Project description

Why?

Why do I write this plugin for nose ,The reason is so sample that the nose original report is so ugly, what’s the worse, not friendly for tester, actually python tester.

How?

How to use this nose plugin: colorunit, Only tree steps you need to follow:

Install colorunit:

1.1) Install with pip

pip install nose-colorxunit

1.2)Uninstall with pip

pip uninstall nose-colorxunit

2.1) Install with source

First, active your own python virtual environment if you have.

Then on the terminal type:

python setup.py build

python setup.py install

If you just want to install it as a super user or using sudo command, please think it again.

2.2) Uninstall with source

Just go to your own python virtual environment site-packages directory, and find nose_colorxunit-..-py..egg, then delete it.

Register colorunit [Optional]

Now this is optional, just write the following code snippet into Any one of your test files if you like, for example, test_demo.py.:
