PEP8 naming convention on test classes

Question

I have been looking at PEP 8 -- Style Guide for Python Code and PEP8 -- Advanced Usage for clues on how to name my test classes. However, this is never mentioned on both sit

Answer 1

The documentation for unittest suggests, e.g.:

class TestSequenceFunctions(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_shuffle(self):
        ...

    def test_choice(self):
        ...

The three individual tests are defined with methods whose names start with the letters test. This naming convention informs the test runner about which methods represent tests.
