    Pausing for Python Interpreter error messages...

    I've written a few classes that I have been testing in IDLE. However,
    every time I make a change to the classes based on the testing I have
    to walk through all he steps of preparing the classes for testing
    again.

    So I wrote a script that does all the set-up work for me. The only
    problem is when I run this script using the Python interpreter I can't
    get the command prompt to stay up long enough for me to read the
    message.

    How do I get the command prompt to stay up? Is there a way to run my
    script and view the error message in IDLE?

    Thanks for the help.

    P.S. - I'm using Windows XP with the latest Python 2.3.

      You may want to have a look at the unittest module then:
      unittest — Unit testing framework
      http://docs.python.org/lib/module-unittest.html
      Source code: Lib/unittest/__init__.py(If you are already familiar with the basic concepts of testing, you might want to skip to the list of assert methods.) The unittest unit testing framework was ...

      message.

      first open the "command prompt", then launch your script from the
      command prompt.

      script and view the error message in IDLE?
      menu run->run module, or just hit the F5 key.
      Thanks for the help.

      Python 2.3 is years old. Latest is 2.5.

          Thanks Bruno.

          I'll get the 2.5 python install, and I'm checking out the unit testing
          module that you mentioned.
