| Tests in example form - IPython |
| ================================= |
|
|
| You can write text files with examples that use IPython prompts (as long as you |
| use the nose ipython doctest plugin), but you can not mix and match prompt |
| styles in a single file. That is, you either use all ``>>>`` prompts or all |
| IPython-style prompts. Your test suite *can* have both types, you just need to |
| put each type of example in a separate. Using IPython prompts, you can paste |
| directly from your session:: |
|
|
| In [5]: s="Hello World" |
|
|
| In [6]: s.upper() |
| Out[6]: 'HELLO WORLD' |
|
|
| Another example:: |
|
|
| In [8]: 1+3 |
| Out[8]: 4 |
|
|
| Just like in IPython docstrings, you can use all IPython syntax and features:: |
|
|
| In [9]: !echo hello |
| hello |
|
|
| In [10]: a='hi' |
|
|
| In [11]: !echo $a |
| hi |
|
|
