Method Details

setUp(self)

source code

Set up the WebTest by starting the server.

You should override this and make sure you have properly mounted a root for your server before calling super, or simply pass a root controller to super. Otherwise the CherryPy filters for TurboGears will not be used.

Overrides: unittest.TestCase.setUp

tearDown(self)

source code

Tear down the WebTest by stopping the server.

Overrides: unittest.TestCase.tearDown
