Code Coverage and Unit Testing of Python Code

I have already visited Preferred Python unit-testing framework. I am not just looking at Python Unit Testing Framework, but also code coverage with respect to unit tests. So far I have only come across coverage.py. Is there any better option?

An interesting option for me is to integrate cpython, unit testing of Python code and code coverage of Python code with Visual Studio 2008 through plugins (something similar to IronPython Studio). What can be done to achieve this? I look forward to suggestions.

Solution

  • PyDev seems to allow code coverage from within Eclipse.

    I've yet to find how to integrate that with my own (rather complex) build process, so I use Ned Batchelder's coverage.py at the command line.
