I have a function to test, under_test
, and a set of expected input/output pairs:
[
(2, 332),
(234, 99213),
(9, 3),
# ...
]
I would like each one of these input/output pairs to be tested in its own test_*
method. Is that possible?
This is sort of what I want, but forcing every single input/output pair into a single test:
class TestPreReqs(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.expected_pairs = [(23, 55), (4, 32)]
def test_expected(self):
for exp in self.expected_pairs:
self.assertEqual(under_test(exp[0]), exp[1])
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
