cloudbridge/test/__init__.py

"""
Tests the functionality of each provider implementation against registered
test cases. These tests require that provider credentials are set as
environment variables, as required for each provider (see `tox.ini` for a list
of env variables).

Since the tests exercise the ``cloudbridge`` interfaces, and there are multiple
implementations of these interfaces, for m interfaces and n implementation,
exercising all interfaces means that m*n test case classes are needed.
Otherwise, the standard test runners such as unittest and nose2 do not
correctly pick up the tests.

To avoid an explosion of repetitive test cases, the
``ProviderTestCaseGenerator`` class will automatically generate a new Python
class for each combination of test and provider. The ``load_tests`` protocol
(https://docs.python.org/2/library/unittest.html#load-tests-protocol)
is used to aid test discovery.

Use ``python setup.py test`` to run these unit tests (alternatively, use
``python -m unittest test``).

All test cases need to be registered below, and available providers will be
discovered through the ``ProviderFactory``. Test Cases must not inherit from
``unittest.TestCase``, to avoid confusing unittest and nose2's automatic
discovery. (The test generator will automatically add ``unittest.TestCase``
as a base class to each combination).
