Dynamic inspection via code snippet - first implementation

[Michał Kwiatkowski]

Hi all,

Today I stared work on the "Dynamic inspection via code snippet" blueprint.

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/pythoscope/+spec/dynamic-inspection-via-code-snippet

This will serve as a (hopefully better) alternative to entry points.

If anyone wants to try it, trunk contains the first implementation. It
worked on some simple examples I checked, but more testing is in
order. I'm gonna try a real app tomorrow.

You use it exactly like you would use coverage.py or figleaf. Put this
at the top of your Python script:

import pythoscope
pythoscope.start()

and the following before it exits:

pythoscope.stop()

Note that you have to do pythoscope --init *first*, only after that
you can run your script. Once you exit your app, calling pythoscope
will generate test cases based on data gathered during the run.

Cheers,
mk
