ANNOUNCING pinocchio v0.1.
pinocchio is a collection of plugins for the 'nose' unit testing framework;
more about that here:
http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/
Basic documentation for pinocchio is available at
http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/pinocchio/doc/
pinocchio currently contains five plugins:
* decorator -- allows you to assign tags to tests from a list file;
* figleafsections -- shows you which tests are executing what code;
* stopwatch -- lets you pick tests to run based on the last execution time;
* outputsave -- saves test stdout into individual files, tagged with
success/failure.
* spec -- generates "specification" output from test class/method names.
This is the first package release of pinocchio.
Note that pinocchio *requires* setuptools to be installed, because that
is how nose plugins work!
You can install pinocchio with easy_install, or download this release at
http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/pinocchio-0.1.tar.gz
Documentation is included in the .tar.gz, and you can read the latest
docs online at
http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/pinocchio/doc/
pinocchio is available under the MIT license. It is Copyright (C)
2006, 2007 C. Titus Brown, except for the spec plugin which is
