Main features

• Support to libraries which use unittest as bese such as Django.

Installing it

pip install unittest-prettify 

Using it

Changing the color for a whole test case:

The test_1() and test_2() will inherit the green color from the class definition.

import unittest
from unittest_prettify.colorize import (
    colorize,
    GREEN,
)

@colorize(color=GREEN)
class Foo(unittest.TestCase):
    def test_1(self):
        """This test comment should be with the Class color set as GREEN"""

    def test_2(self):
        """This test comment should be with the Class color set as GREEN"""

Changing the color for a specific test:

The test_1() will inherit the green color from the class definition, but test_2() will overwrite the color by red.

import unittest
from unittest_prettify.colorize import (
    colorize,
    GREEN,
    RED,
)

@colorize(color=GREEN)
class Foo(unittest.TestCase):
    def test_1(self):
        """This test comment should be with the Class color set as GREEN"""
        
    @colorize(color=RED)
    def test_2(self):
        """This test comment should be RED"""
