Python's unittest and dynamic creation of test cases [duplicate]

Answer 1

For this you should use test generators in nose. All you need to do is yield a tuple, with the first being a function and the rest being the args. From the docs here is the example.

def test_evens():
    for i in range(0, 5):
        yield check_even, i, i*3

def check_even(n, nn):
    assert n % 2 == 0 or nn % 2 == 0
