Detailed Description

A class to control unit tests.

This class is unchanged from previous versions of sconsUtils, but it will now generally be called via scripts.BasicSConscript.tests().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

def lsst.sconsUtils.tests.Control.__init__	(		self,
			env,
			ignoreList = None,
			expectedFailures = None,
			args = None,
			tmpDir = ".tests",
			verbose = False
	)

Create an object to run tests.

Parameters

env	An SCons Environment (almost always lsst.sconsUtils.env).
ignoreList	A list of tests that should NOT be run — useful in conjunction with glob patterns. If a file is listed as "@fileName", the @ is stripped and we don't bother to check if fileName exists (useful for machine-generated files).
expectedFalures	A dictionary; the keys are tests that are known to fail; the values are strings to print.
args	A dictionary with testnames as keys, and argument strings as values. As scons always runs from the top-level directory, tests has to fiddle with paths. If an argument is a file this is done automatically; if it's e.g. just a basename then you have to tell tests that it's really (part of a) filename by prefixing the name by "file:".
tmpDir	The location of the test outputs.
verbose	How chatty you want the test code to be.
