How to combine HTMLTestRunner with nosetests?

[danschef]

• HtmlTestRunner version: 1.1.1
• Python version: 3.6
• Operating System: Ubuntu Linux

Description

I tried out your example on the main page including the

    if __name__ == '__main__':
        unittest.main(testRunner=HtmlTestRunner.HTMLTestRunner(output='example_dir'))

and ran it as suggested with 'python test.py' which works fine and generates a nice HTML report.

However, i was wondering if there is any possibility to combine HTMLTestRunner with nosetests.

I tried the following:

>>> nosetests tests/test_HTMLTestRunner.py -vv
nose.config: INFO: Ignoring files matching ['^\\.', '^_', '^setup\\.py$']
This test should be marked as error one. ... ERROR
This test should fail. ... FAIL
test_isupper (tests.test_HTMLTestRunner.TestStringMethods) ... ok
This test should be skipped. ... SKIP: This is a skipped test.
test_split (tests.test_HTMLTestRunner.TestStringMethods) ... ok
test_upper (tests.test_HTMLTestRunner.TestStringMethods) ... ok

======================================================================
ERROR: This test should be marked as error one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/testproject/tests/test_HTMLTestRunner.py", line 24, in test_error
    raise ValueError
ValueError

======================================================================

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/testproject/tests/test_HTMLTestRunner.py", line 28, in test_fail
    self.assertEqual(1, 2)
AssertionError: 1 != 2

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 6 tests in 0.003s

FAILED (SKIP=1, errors=1, failures=1)

So the tests are working as expected but no HTML outputs are generated. Do you have a suggestion how to get this to work?
