twisted.test.test_plugin.PluginTests(unittest.TestCase) class documentationtwisted.test.test_plugin
(View In Hierarchy)
Tests which verify the behavior of the current, active Twisted plugins directory.
| Method | setUp | Save sys.pathandsys.modules, and create a 
package for tests. | 
| Method | tearDown | Restore sys.pathandsys.modulesto their 
original values. | 
| Method | test_cache | No summary | 
| Method | test_cacheRepr | CachedPluginhas a helpfulreprwhich contains relevant information about 
it. | 
| Method | test_plugins | No summary | 
| Method | test_detectNewFiles | Check that plugin.getPluginsis
able to detect plugins added at runtime. | 
| Method | test_detectFilesChanged | Check that if the content of a plugin change, plugin.getPluginsis
able to detect the new plugins added. | 
| Method | test_detectFilesRemoved | Check that when a dropin file is removed, plugin.getPluginsdoesn't return it anymore. | 
| Method | test_nonexistentPathEntry | Test that getCache skips over any entries in a plugin package's __path__which do not exist. | 
| Method | test_nonDirectoryChildEntry | Test that getCache skips over any entries in a plugin package's __path__which refer to children of paths which are not 
directories. | 
| Method | test_deployedMode | The dropin.cachefile may not be writable: the cache should
still be attainable, but an error should be logged to show that the cache 
couldn't be updated. | 
| Method | _unimportPythonModule | Undocumented | 
| Method | _clearCache | Remove the plugins droping.cache file. | 
| Method | _withCacheness | No summary | 
Inherited from TestCase:
| Instance Variable | timeout | A real number of seconds. If set, the test will raise an error if it takes 
longer than timeoutseconds. If not set, 
util.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_DURATION is used. | 
| Method | __init__ | Construct an asynchronous test case for methodName. | 
| Method | assertFailure | Fail if deferreddoes not errback with one ofexpectedFailures. Returns the original Deferred with callbacks
added. You will need to return this Deferred from your test case. | 
| Method | __call__ | Run the test. Should always do exactly the same thing as run(). | 
| Method | deferSetUp | Undocumented | 
| Method | deferTestMethod | Undocumented | 
| Method | deferTearDown | Undocumented | 
| Method | deferRunCleanups | Run any scheduled cleanups and report errors (if any to the result object. | 
| Method | addCleanup | Extend the base cleanup feature with support for cleanup functions which return Deferreds. | 
| Method | getSuppress | Undocumented | 
| Method | getTimeout | No summary | 
| Method | _run | Run a single method, either a test method or fixture. | 
| Method | _ebDeferSetUp | Undocumented | 
| Method | _cbDeferTestMethod | Undocumented | 
| Method | _ebDeferTestMethod | Undocumented | 
| Method | _ebDeferTearDown | Undocumented | 
| Method | _cbDeferRunCleanups | Undocumented | 
| Method | _cleanUp | Undocumented | 
| Method | _classCleanUp | Undocumented | 
| Method | _makeReactorMethod | Create a method which wraps the reactor method name. The 
new method issues a deprecation warning and calls the original. | 
| Method | _deprecateReactor | Deprecate iterate,crashandstoponreactor. That is, each method is wrapped in a function that
issues a deprecation warning, then calls the original. | 
| Method | _undeprecateReactor | Restore the deprecated reactor methods. Undoes what _deprecateReactordid. | 
| Method | _runCleanups | Run the cleanups added with addCleanupin order. | 
| Method | _runFixturesAndTest | Really run setUp, the test method, andtearDown.  Any of these may returndefer.Deferreds.
After they complete, do some reactor cleanup. | 
| Method | _wait | Take a Deferred that only ever callbacks. Block until it happens. | 
Inherited from SynchronousTestCase (via TestCase):
| 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 | Noneor 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 theTestResultsupports skipping). | 
| Instance Variable | todo | None,
a string or a tuple of(errors, reason)whereerrorsis either an exception class or an iterable of 
exception classes, andreasonis a string. SeeTodoormakeTodofor 
more information. | 
| Instance Variable | suppress | Noneor a list of tuples of(args, kwargs)to be passed towarnings.filterwarnings. Use these to suppress warnings raised
in a test. Useful for testing deprecated code. See alsoutil.suppress. | 
| 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 methodNameargument is passed to the constructor,runwill treat this method as the thing with the actual test inside. | 
| Method | run | Run the test case, storing the results in result. | 
| 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 | _installObserver | Undocumented | 
| Method | _removeObserver | Undocumented | 
Inherited from _Assertions (via TestCase, SynchronousTestCase):
| Method | fail | Absolutely fail the test. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. | 
| Method | assertFalse | Fail the test if conditionevaluates to True. | 
| Method | assertTrue | Fail the test if conditionevaluates to False. | 
| Method | assertRaises | Fail the test unless calling the function fwith the givenargsandkwargsraisesexception. 
The failure will report the traceback and call stack of the unexpected 
exception. | 
| Method | assertEqual | Fail the test if firstandsecondare not 
equal. | 
| Method | assertIs | Fail the test if firstis notsecond.  This is
an obect-identity-equality test, not an object equality (i.e.__eq__) test. | 
| Method | assertIsNot | Fail the test if firstissecond.  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 containeeis not found incontainer. | 
| Method | assertNotIn | Fail the test if containeeis found incontainer. | 
| 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 substringdoes not exist withinastring. | 
| Method | assertNotSubstring | Fail if astringcontainssubstring. | 
| 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 instanceis not an instance of the given class or 
of one of the given classes. | 
| Method | assertNotIsInstance | Fail if instanceis an instance of the given class or of 
one of the given classes. | 
| Method | successResultOf | Return the current success result of deferredor raiseself.failureException. | 
| Method | failureResultOf | Return the current failure result of deferredor raiseself.failureException. | 
| Method | assertNoResult | Assert that deferreddoes not have a result at this 
point. | 
| Method | assertRegex | Fail the test if a regexpsearch oftextfails. | 
This is a paranoid test wrapper, that calls meth 2 times, 
clear the cache, and calls it 2 other times. It's supposed to ensure that 
the plugin system behaves correctly no matter what the state of the cache 
is.
Check that the cache returned by plugin.getCache hold 
the plugin testplugin, and that this plugin has the properties we 
expect: provide TestPlugin,
has the good name and description, and can be loaded successfully.
CachedPlugin
has a helpful repr which contains relevant information about 
it.
plugin.getPlugins 
should return the list of plugins matching the specified interface (here, 
ITestPlugin2),
and these plugins should be instances of classes with a test 
method, to be sure plugin.getPlugins 
load classes correctly.
Check that plugin.getPlugins is
able to detect plugins added at runtime.
Check that if the content of a plugin change, plugin.getPlugins is
able to detect the new plugins added.
Check that when a dropin file is removed, plugin.getPlugins 
doesn't return it anymore.
Test that getCache skips over any entries in a plugin package's 
__path__ which do not exist.
