f7u12 output plugin for the nose testing framework

Project description

Nose F7U12
==========

Implements PEP-712 style output for the Nose testing framework so that the
output more accurately represents the developer's feelings when blocks of tests
fail. After 7 failures, omit a "U" instead of an "F".

See http://www.revsys.com/blog/2011/oct/20/pep712-proposal-make-unittest2-more-accurate/

Why? Because I laughed when I first saw PEP-712, and I'd never written a Nose
plugin before.

Thanks to:

* Michael Foord (for tweeting the link in the first place)
* Kumar McMillan (for having a good example to cheat off of/learn from)
