Issues with using xmlrunner, AttributeError: 'XMLTestProgram' object has no attribute 'warnings'

[srisuman]

We are using the following command to run some tests.

python -m xmlrunner discover -p "testBVT_*"

This results in the following error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/runpy.py", line 174, in _run_module_as_main
"main", fname, loader, pkg_name)

AttributeError: 'XMLTestProgram' object has no attribute 'warnings'

Could you please look into the issue.

Please note that this has been working on our setup till 15th March (last time we ran the test suite). Yesterday (20th March) started getting the error.

The same here with latest version (2.4.0) under python2.7 on Windows. Needed to revert to 2.3.2

>pip uninstall unittest-xml-reporting
>pip install unittest-xml-reporting==2.3.2

[arunrag]

Thank you for the suggestion. We were on Fedora Linux when we encountered the issue. Reverting to 2.3.2 helped to unblock us.

Thanks @dnozay. Tried with v2.5.0 which includes the fix you mentioned and error has moved to another place:

@dnozay I tried the master as well and ran into the same issue.
