# Exercise 8.1: Writing Unit Tests
> Source: Practical Python Programming, `08_Testing_debugging/01_Testing.md`.
### Exercise 8.1: Writing Unit Tests
In a separate file `test_stock.py`, write a set a unit tests
for the `Stock` class. To get you started, here is a small
fragment of code that tests instance creation:
```python
# test_stock.py
import unittest
import stock
class TestStock(unittest.TestCase):
def test_create(self):
s = stock.Stock('GOOG', 100, 490.1)
self.assertEqual(s.name, 'GOOG')
self.assertEqual(s.shares, 100)
self.assertEqual(s.price, 490.1)
if __name__ == '__main__':
unittest.main()
```
Run your unit tests. You should get some output that looks like this:
```
.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 1 tests in 0.000s
OK
```
Once you're satisfied that it works, write additional unit tests that
check for the following:
- Make sure the `s.cost` property returns the correct value (49010.0)
- Make sure the `s.sell()` method works correctly. It should
decrement the value of `s.shares` accordingly.
- Make sure that the `s.shares` attribute can't be set to a non-integer value.
For the last part, you're going to need to check that an exception is raised.
An easy way to do that is with code like this:
```python
class TestStock(unittest.TestCase):
...
def test_bad_shares(self):
s = stock.Stock('GOOG', 100, 490.1)
with self.assertRaises(TypeError):
s.shares = '100'
```
