Nimoy

A testing and specification framework for Python 3, heavily inspired by the amazing Spock Framework.

Why Nimoy?

The Spock Framework has set a new standard as to what testing frameworks should be like - beautiful, expressive, pragmatic and fun.

While unittest, pytest and nose2 are great, there's still room for improvement.

The aim of this project is to port Spock to Python while maintaining the original vision as much as possible.

Based on unittest, so minimal dependencies are required and specifications are recognized by IDEs and report analyzers
Reduction of boilerplate code
Write detailed specifications with clear distinction
Auto discovery of specifications
Write data-driven specifications
Pretty mock behavior assertion
See fancy detailed assertion failure reports
