Open Stack

Hi,

Olso Incubator runs tests using testr on Python 2, but it uses nosetests on Python 3 to only run a subset of the test suite (modules and tests ported to Python 3). In my latest patch for Oslo Incubator (gettext), Ben Nemec wrote:
"I think we could get around the nose issue by using a testr regex to filter the tests we run for py33 (like I did in py27 for running everything but rpc in parallel), but that's outside the scope of this change so +2."

I tried to run Olso Incubator tests with testr on Python 3, but testr fails to load "openstack.common.eventlet_backdoor", because eventlet module is not installed (eventlet is not Python 3 compatible yet). If I understood correctly, testr first loads all modules and then filter the tests to run using the regex passed on the command line. If I'm correct, I don't see right now how to run Olso Incubator tests with testr on Python 3. But I don't know well the Testr tool, so I missed probably an option.

I would like to use testr because many Olso Incubator tests use testscenarios (which doesn't work with nosetests).

By the way, would it be possible to fix nosetests to use testscenarios?
