TAP and Python

[Gabor Szabo]

It was sitting in my inbox for too long but finally I flipped through
the long thread
that was on the testing in Python list in April.

It's worth looking at the thread with the subject

   [TIP] Result protocol (was: Nosejobs!)

in the archive:

http://lists.idyll.org/pipermail/testing-in-python/2009-April/thread.html


In the discussion about test result protocols they even mentioned TAP
and not always totally in a negative way. It certainly can be interesting
to see what problems are they trying to deal with and why they might
think TAP is not good for them.


A related talk on Pycon was also mentioned (see video:
http://us.pycon.org/2009/conference/schedule/event/30/ )

There is 'subunit' that if I understood correctly is a test result
protocol parser:
http://launchpad.net/subunit


And Padnokia which is a test management and reporting system:
