Python nose throws TypeError error with coverage

When I am using the nosetests 1.2.1 with coverage, it throws the below error.

/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/tw/core/view.py:223: DeprecationWarning: object.__new__() takes no parameters
obj = object.__new__(cls, *args, **kw)
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any help? Thanks

Solution

  • You have the last version of nose but an old version of coverage, and nose uses features recently added in coverage.

    Branch coverage support was added in coverage 3.2, and you have the version 3.0.1 (see https://crate.io/packages/coverage/).

    You need to update coverage.
