This commit removes the usage of subprocess from the discovery/list test phase in TestProcessor. Previously to get a list of tests from discovery we would subprocess out to a new python interpreter calling the subunit runner with the list command and capture stdout from process and parse that sububit stream to get the test ids. However, this was not strictly necessary as we're not doing anything in parallel, so we should be able to just call the subunit_runner directly inline and use an in memory buffer instead of stdout. This has the advantage of not interfering with sys.stdout, in the previous method if anything besides the subunit_runner was printing to stdout it would cause a parser error because of the non-subunit data mixed into the stream.

This is still failing some tests, it looks like there is an issue when calling from a function with the import paths that we'll need to debug first. |
