However, some people expect fixtures/setup_function/method functions to execute<br>
before the generator does and this mixes the collection with the runtest phase.<br>
Unfortunately, nose also supports this notion although i am wondering how<br>
nose2 is going to deal with it as Jason also plans to separate collection<br>
from running.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>nose2 does separate collection from running and breaks backwards compatibility with nose's generator tests. This can be pretty surprising in some cases, if you're using generator tests in a test class and you expect to be able to use instance attributes set in setUp in the generator function -- you can't. That's currently filed as a bug against nose2, but I'm coming around to thinking that it's just the way the design has to work. So I guess that would be my opinion -- there's no need to preserve compatibility with nose.</div>
