## orbitals - write simple unittests which can be run against any supernova environment in a threaded manner
orbitals does the following:
* uses rackerhacker's supernova to allow running tests against any supernova configured environment
* testcases have access to an object specific python-novaclient instance through self.client
* allows green threading at both the testcase and suite level using gevent, allowing multiple suites to be run concurrently and/or suites with multiple concurrent tests
### Installation
git clone git://github.com/tr3buchet/orbitals.git
cd orbitals
python setup.py install
### Configuration
Please refer to http://github.com/rackerhack/supernova for instructions setting up supernova
No other setup is required
### Usage
orbitals [--help] [--debug] [--list] environment testcase
positional arguments:
env environment to run tests against, from ~/.supernova
testcase orbitals testcase to run
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-l, --list list configured environments
-d, --debug show debug output (overrides NOVACLIENT_DEBUG)
to use an included testcase:
orbitals environment orbitals.testcases.testcase_file.TestCaseClass
write your own testcases:
orbitals environment testcase_file.TestCaseClass
#### A brief note about environment variables
Orbitals does not use previously set environment variables.
Please see the supernova readme for more information.
