When I call: nose.run(argv=['--with-nosexml'_'--xml-report-file=some_file'])_ I get my NoseXML output in some_file. This is nice. On the other hand_ it would be nicer if I could specify a StringIO that the NoseXML could write to instead of a file in the filesystem. I have managed to do this by poking around inside the nose.core.TestProgram class and nose.core.configure function_ but my solution is not really acceptable for long-term use. I manually insert a StringIO into the configuration information after argv is parsed and before it is passed to the plugins. Please consider providing a different means for specifying configuration information to nose when it is run using nose.run(). I would be glad to help with this if it would be an acceptable change. And if I've missed the proper way to do something like this_ please let me know.

I see the line "nose.core: INFO: Working directory is a package; adding to sys.path" appear_ but the tests won't run_ I get an ImportError: No module named foo The problem is that the message "Working directory is a package; adding to sys.path" is misleading. I doesn't add the current directory_ it adds the _parent_ of the current directory to sys.path. (Due to the way add_path() is implemented in sys.path) I'm not sure how to characterise this problem. Simply having 'import package.foo' instead of 'import foo' in test_foo.py makes it work. Is there any reason to prohibit using 'import foo' in this case? Or maybe using add_path() for adding the current working directory is a bug? ,1166026048,1165855566,guest 4,0.9.2,font-weight: bold,102,Nose frontpage installation instructions in error,nose,assigned,None,0.9.1,minor,low,jpellerin,These instructions are wrong: {{{ Install nose using setuptools: easy_install nose Or_ if you don't have setuptools installed_ use the download link at right to download the source package_ and install in the normal fashion: Ungzip and untar the source package_ cd to the new directory_ and: python setup.py install }}} You cannot run python setup.py install without setup_tools upgraded to at least the version that nose is configured to work with_ as per this error message: {{{ $ sudo python setup.py install ~/src/nose-0.9.1 The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c2) is not available_ and can't be installed while this script is running.

That is_ os.access(myFilePath_ os.X_OK) returns True for all of my .py files. This means that the default behaviour of omitting executable files unless --exe is set causes doctests in non-test modules to not run on Windows. This happens because non-test modules get checked with wantFile() rather than wantModule() and get ignored becuase there are executable. This bug is hidden slightly at the moment because the sense of --exe is currently reversed - see #68. Currently the doctests are omitted when --exe is used. After #68 is fixed they will be omitted when --exe is ''not'' used. ,1151720276,1150107090,richard@artsalliancemedia.com 3,0.9,color: #777; background: #ddd; border-color: #ccc;,21,add unittests for lunatic objects,nose:selector,closed,fixed,0.9,normal,normal,jpellerin,Add unittests for weirdo calls that might come up_ such as calling want_function() with something that doesn't have a {{{__name__}}}.,1151028415,1143081832,jpellerin 3,0.9,color: #777; background: #ddd; border-color: #ccc;,1,coverage output for single tests,nose:plugin:coverage,closed,fixed,0.9,normal,normal,jpellerin,Ran: {{{ python nose/core.py -vvvvv -w st/unit_tests --with-coverage --cover-package=nose test_selector }}} Expected: coverage output Actual: no coverage output,1150943529,1141872205,jpellerin 3,0.9,color: #777; background: #ddd; border-color: #ccc;,68,The meaning of '--exe' is backwards,nose:selector,closed,fixed,0.9,normal,normal,jpellerin,the command line option '--exe' is documented as causing more files to be included.

Currently I am working around unloadable modules by overloading the load_source() method in ihooks.Hooks. There is also a big problem that I'm not sure is solvable in aliased modules (i.e. "from main import foo" when when foo.py exists in main/foo/foo.py_ concealed by main/foo/__init__.py). I think inspect.getfile() is the one to blame for that_ but I haven't looked into it too far other than knowing it's not working how I would like it. * wrapper.getTestAddress() * get a string "address" of a test. That is_ a name that could be put on the command line of a nosetests call to run this test again. I'm thinking that any unittest.!TestCase method could only return the filename of its module?
