Unit test script returns exit code = 0 even if tests fail

Question

My testing script looks as follows:

import os
import sys
from unittest import defaultTestLoader as loader, TextTestRunner

path_to_my_project = os.path.dirnam         


        

Answer 1

The code is not using unittest.main. You need to check the result using TestResult.wasSuccessful and call sys.exit manually.

import sys

....

ret = not runner.run(suite).wasSuccessful()
sys.exit(ret)
