IPython/testing/tools.py

"""Generic testing tools that do NOT depend on Twisted.

In particular, this module exposes a set of top-level assert* functions that
can be used in place of nose.tools.assert* in method generators (the ones in
nose can not, at least as of nose 0.10.4).

Note: our testing package contains testing.util, which does depend on Twisted
and provides utilities for tests that manage Deferreds.  All testing support
tools that only depend on nose, IPython or the standard library should go here
instead.

    Only the base part of startPath is kept, since this routine is typically
    used with a script's __file__ variable as startPath.  The base of startPath
    is then prepended to all the listed files, forming the output list.

    Parameters
    ----------
      startPath : string
        Initial path to use as the base for the results.  This path is split
      using os.path.split() and only its first component is kept.

      files : string or list
        One or more files.

    Examples
    --------

    >>> full_path('/foo/bar.py',['a.txt','b.txt'])
    ['/foo/a.txt', '/foo/b.txt']

    >>> full_path('/foo',['a.txt','b.txt'])
