rednose

rednose is a nosetests <http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/> plugin for adding colour (and readability) to nosetest console results.

Installation:

easy_install rednose

or from the source:

./setup.py develop

Usage:

nosetests --rednose

or:

export NOSE_REDNOSE=1 # you can put this in your .profile, .bashrc or similar
nosetests

Nose by default uses auto-colouring, which will only use colour if you're running it on a terminal (i.e not piping it to a file). To control colouring, use one of:

nosetests --rednose-color=off
nosetests --rednose-color=on
nosetests --rednose-color=auto

(you can also set this in the environment variable NOSE_REDNOSE_COLOR)
