make unit tests less dependent on formatted output #175

Open jairideout opened 11 years ago

jairideout commented 11 years ago

Many of the unit tests are very touchy because they depend on formatted output, e.g. generated code. This will make maintaining them a pain because any time the formatting of a command's output changes, the unit tests will have to be updated. See @gregcaporaso's comment here for more details. We need to come up with a better way to handle this sort of testing.
