Plugin Options¶
This plugin is enabled once installed and provides the following options for making nose behave a bit better:
-
--test-suite-func
<test_suite>
¶ This option makes nose respect modules that contain unit tests but define a function that returns the suite containing those tests rather than expecting the test runner to collect them directly.
The name of this function is expected to be
test_suite
by default, if you require a different name to be used, please invoke nose as follows:$ nosetests --test-suite-func=your_func_name
-
--show-docstrings
¶
By default, this plugin prevents docstrings in tests from being used as test names in the test run output. You can turn this behaviour off by passing the
--show-docstrings
option on the command-line.
