Bug#781847: RFS: python-tappy/1.3-1 [ITP] -- Test Anything Protocol (TAP) tools for Python
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal
Dear Debian Mentors,
I have packaged tap.py:
* Package name : tap.py
Version : 1.3-1
Upstream Author : Matt LAYMAN
* URL : https://github.com/mblayman/tappy
* License : BSD-2
Section : python
tap.py is a python package that provides:
- a test runner that produces a TAP compliant output;
- facilities to load and parse the output produced by TAP
compliant test runners.
- Provides a lexer to colorize TAP output with Pygments.
There are a few other python packages that do similar
stuff, but none yet in Debian. Compared to other packages that I could find:
- It is very easy to integrate in your tests, and plays
well with the standard unittest framework;
- It is actively maintained;
- It is compatible with python from 2.6 to 3.4
(covers all python versions found in Debian);
I have packaged it because I use it myself and having it
packaged eases its deployment on the development and CI
systems I maintain.
I now hope that it will be useful to someone else...
Packages are available for review on debian mentors and here:
