unit testing - How to create an instance of an inherited class in unittest Python so that I can register the instance of that class in simpleXMLRPCServer -

from __future__ import with_statement sikuli.sikuli import *  import os import unittest import import xmlrpclib import simplexmlrpcserver, socketserver, threading  class simplethreadedxmlrpcserver(socketserver.threadingmixin, simplexmlrpcserver.simplexmlrpcserver):     pass  class abc(object):     def a(self):       ...........     def b(self):       ...........     def c(self):       ...........        class xyz(unittest.testcase,abc):     def setup(self):          print "inside setup"          pass           def teardown(self):          print "inside teardown"           pass     def test_1(self):         self.a()         self.b()         self.c()       def d(self):             print "inside d"         return true       suite = unittest.testloader().loadtestsfromtestcase(xyz)  class serverthread(threading.thread):     def __init__(self):         threading.thread.__init__(self)         self.server = simplethreadedxmlrpcserver(("x.x.x.1", 8000))         #self.server.register_instance() #how register instance of xyz here.     def run(self):         self.server.serve_forever()  server = serverthread() server.start() 

so question how register instance of xyz here. in commented line above can called xmlrpc client like:

client = xmlrpclib.serverproxy("http://x.x.x.2:8000") handraise = client.d() #or other possible way 

i know works register_function(d) want whole class xyz exposed using register_instance().

theoretically should work:

self.server.register_instance(xyz())    # throwed runtest error me 

anyways, passing method name explicitly arg in classname inside register_instance like:

self.server.register_instance(xyz("d")) 

worked expected me.
, xmlrpc client, call d() like:

handraise = client.d()
