This will run all tests defined in the named module.
-.. function:: catch_warning(module=warnings, record=True)
+.. function:: check_warnings()
- Return a context manager that guards the warnings filter from being
- permanently changed and optionally alters the :func:`showwarning`
- function to record the details of any warnings that are issued in the
- managed context. Attributes of the most recent warning are saved
- directly on the context manager, while details of previous warnings
- can be retrieved from the ``warnings`` list.
+ A convenience wrapper for ``warnings.catch_warnings()`` that makes
+ it easier to test that a warning was correctly raised with a single
+ assertion. It is approximately equivalent to calling
+ ``warnings.catch_warnings(record=True)``.
+
+ The main difference is that on entry to the context manager, a
+ :class:`WarningRecorder` instance is returned instead of a simple list.
+ The underlying warnings list is available via the recorder object's
+ :attr:`warnings` attribute, while the attributes of the last raised
+ warning are also accessible directly on the object. If no warning has
+ been raised, then the latter attributes will all be :const:`None`.
+
+ A :meth:`reset` method is also provided on the recorder object. This
+ method simply clears the warning list.
The context manager is used like this::
- with catch_warning() as w:
+ with check_warnings() as w:
warnings.simplefilter("always")
warnings.warn("foo")
assert str(w.message) == "foo"
assert str(w.message) == "bar"
assert str(w.warnings[0].message) == "foo"
assert str(w.warnings[1].message) == "bar"
+ w.reset()
+ assert len(w.warnings) == 0
- By default, the real :mod:`warnings` module is affected - the ability
- to select a different module is provided for the benefit of the
- :mod:`warnings` module's own unit tests.
- The ``record`` argument specifies whether or not the :func:`showwarning`
- function is replaced. Note that recording the warnings in this fashion
- also prevents them from being written to sys.stderr. If set to ``False``,
- the standard handling of warning messages is left in place (however, the
- original handling is still restored at the end of the block).
.. function:: captured_stdout()
Temporarily unset the environment variable ``envvar``.
+.. class:: WarningsRecorder()
+
+ Class used to record warnings for unit tests. See documentation of
+ :func:`check_warnings` above for more details.

Temporarily Suppressing Warnings
--------------------------------
-If you are using code that you know will raise a warning, such some deprecated
-function, but do not want to see the warning, then suppress the warning using

when the context was entered. This prevents tests from changing the warnings

+
+When testing multiple operations that raise the same kind of warning, it
+is important to test them in a manner that confirms each operation is raising
+a new warning (e.g. set warnings to be raised as exceptions and check the
+operations raise exceptions, check that the length of the warning list
+continues to increase after each operation, or else delete the previous
+entries from the warnings list before each new operation).
