A timer plugin for nosetests
Project description
A timer plugin for nosetests that answers the question: how much time does every test take?
Install
To install the latest release from PyPI:
pip install nose-timer
Or to install the latest development version from Git:
pip install git+git://github.com/mahmoudimus/nose-timer.git
Or to install the latest from source:
git clone https://github.com/mahmoudimus/nose-timer.git cd nose-timer python setup.py install
Usage
Run nosetests with the --with-timer flag, and you will see a list of the tests and the time spent by each one (in seconds):
myapp.tests.ABigTestCase.test_the_world_is_running: 56.0010s myapp.tests.ABigTestCase.test_the_rest_of_the_galaxy_is_running: 2356.0010s
How do I show only the n slowest tests?
For example, to show only the 10 slowest tests, run nosetests with the --timer-top-n flag:
nosetests --with-timer --timer-top-n 10
How do I color the output and have pretty colors?
You can highlight slower tests using --timer-ok and --timer-warning flags. Default time unit is the second, but you can specify it explicitly, e.g. 1s, 100ms.
Tests which take less time than --timer-ok will be highlighted in green.
Tests which take less time than --timer-warning will be highlighted in yellow.
All other tests will be highlighted in red.
How do I turn off pretty colors?
In some cases, you may want to disable colors completely. This is done by using the --timer-no-color flag. This is useful when running tests in a headless console.
How do I filter results by colors?
It is possible to filter results by color. To do so, you can use the --timer-filter flag:
nosetests --with-timer --timer-filer ok nosetests --with-timer --timer-filer warning nosetests --with-timer --timer-filer error
Or to apply several filters at once:
nosetests --with-timer --timer-filer warning,error
