#341 python2.7 setup.py test failed:

[Frédéric PICCA]

Hello,

when preparing the taurus 4.0.1 debian package
I get this error if I activate the tests during the build

I: pybuild base:184: python2.7 setup.py test

I understand that the test should fail for now,but I think thaht this is not the right way to fail ;)

Hi Fred,

as usually, you are spot-on ... we do not yet support python setup.py test.

For now, if you want to run tests, run taurustestsuite (but note that you may need to provide a suitable environment, such as that in https://hub.docker.com/r/cpascual/taurus-test/ if you want all tests to succeed.

Note that taurustestsuite allows you use patterns to exclude tests. This may be interesting for the debian build (since you could exclude those tests that require special setup)

Cheers,

[Carlos Falcon]

I created a PR that fix the bug.
