Unit test cases are not getting executed in python

Question

import unittest


class TestCaseDemo(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        print('setUP')

    def any_test(self):
        print('test')

    def tearDown(self):
        print('tearDown')


unittest.main()

Output:

Ran 0 tests in 0.000s

OK

Process finished with exit code 0

I'm probably seeing the same problem @jonrsharpe has pointed out. Are you sure you have indented everything properly? — Jake Tae

Like @JST99 and @jonrsharpe pointed out, your "tests" are not in the TestCaseDemo class. Just adjust your indentation. — Captain Jack Sparrow

JST99 and @jonrsharpe and Noah Broyles idenation is correct , I have also debug the code , its just not entering into the functions — gopal sawant

It would help if you copied your code in so it displayed correctly. — Charles Angus

The issue (aside from indentation) is that your test function doesn't start with test. Using the unittest (docs) module requires that naming.

import unittest

class TestStringMethods(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_upper(self):
        self.assertEqual('foo'.upper(), 'FOO')

    def this_is_not_a_test(self):
       print("doesn't start with 'test'")

From the "Basic Example" documentation:

A testcase is created by subclassing unittest.TestCase. The three individual tests are defined with methods whose names start with the letters test. This naming convention informs the test runner about which methods represent tests.
