nose-timer

A timer plugin for nosetests that answers the question: how much time does every test take?

image

Install

pip install nose-timer

Usage

Run nosetests with the --with-timer flag, and you will see a list of the tests and the time spent by each one (in seconds):

myapp.tests.ABigTestCase.test_the_world_is_running: 56.0010s
myapp.tests.ABigTestCase.test_the_rest_of_the_galaxy_is_running: 2356.0010s

How do I show only the n slowest tests?

For example, to show only the 10 slowest tests, run nosetests with the --timer-top-n flag.

nosetests --with-timer --timer-top-n 10

How do I color the output and have pretty colors?

You can highlight slower tests using --timer-ok and --timer-warning flags. Default time unit is the second, but you can specify it explicitly, e.g. 1s, 100ms.

  • Tests which take less time than --timer-ok will be highlighted in green.
  • Tests which take less time than --timer-warning will be highlighted in yellow.
  • All other tests will be highlighted in red.

How do I turn off pretty colors?

In some cases, you may want to disable colors completely. This is done by using the --timer-no-color flag. This is useful when running tests in a headless console.
