unbound method run() must be called with TextTestRunner

[xgnata]

Hi all,

python-nose is fully broken in ubuntu karmic alpha 2 and I'm not able
to understand why.
For instance, when I tun the testsuite from numpy, I get that:

/usr/local/src/numpy# nosetests
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/nosetests", line 8, in <module>
load_entry_point('nose==0.10.4', 'console_scripts', 'nosetests')()
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/nose/core.py", line 219, in
__init__
argv=argv, testRunner=testRunner, testLoader=testLoader)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/unittest.py", line 819, in __init__
self.runTests()
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/nose/core.py", line 298, in
runTests
result = self.testRunner.run(self.test)
TypeError: unbound method run() must be called with TextTestRunner
instance as first argument (got ContextSuite instance instead)

I have no real clue why so far :(

I'll have to check, but it may be a bug with python 2.6 or unittest.

Well if I diff unittest from python2.5 and unittest from python2.6 I see
that:

sys.exit(not result.wasSuccessful())

main = TestProgram

which could explain the problem...

Sorry I didn't see this thread until now. I can't explain this; nose
0.10.4 works fine with python 2.6. nose overrides
TestProgram.runTests, so the changes to unittest quoted below don't
matter. It does appear from the error that something is causing a
TestRunner class to be passed in instead of a TestRunner instance, but
nothing in nose proper is doing that. I suggest taking this up with
the maintainer of the ubuntu package.

Sorry I can't be more help.

Ok. Here it is : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nose/+bug/389942
I have no clue what the problem could be.
A bug in Python 2.6.2+ from ubuntu is quite unlikely.
*no clue*

Actually, a bug related to ubuntu/debian's new python policy is not
completely unlikely. They have patched python to install to dist-
packages instead of site-packages, manually installed packages
(outside of the package manager) go into /usr/local/[...]/dist-
packages. This change lead to problems with ubuntu's own packaging of
pyqwt, for example. I took a wild guess that it had something to do
with pkg_rsources on ubuntu, but that is nothing more than a wild
guess.

Ok. Is there anything I could check to try solve that?
I have trace all the functions calls down to the error but I have no
working python-nose to compare with. As a result, I was not able to
understand where the problem is :(

Hi,
have you tried to change in nose/core.py around line 194 (in
TestProgram.runTests):

result = self.testRunner.run(self.test)
change into
result = self.testRunner().run(self.test)

Regards,
Antonio

Hi,

It does work with python2.6.3 but its fails with 2.5 (in fact, with
python <2.6.3):

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/nosetests", line 8, in <module>
load_entry_point('nose==0.10.4', 'console_scripts', 'nosetests')()

File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/nose/core.py", line 219, in __init__
argv=argv, testRunner=testRunner, testLoader=testLoader)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/unittest.py", line 768, in __init__
self.runTests()
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/nose/core.py", line 298, in runTests
result = self.testRunner().run(self.test)
TypeError: 'TextTestRunner' object is not callable

The semantics of 'TextTestRunner' has been modified in python-2.6.3
It is ugly but python-nose would have to test if python version is >=2.6.3
