Web2py has a dynamic environment which trips nosetests up. Right now I think only doctests is being used in anger with web2py codebases.

In my test (testinit.py) I "from project.gluon.globals import *" causing nosetests to report "No Module named gluon.utils". Have you used nosetests with eclipse/web2py and can help? And if you're using an alternative unit testing system could you share your experiences? I’m trying to get nosetests working with web2py & eclipse.

Started all over again from scratch and now it's working. That's Eclipse for you... bweugh. That’s exactly what I tried, but it didn’t work.

Do make sure you’re not merely running your program, but actually debugging it by right clicking on web2py.py, Debug As, Python run. For some reason you can’t set break points using CTRL-Shift-B in Pydev. Instead you have to double click in the margin of the line of code you want to set the breakpoint in. You also might have to tinker with your working directory. My Pydev project simply starts at the root of the web2py directory. Also make sure that you’ve added that root directory to your PYTHONPATH as a source folder in your project properties. @rev

Or did I miss something? @desfrenes
