unit testing - Giving parameters into TestCase from Suite in python

Question

From python documentation(http://docs.python.org/library/unittest.html):

import unittest

class WidgetTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.widget = Widget('The widget')

    def tearDown(self):
        self.widget.dispose()
        self.widget = None

    def test_default_size(self):
        self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (50,50),
                         'incorrect default size')

    def test_resize(self):
        self.widget.resize(100,150)
        self.assertEqual(self.widget.size(), (100,150),
                         'wrong size after resize')

Here is, how invoke those testcase:

def suite():
    suite = unittest.TestSuite()
    suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_default_size'))
    suite.addTest(WidgetTestCase('test_resize'))
    return suite

Is it possible to insert parameter custom_parameter into WidgetTestCase like:

class WidgetTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self,custom_parameter):
        self.widget = Widget('The widget')
        self.custom_parameter=custom_parameter

?

Answer 1

What I've done is in test_suite module just added

WidgetTestCase.CustomParameter="some_address"

The simplest solutions are the best :)
