I’ve never used unittest, but from my experience pytest has all the qualities you could wish for. Lukas Fleischer [2020-03-22 17:35:23 -0400]
How hard would it be to make pytest-tap compatible with the usual TAP test invocation?
I didn’t realize it at first, but since pytest-tap outputs TAP already, a very simple shell wrapper invoking pytest with the right arguments should be enough to integrate it with the existing test structure. One friction point with pytest-tap is that it’s not in the official Arch repositories, unlike all the other libraries aurweb depends on. Most Python developers should be familiar with pip and virtualenv though, but that’s inconsistent with the instructions in TESTING that suggest using pacman to install Python dependencies.
