While python internal libraries have support for unit tests, its output is not nice. Add a helper module to improve its output. I wrote this module last year while testing some scripts I used internally. The initial skeleton was generated with the help of LLM tools, but it was higly modified to ensure that it will work as I would expect.

Python unittest
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
Checking consistency of python modules can be complex. Sometimes, it is
|
|
useful to define a set of unit tests to help checking them.
|
|
|
|
While the actual test implementation is usecase dependent, Python already
|
|
provides a standard way to add unit tests by using ``import unittest``.
|
|
|
|
Using such class, requires setting up a test suite. Also, the default format
|
|
is a little bit ackward. To improve it and provide a more uniform way to
|
|
report errors, some unittest classes and functions are defined.
