python - 使用 assertRaises - 处理传播的异常

Question

我有一些代码，我正在测试一个包装异常，当它失败并且异常传播时，我认为错误消息和回溯不够详细，主要是因为它没有告诉我预期与. 测试，我想要异常和期望的详细信息。

我调整了我的测试(参见下面的示例代码)。我想知道这种方法是否有效，是否有任何 Python 测试或模拟框架允许直接实现它？ (目前我正在使用 unittest 和 mox)

this question 的答案之一简要介绍了在这种情况下使用 self.fail 的适当性，但并未详细说明。我的假设是，如果我尝试将测试限制在一个区域，我可以通过测试。

注意:如果您运行该代码示例，它应该会失败，以演示我希望看到的行为。我正在使用 Python 2.7、Mox 0.5.3

import sys
import urllib2
from contextlib import closing

try:
    import lxml.etree as ET
except ImportError:
    import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET


class Defect(Exception):
    """Wrapped exception, for module error detection"""
    def __init__(self, *args):
        Exception.__init__(self, *args)
        self.wrapped_exc = sys.exc_info()


class StudioResources:
    """Dummy class"""
    def _opener(self, request, html=False):
        with closing(urllib2.urlopen(request)) as response:
            try:
                if html:
                    import lxml.html
                    return lxml.html.parse(response)
                else:
                    return ET.parse(response)
            except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
                if e.code in [400, 500]: # Bad Request, Internal Server Error
                    raise Defect, "report error to the library maintainer"
                else:
                    raise

在编写单元测试时，将测试限制在一件事上总是一个好主意。我没有发现您的代码有任何问题，但我会将所有内容包装在上下文管理器中。我使用 nose 而不是 unittest，它将任何 AssertionError 视为失败(这意味着无需调用 self.fail())，并且我编写了自己的上下文管理器来处理此问题案件。如果您有兴趣，这是代码:

class assert_raises:

    def __init__(self, exception):
        self.exception = exception

    def __enter__(self):
        return self

    def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):
        assert exc_type is self.exception, "Got '{}', expected '{}'"\
            .format('None' if exc_type is None else exc_type.__name__,
                    self.exception.__name__)
        return True

然后在这些示例中使用它:

>>> with assert_raised(ValueError):
...    raise ValueError

>>> with assert_raised(ValueError):
...    pass
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
AssertionError: Got 'None', expected 'ValueError'

>>> with assert_raised(ValueError):
...     raise TypeError
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
AssertionError: Got 'TypeError', expected 'ValueError'

由于引发了 AssertionError，nose 将其视为失败并打印完整的回溯。这是为 nose 设计的，但是为 unittest 和 mox 调整它是一件微不足道的事情。如果您不太关心失败的确切模式，您甚至可以按原样使用它。
