"""
Provides helper functions and classes execute python unit tests.

Those help functions provide a nice colored output summary of each
executed test and, when a test fails, it shows the different in diff
format when running in verbose mode, like::

    $ tools/unittests/nested_match.py -v
    ...
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/new_devel/docs/tools/unittests/nested_match.py", line 69, in test_count_limit
        self.assertEqual(replaced, "bar(a); bar(b); foo(c)")
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    AssertionError: 'bar(a) foo(b); foo(c)' != 'bar(a); bar(b); foo(c)'
    - bar(a) foo(b); foo(c)
    ?       ^^^^
    + bar(a); bar(b); foo(c)
    ?       ^^^^^
    ...

It also allows filtering what tests will be executed via ``-k`` parameter.

Typical usage is to do::

    from unittest_helper import run_unittest
    ...

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        run_unittest(__file__)

If passing arguments is needed, on a more complex scenario, it can be
used like on this example::

    from unittest_helper import TestUnits, run_unittest
    ...
    env = {'sudo': ""}
    ...
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        runner = TestUnits()
        base_parser = runner.parse_args()
        base_parser.add_argument('--sudo', action='store_true',
                                help='Enable tests requiring sudo privileges')

        args = base_parser.parse_args()

        # Update module-level flag
        if args.sudo:
            env['sudo'] = "1"

        # Run tests with customized arguments
        runner.run(__file__, parser=base_parser, args=args, env=env)
