Unit tests exceptions in IPython are displayed in its kernel tab

Hello,

When running unit tests in the ipython console, exceptions are displayed in spyder internal console. This is the case on all linux and windows and with all versions of spyders. (2.1 , 2.2rc, last hg version so far)

You can reproduce the problem with the following steps:

1. Use the following script:
   import unittest

class tests(unittest.TestCase):

def test_raise(self):
    print 1 / 0

if name == 'main':
unittest.main()

1. Run the script in an ipython console of spyder's ipython widget
2. Errors are displayed in spyder's internal console rather than in the current ipython console. If one runs the same script in a standard python console, the exception is correctly displayed in the current console.

Cheers,

Sylvain

I've just tested this on Windows 8 and results are the following:

1. running the sample script in a dedicated Python interpreter works as expected
2. running the sample script in the current Python interpreter works as expected too
3. running the sample script in the current IPython client will show the unittest results within the IPython kernel command window (in "Console" plugin) which is not the expected behavior (but these are not shown in the internal console as your reported)

Correct, I checked in windows XP and you are right.
I will give a try at home on Ubuntu tonight just in case because it is the system I used when I reported the bug.
Anyway, it is still not the expected behavior. Thanks,

I think I know how to fix this one: a config option needs to be passed to the kernel so that stderr is displayed directly in the console.

Hi Carlos, Do you have a reference on how to pass such an option to a kernel?
