Question

In Zed Shaw’s “Learn Python the Hard Way” tutorial 46, students are asked to create
a tests/NAME_tests.py file. But I got / is not a valid character error in Aptana Studios
and Notepad++. What am I doing wrong?

Here’s the code that Zed asks to put into that file.

from nose.tools import *
import NAME

def setup():
    print "SETUP!"

def teardown():
    print "TEAR DOWN!"

def test_basic():
    print "I RAN!

Answer 1

By

tests/NAME_tests.py

It’s to create a file named NAME_tests.py under a folder named tests.

UPDATE

An excerpt from Learn Python The Hard Way confirming the final structure:

setup.py
NAME/
    __init__.py
bin/
docs/
tests/
    NAME_tests.py
    __init__.py
