Retain test result object in TestProgram.runTests #194

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The object returned by self.testRunner.run() in TestProgram.runTests is
discarded.  It would be helpful to retain it for later use; my specific use
case is that NumPy needs to return it to users for backwards compatibility
with our previous testing framework.  Patch attached.

Hmm, but unittest returns None from .run(), right?  So only in your extension to
unittest is the returned object guaranteed to be a result object.

Does implementing .prepareTestResult() in a plugin and retaining the result 
help?
