What steps will reproduce the problem?

instead:  PyScripter closes down immediately

PyScripter 1.9.9.2 on WindowsXP SP2

I will fix this, but it is common to write this code as

import unittest
if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()

unittest.main() raises a sys.exit() which is not trapped.

Fixed in version control.  Module imports now trap SystemExit exceptions 
avoiding
PyScripter closing down in the scenario you described.

Thanks! That was fast.

So klicking the 'Refresh tests' will still execute the tests, if I omit "if 
__name__
== '__main__':", right? No big deal.

Playing around with unittests, I naively just thought, I could skip the if 
clause,
because nobody would ever import my dumb test module.

Thanks again

Tip:  Have you tried the Unit Test Wizard (under Tools)
