manifest: add some documentation to _lazymanifest python code
It was not particularly easy figuring out the design of this class and keeping
track of how the pieces work. So might as well write some of it down for the
next person.
from __future__ import absolute_import, print_function
import os
import sys
import unittest
def main(modulename):
'''run the tests found in module, printing nothing when all tests pass'''
module = sys.modules[modulename]
suite = unittest.defaultTestLoader.loadTestsFromModule(module)
results = unittest.TestResult()
suite.run(results)
if results.errors or results.failures:
for tc, exc in results.errors:
print('ERROR:', tc)
print()
sys.stdout.write(exc)
for tc, exc in results.failures:
print('FAIL:', tc)
print()
sys.stdout.write(exc)
sys.exit(1)
if os.environ.get('SILENT_BE_NOISY'):
main = unittest.main
