Test & Code

• using @unittest.expectedFailure
• the results of passing and failing tests with expectedFailure
• using pytest as a test runner for unittest
• using pytest markers on unittest tests

import unittest

class ExpectedFailureTestCase(unittest.TestCase):

    @unittest.expectedFailure
    def test_fail(self):
        self.assertEqual(1, 0, "broken")

    @unittest.expectedFailure
    def test_pass(self):
        self.assertEqual(1, 1, "not broken")

import unittest
import pytest


class ExpectedFailureTestCase(unittest.TestCase):

    @pytest.mark.xfail
    def test_fail(self):
        self.assertEqual(1, 0, "broken")

    @pytest.mark.xfail
    def test_pass(self):
        self.assertEqual(1, 1, "not broken")
