PDB and tests

[Tim Lahey]

Hi,

Is there an easy way to run a test and trace the execution in PDB?
There's a test that fails intermittently and I'd like to run it with a
specific seed (which I know causes it to fail), but I want to run it
inside of PDB. Is there an option for bin/tests for it or do I just have
to load PDB and then run the test?

Thanks,

Tim.

I typically use `ipython --pdb` then import and run the specific test
in the interpreter.

I do something similar, but I prefer pudb (pip install pudb):

$ PYTHONPATH=../../.. python -c "from test_finite_diff import test_apply_finite_diff as test; import pudb; pudb.set_trace(); test()"

There is a --pdb flag to the SymPy test runner. It would be nice to
have it support pudb too.

My understanding is that pudb uses the same mechanisms as pdb, so I'd
expect anything special for pdb to work for pudb as well.
Am I mistaken?

PuDB subclasses pdb, so it keeps the same interface, so it's just a
question of replacing pdb.set_trace or pdb.post_mortem with
pudb.set_trace and pudb.post_mortem.
