5.3.2 Re-using old test code

Some users will find that they have existing test code that they would like to run from PyUnit, without converting every old test function to a `TestCase` subclass.

For this reason, PyUnit provides a `FunctionTestCase` class. This subclass of `TestCase` can be used to wrap an existing test function. Set-up and tear-down functions can also optionally be wrapped.

Given the following test function:

      def testSomething():
          something = makeSomething()
          assert something.name is not None
          # ...

one can create an equivalent test case instance as follows:

      testcase = unittest.FunctionTestCase(testSomething)

If there are additional set-up and tear-down methods that should be called as part of the test case's operation, they can also be provided:

      testcase = unittest.FunctionTestCase(testSomething,
                                           setUp=makeSomethingDB,
                                           tearDown=deleteSomethingDB)

Note: PyUnit supports the use of `AssertionError` as an indicator of test failure, but does not recommend it. Future versions may treat `AssertionError` differently.
