twisted.trial.runner.ErrorHolder

class documentation

class ErrorHolder(TestHolder): (source)

Used to insert arbitrary errors into a test suite run. Provides enough methods to look like a TestCase, however, when it is run, it simply adds an error to the TestResult. The most common use-case is for when a module fails to import.

Method	`__init__`
Method	`__repr__`	Undocumented
Method	`run`	Run the test, reporting the error.
Instance Variable	`error`	Undocumented

Inherited from TestHolder:

Method	`__call__`	Run the test. Should always do exactly the same thing as run().
Method	`countTestCases`	Return the number of tests in this test case. Usually 1.
Method	`id`	Return a unique identifier for the test, usually the fully-qualified Python name.
Method	`shortDescription`	Return a short description of the test.
Class Variable	`failureException`	The exception class that is raised by failed assertions
Instance Variable	`description`	Undocumented
