How to run test suite for plone.app.iterate

Hi all

I am attempting to replace a bug in plone.app.iterate in a unit test so I can more accurate report the issue with a test alongside it.

I've tried various things to get the unit test suite running in nose but I'm faced with various errors along the way.

Just running 'python setup.py' test claims to be running tests but even adding a failure into a test doesn't do anything.

git clone GitHub - plone/plone.app.iterate: Checkin/ checkout procedure for content editing (working copy) for Plone
cd plone.app.iterate/
virtualenv ~/pythons/p.a.iterate
~/pythons/p.a.iterate/bin/python setup.py test
~/pythons/p.a.iterate/bin/pip install nose

~/plone.app.iterate$ ~/pythons/p.a.iterate/bin/nosetests
E

ERROR: Failure: ImportError (No module named zope.i18nmessageid)

ImportError: No module named zope.i18nmessageid

Anyone have any ideas for me on this?

Thanks

I answered on Slack but let's keep it here too: afaik nose isn't supported. You have to run tests from your own buildout home (e.g. buildout.coredev) with ./bin/test -m plone.app.iterate.
