testtools
=========

testtools is a set of extensions to the Python standard library's unit testing
framework.

These extensions have been derived from years of experience with unit testing
in Python and come from many different sources.

 * Python 2.4+ or 3.0+


Optional Dependencies
---------------------

If you would like to use our undocumented, unsupported Twisted support, then
you will need Twisted.

If you want to use ``fixtures`` then you can either install fixtures (e.g. from
https://launchpad.net/python-fixtures or http://pypi.python.org/pypi/fixtures)
or alternatively just make sure your fixture objects obey the same protocol.


Bug reports and patches
-----------------------

Please report bugs using Launchpad at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/testtools>.
Patches can also be submitted via Launchpad, or mailed to the author.  You can
mail the author directly at jml@mumak.net.

There's no mailing list for this project yet, however the testing-in-python
mailing list may be a useful resource:

 * Address: testing-in-python@lists.idyll.org
 * Subscription link: http://lists.idyll.org/listinfo/testing-in-python


History
-------

testtools used to be called 'pyunit3k'.  The name was changed to avoid
conflating the library with the Python 3.0 release (commonly referred to as
'py3k').
