Flask Framework Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

We can execute all the tests in our application using nose by running the following command:

    $ nosetests -v
    Test creation of new category ... ok
    Test creation of new product ... ok
    Test home page ... ok
    Test Products list page ... ok
    Test searching product ... ok
    ----------------------------------------------------------------    ----
    Ran 5 tests in 0.399s
    
    OK  

This will pick out all the tests in our application and run them even if we have multiple test files.

To run a single test file, simply run the following command:

    $ nosetests app_tests.py 

Now, if you want to run a single test, simply run this command:

    $ nosetests app_tests:CatalogTestCase.test_home 

This becomes important when we have a memory-intensive application ...
