unittest 11 test batch execution file (file match selection TestLoader discover more test cases by mode)

Earlier we said, for different file cases, we can use case load by addTest () to a test suite (TestSuite) to uniform implementation, for a small number of documents to do so no problem, but if there are tens of hundreds of use cases files, to do so would a waste of time.

The discover unittest () method can be bulk loaded with the Example

discover(start_dir, pattern='test*.py', top_level_dir=None)

• start_dir: test name or test module directory
• pattern = 'test * .py': represented by way of example matching file names, matching here is the type of test .py beginning of the file, which matches any character *
• top_level_dir: test module top-level directory

Code:

import unittest

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Test directory
    test_dir = r"D:\Git\Test_Framework\test_case"
    # Load test
    discover = unittest.defaultTestLoader.discover (test_dir, 'test * .py') # return value is a test suite
    runner = unittest.TextTestRunner(verbosity=2)
    runner.run(discover)
