You might like to start at 'doc/overview.rst' or +'doc/for-test-authors.rst'. + + +Licensing +--------- + +This project is distributed under the MIT license and copyright is owned by +Jonathan M. Lange and the testtools authors. See LICENSE for details. + +Some code in 'testtools/run.py' is taken from Python's unittest module, and is +copyright Steve Purcell and the Python Software Foundation, it is distributed +under the same license as Python, see LICENSE for details. + + +Required Dependencies +--------------------- + + * Python 2.4+ or 3.0+ + + +Optional Dependencies +--------------------- + +If you would like to use our undocumented, unsupported Twisted support, then +you will need Twisted. + +If you want to use ``fixtures`` then you can either install fixtures (e.g. from +https://launchpad.net/python-fixtures or http://pypi.python.org/pypi/fixtures) +or alternatively just make sure your fixture objects obey the same protocol. + + +Bug reports and patches +----------------------- + +Please report bugs using Launchpad at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/testtools>. +Patches can also be submitted via Launchpad, or mailed to the author. You can +mail the author directly at jml@mumak.net. + +There's no mailing list for this project yet, however the testing-in-python +mailing list may be a useful resource: + + * Address: testing-in-python@lists.idyll.org + * Subscription link: http://lists.idyll.org/listinfo/testing-in-python + + +History +------- + +testtools used to be called 'pyunit3k'.
