How do I measure the execution time of python unit tests with nosetests? (2 answers)

Closed 8 years ago.

We've got a test suite of about 2000 tests distributed over 50-60 files, that we run with nosetests. What is the best way to figure out which tests are running slowly? I could add a start/stop timer to the setUp method of every test, but this would be cumbersome to add to every file.

The nosetests prof documentation provides details on how to profile your application. Easiest way is:

nosetests --with-profile
