in A Peer to Peer test distribution system (TestBot)? on jessenoller.com comments
Jesse -

You mention Skoll. And I'm sure you've already seen Adam Porter and Atif Memon talk from GTAC last year. Very interesting concepts.

jnoller Yup. I wanted to go to GTAC last year (and this year too) but didn't have the chance. Skoll is interesting for a variety of reasons, and there are some parallels to what I am talking about in the distributed-slave-sense. I'm gleaning what seems to be the more meaty parts of Skoll from the papers and publications.

in Python doctests seem underappreciated on t+1
Matt -

Couldn't you just use nose's doctest plugin?

<my snip>
% nosetests --with-doctest has.py -v -s
Doctest: has.has_no ... ok

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 test in 0.007s

OK
</my snip>

I love doctests. I also love the nose doctest plugin.

Matt Wilson Hi Terry, Yeah, I do use the doctests plugin for nose. So when I run my doctests, I do $ nosetests --with-doctest blah.py

Well, actually, with-doctest=1 is in my $HOME/.noserc, so I don't need the --with-doctest option.

in Does anyone know what this error is? (Segfault) on jessenoller.com comments
Jesse, I'm not sure which I loathe more from my son. The winter set of colds, flus and viruses. Or the summer set of rashes, flus and viruses - of the gastrointestinal variation.

I think summer.

in What are your favorite nose plugins? How do you run Nose? on jessenoller.com comments
Man, where do I start? Since my team uses it mainly for testing web interfaces - here's some things:

Test generators are pretty key us. The same feature is in py.test - we use that feature of nose constantly on our team here @ work.

The plugin architecture has also allowed us to be more flexible in what we can pass to our functional tests. We build custom plugins to allow more flexible test collection and execution.

The underlying system of test collection is what has always attracted me. nose, in general, allows me to very quickly put together a suite of tests without have to deal with UnitTest boilerplate.

Congrats.

And as a sort of new dad (14 month old), some advice: while you have a chance - babyproof, babyproof, babyproof and more babyproof.
