Name        : python-unittest2
Product     : Fedora 13
Version     : 0.5.1
Release     : 1.fc13
URL         : http://pypi.python.org/pypi/unittest2
Summary     : Backport of new unittest features for Python 2.7 to Python 2.4+
Description :
unittest2 is a backport of the new features added to the unittest
testing framework in Python 2.7. It is tested to run on Python 2.4 -
2.6.

To use unittest2 instead of unittest simply replace ``import unittest``
with ``import unittest2``.

Classes in unittest2 derive from the equivalent classes in unittest,
so it should be possible to use the unittest2 test running infra-
structure without having to switch all your tests to using unittest2
immediately. Similarly
you can use the new assert methods on ``unittest2.TestCase`` with the
standard unittest test running infrastructure. Not all of the new
features in unittest2 will work with the standard unittest test loaders
and runners however.
