Unexpected Success not handled gracefully

[silkehorn]

The following script fails:

import unittest
import xmlrunner


class ExampleTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    @unittest.expectedFailure
    def test_unexpected_success(self):
        self.assertTrue(True) 

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Run tests with xmlrunner and output the results as XML
    with open('test-reports/results.xml', 'wb') as output:
        unittest.main(testRunner=xmlrunner.XMLTestRunner(output=output))

This is the output:

Running tests...

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'shortDescription'

It seems that unittest expects a scalar test, but gets a tuple (test, "unexpected success").

This would be fixed by #274...
