Nose test script with command line arguments

Question

I would like to be able to run a nose test script which accepts command line arguments. For example, something along the lines:

test.py

import nose, sys
         


        

Answer 1

For now I am using the following hack:

args = sys.argv[1:]
sys.argv = sys.argv[0:1]

which just reads the argument into a local variable, and then deletes all the additional arguments in sys.argv so that nose does not get confused by them.
