"""IPython-enhanced doctest module with unittest integration.

This module is heavily based on the standard library's doctest module, but
enhances it with IPython support.  This enables docstrings to contain
unmodified IPython input and output pasted from real IPython sessions.

It should be possible to use this module as a drop-in replacement for doctest
whenever you wish to use IPython input.

Since the module absorbs all normal doctest functionality, you can use a mix of
both plain Python and IPython examples in any given module, though not in the
same docstring.

See a simple example at the bottom of this code which serves as self-test and
demonstration code.  Simply run this file (use -v for details) to run the
tests.

This module also contains routines to ease the integration of doctests with
regular unittest-based testing.  In particular, see the DocTestLoader class and
the makeTestSuite utility function.


Limitations:

 - When generating examples for use as doctests, make sure that you have
   pretty-printing OFF.  This can be done either by starting ipython with the
   flag '--nopprint', by setting pprint to 0 in your ipythonrc file, or by
   interactively disabling it with %Pprint.  This is required so that IPython
   output matches that of normal Python, which is used by doctest for internal
   execution.

 - Do not rely on specific prompt numbers for results (such as using
   '_34==True', for example).  For IPython tests run via an external process
   the prompt numbers may be different, and IPython tests run as normal python
   code won't even have these special _NN variables set at all.

 - IPython functions that produce output as a side-effect of calling a system
   process (e.g. 'ls') can be doc-tested, but they must be handled in an
   external IPython process.  Such doctests must be tagged with:

        # ipdoctest: EXTERNAL

   so that the testing machinery handles them differently.  Since these are run
   via pexpect in an external process, they can't deal with exceptions or other
   fancy featurs of regular doctests.  You must limit such tests to simple
   matching of the output.  For this reason, I recommend you limit these kinds
   of doctests to features that truly require a separate process, and use the
   normal IPython ones (which have all the features of normal doctests) for
   everything else.  See the examples at the bottom of this file for a
   comparison of what can be done with both types.

    Note: IPython-modified version which loads test finder and runners that
    recognize IPython syntax in doctests.

    Test examples in docstrings in functions and classes reachable
    from module m (or the current module if m is not supplied), starting
    with m.__doc__.

    Also test examples reachable from dict m.__test__ if it exists and is
    not None.  m.__test__ maps names to functions, classes and strings;
    function and class docstrings are tested even if the name is private;
    strings are tested directly, as if they were docstrings.

    Return (#failures, #tests).

    See doctest.__doc__ for an overview.

    Optional keyword arg "name" gives the name of the module; by default
    use m.__name__.

    Optional keyword arg "globs" gives a dict to be used as the globals
    when executing examples; by default, use m.__dict__.  A copy of this
    dict is actually used for each docstring, so that each docstring's
    examples start with a clean slate.

    Optional keyword arg "extraglobs" gives a dictionary that should be
    merged into the globals that are used to execute examples.  By
    default, no extra globals are used.  This is new in 2.4.

    Optional keyword arg "verbose" prints lots of stuff if true, prints
    only failures if false; by default, it's true iff "-v" is in sys.argv.

    Optional keyword arg "report" prints a summary at the end when true,
    else prints nothing at the end.  In verbose mode, the summary is
    detailed, else very brief (in fact, empty if all tests passed).

    Optional keyword arg "optionflags" or's together module constants,
    and defaults to 0.  This is new in 2.3.  Possible values (see the
    docs for details):

        DONT_ACCEPT_TRUE_FOR_1
        DONT_ACCEPT_BLANKLINE
        NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
        ELLIPSIS
        SKIP
        IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL
        REPORT_UDIFF
        REPORT_CDIFF
        REPORT_NDIFF
        REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE

    Optional keyword arg "raise_on_error" raises an exception on the
    first unexpected exception or failure. This allows failures to be
    post-mortem debugged.

    Advanced tomfoolery:  testmod runs methods of a local instance of
    class doctest.Tester, then merges the results into (or creates)
    global Tester instance doctest.master.  Methods of doctest.master
    can be called directly too, if you want to do something unusual.
    Passing report=0 to testmod is especially useful then, to delay
    displaying a summary.  Invoke doctest.master.summarize(verbose)
    when you're done fiddling.
