gaeunit

GAEUnit 2.0 alpha for Django is released, please download and follow the instruction.GAEUnit is a unit test framework that helps to automate testing of your Google App Engine application. With a single configuration change (it can be completed within 30 seconds), your unit tests can be run in the real GAE app server environment using a web browser.

GAEUnit is simple. It contains only one file: gaeunit.py. Just copy that file into your application directory and add the test URL to app.yaml.

Usage

1. Configure the environment:

Copy gaeunit.py to the project directory. Add the following 2 lines to app.yaml:

- url: /test.*
script: gaeunit.py2. Write your test case scripts in Python modules, each containing unittest.TestCase subclasses, in the 'test' directory and launch dev_appserver.py

3. Browse to the following URL (change the port if necessary):

http://localhost:8080/testYour test results will be displayed in the browser:

If you wish to run a single module, execute it like this:

http://localhost:8080/test?name=my_test_moduleYou can also specify a single test class, like name=my_test_module.MyTestCase or even a single test method, like name=my_test_module.MyTestCase.test_stuff
