trial [options] [[file|package|module|TestCase|testmethod]...]
Options:
-B, --debug-stacktraces Report Deferred creation and callback stack traces
-N, --no-recurse Don't recurse into packages
-b, --debug Run tests in a debugger. If that debugger is pdb, will load '.pdbrc' from
current directory if it exists.
--coverage Generate coverage information in the coverage file in the directory
specified by the temp-directory option.
--debugger= the fully qualified name of a debugger to use if --debug is passed
[default: pdb]
--disablegc Disable the garbage collector
-e, --rterrors realtime errors, print out tracebacks as soon as they occur
--force-gc Have Trial run gc.collect() before and after each test case.
-h, --help Display this help and exit.
--help-orders Help on available test running orders
--help-reactors Display a list of possibly available reactor names.
--help-reporters Help on available output plugins (reporters)
-j, --jobs= Number of local workers to run, a strictly positive integer or 'auto' to
spawn one worker for each available CPU.
-l, --logfile= log file name [default: test.log]
-n, --dry-run do everything but run the tests
--nopm don't automatically jump into debugger for postmorteming of exceptions
-o, --order= Specify what order to run test cases and methods. See --help-orders for
more info.
--profile Run tests under the Python profiler
-r, --reactor= Which reactor to use (see --help-reactors for a list of possibilities)
--recursionlimit= see sys.setrecursionlimit()
--reporter= The reporter to use for this test run. See --help-reporters for more
info. [default: verbose]
--spew Print an insanely verbose log of everything that happens. Useful when
debugging freezes or locks in complex code.
--tbformat= Specify the format to display tracebacks with. Valid formats are 'plain',
'emacs', and 'cgitb' which uses the nicely verbose stdlib cgitb.text
function
--temp-directory= Path to use as working directory for tests. [default: _trial_temp]
--testmodule= Filename to grep for test cases (-*- test-case-name).
-u, --until-failure Repeat test until it fails
--unclean-warnings Turn dirty reactor errors into warnings
--version Display Twisted version and exit.
--without-module= Fake the lack of the specified modules, separated with commas.
-x, --exitfirst Exit after the first non-successful result (cannot be specified along
with --jobs).
-z, --random= Run tests in random order using the specified seed
trial loads and executes a suite of unit tests, obtained from modules, packages and files listed on
the command line.
