Executing single unittest over a sequence

[volcano63]

Hi folks,
I have the unittest that may run over some sequence, failing occasionally on some elements.

So, instead of writing

1 2 3 4 5

class MyTectClass(unittest.TestCase):    .....    def TestOverSequence(self):        for elem in sequence:             <run a bunch of asserts>

I would like to have something like

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

class MyTectClass(unittest.TestCase):    def __init__(self):        super().__init__()        self.sequence_iter = iter(sequence)      def TestOverElem(self):        elem = next(self.sequence_iter)        <run a bunch of asserts>

Is it doable, and if it is - how?

Thanks in advance

You know what they say about RT(F)M .

After getting a couple of good-intentioned - but misleading - answers on SO, I stumbled upon this useful API - unitteste.subTest()

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

class MyTectClass(unittest.TestCase):     def _some_test(**kwargs):        .......       def TestOverSequence(self):         for elem in sequence:             with self.subTest(elem=elem)                 self._some_test(elem=elem)

Problem solved!
