailure sets the __traceback__ attribute of the exception to None in Python 3.
Method test_repr The repr of a failure.Failure shows the type and string representation of the underlying exception.
Method _getInnermostFrameLine Undocumented

Inherited from SynchronousTestCase:

Instance Variable failureException An exception class, defaulting to FailTest. If the test method raises this exception, it will be reported as a failure, rather than an exception. All of the assertion methods raise this if the assertion fails.
Instance Variable skip None or a string explaining why this test is to be skipped. If defined, the test will not be run. Instead, it will be reported to the result object as 'skipped' (if the TestResult supports skipping).
Instance Variable todo None, a string or a tuple of (errors, reason) where errors is either an exception class or an iterable of exception classes, and reason is a string. See Todo or makeTodo for more information.
Instance Variable suppress None or a list of tuples of (args, kwargs) to be passed to warnings.filterwarnings. Use these to suppress warnings raised in a test. Useful for testing deprecated code. See also util.suppress.
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method __eq__ No summary
Method __ne__ Undocumented
Method __hash__ Undocumented
Method shortDescription Undocumented
Method getSkip No summary
Method getTodo No summary
Method runTest If no methodName argument is passed to the constructor, run will treat this method as the thing with the actual test inside.
Method run Run the test case, storing the results in result.
Method addCleanup Add the given function to a list of functions to be called after the test has run, but before tearDown.
Method patch Monkey patch an object for the duration of the test.
Method flushLoggedErrors Remove stored errors received from the log.
Method flushWarnings Remove stored warnings from the list of captured warnings and return them.
Method callDeprecated Call a function that should have been deprecated at a specific version and in favor of a specific alternative, and assert that it was thusly deprecated.
Method mktemp Create a new path name which can be used for a new file or directory.
Method _getSuppress No summary
Method _getSkipReason Return the reason to use for skipping a test method.
Method _run Run a single method, either a test method or fixture.
Method _runFixturesAndTest Run setUp, a test method, test cleanups, and tearDown.
Method _runCleanups Synchronously run any cleanups which have been added.
Method _installObserver Undocumented
Method _removeObserver Undocumented

Inherited from _Assertions (via SynchronousTestCase):

Method fail Absolutely fail the test. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.
Method assertFalse Fail the test if condition evaluates to True.
Method assertTrue Fail the test if condition evaluates to False.
Method assertRaises Fail the test unless calling the function f with the given args and kwargs raises exception. The failure will report the traceback and call stack of the unexpected exception.
Method assertEqual Fail the test if first and second are not equal.
Method assertIs Fail the test if first is not second. This is an obect-identity-equality test, not an object equality (i.e. __eq__) test.
Method assertIsNot Fail the test if first is second. This is an obect-identity-equality test, not an object equality (i.e. __eq__) test.
Method assertNotEqual Fail the test if first == second.
Method assertIn Fail the test if containee is not found in container.
Method assertNotIn Fail the test if containee is found in container.
Method assertNotAlmostEqual Fail if the two objects are equal as determined by their difference rounded to the given number of decimal places (default 7) and comparing to zero.
Method assertAlmostEqual Fail if the two objects are unequal as determined by their difference rounded to the given number of decimal places (default 7) and comparing to zero.
Method assertApproximates Fail if first - second > tolerance
Method assertSubstring Fail if substring does not exist within astring.
Method assertNotSubstring Fail if astring contains substring.
Method assertWarns Fail if the given function doesn't generate the specified warning when called. It calls the function, checks the warning, and forwards the result of the function if everything is fine.
Method assertIsInstance Fail if instance is not an instance of the given class or of one of the given classes.
Method assertNotIsInstance Fail if instance is an instance of the given class or of one of the given classes.
Method successResultOf Return the current success result of deferred or raise self.failureException.
Method failureResultOf Return the current failure result of deferred or raise self.failureException.
Method assertNoResult Assert that deferred does not have a result at this point.
Method assertRegex Fail the test if a regexp search of text fails.
