devel/py-pycotap 1.3.1nb1 NetBSD

pycotap is a simple Python test runner for unittest that outputs Test Anything Protocol results directly to standard output.

Contrary to other TAP runners for Python, pycotap:

\* prints TAP (and only TAP) to standard output instead of to
a separate file, allowing you to pipe it directly to TAP pretty
printers and processors (such as the ones listed on the tape
page). By piping it to other consumers, you can avoid the need
to add specific test runners to your test code. Since the TAP
results are printed as they come in, the consumers can directly
display results while the tests are run.
\* only contains a TAP reporter, so no parsers, no frameworks,
no dependencies.
\* is configurable: you can choose how you want the test output
and test result diagnostics to end up in your TAP output (as
TAP diagnostics, YAML blocks, or attachments). The defaults
are optimized for a Jenkins based flow.
