Same can be achieved using class attributes.
class TestOdd1(unittest.TestCase):
NUMBER=1
def runTest(self):
"""Assert that the item is odd"""
self.assertTrue( self.NUMBER % 2 == 1, "Number should be odd")
class TestOdd2(TestOdd1):
NUMBER=2
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
The unittesting will discover them automatically, so no need to create a suite.
If you want to avoid using a TestCase for base class, you can use multiple inheritance:
from unittest import TestCase, main
class TestOdd:
def runTest(self):
"""Assert that the item is odd"""
self.assertTrue( self.NUMBER % 2 == 1, "Number should be odd")
class TestOdd1(TestOdd, TestCase):
NUMBER=1
class TestOdd2(TestOdd, TestCase):
NUMBER=2
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
