Using the e3 pytest plugin
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
``e3-core`` contains a ``pytest`` plugin that is discovered automatically when
|
|
installed. The plugin provides several features: it generates a results file
|
|
compatible with anod when the environment variable ``RESULTS_DIR`` is defined.
|
|
It provides a simple setup for running coverage (on top of the pytest-cov
|
|
plugin). And it provides a env_protect fixture that is automatically activated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Activating e3-core pytest plugins
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To activate the e3-core pytest plugin, you need to install e3-core and pass
|
|
the option ``--e3`` to pytest.
|
|
|
|
env_protect
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
When activated, the plugin will register the ``env_protect`` feature to ensure
|
|
that all tests are run in isolation. All changes to the environment done in
|
|
each test won't impact other tests. Also, each test is run in a separate temp
|
|
directory, you won't have to cleanup the files that the tests create.
|
|
|
|
``env_protect`` also sets some environment variables such as:
|
|
|
|
* ``TZ=UTC`` to ensure a consistent timezone handling
|
|
* ``E3_ENABLE_FEATURE=""`` to discard any specific features supported by e3
|
|
* ``E3_CONFIG=/dev/null`` to avoid having a specific e3 config read by the tests
|
|
|
|
And the e3 DEBUG log level is activated for each tests.
|
|
|
|
Coverage
|
|
^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
When running pytest with ``--e3`` and ``--cov`` options, pytest will
|
|
automatically generate an exclude list for lines matching the following
|
|
patterns:
|
|
|
|
* ``all: no cover``
|
|
* ``if TYPE_CHECKING:``
|
|
* ``@abstractmethod``
|
|
* ``# os-specific``
|
|
* ``defensive code``
|
|
* ``assert_never(),``
|
|
|
|
And ``<os>-only`` with ``<os>`` different from the local OS, so if you're
|
|
running a test on Linux, ``windows-only`` and ``darwin-only`` will be discared.
|
|
|
|
The opposite ``<os>: no cover`` is also supported.
|
|
|
|
Specific test for the windows platform are also detected:
|
|
|
|
* ``if sys.platform == win32``
|
|
* ``if sys.platform != win32``
|
|
* ``unix-only``
|
|
|
|
You can also skip complete files by creating an ``omit file`` in
|
|
``tests/coverage/omit-file-<os>``. The file should contain a filename per line.
|
|
|
|
Finally, the option ``--e3-cov-rewrite <origin> <dest>`` changes the paths
|
|
reported by coverage. If you run ``--e3-cov-rewrite
|
|
.tox/py311/cov-xdist/lib-site-packages src`` instead of seeing reports of files in
|
|
``.tox/py311-cov-xdist/lib/site-packages/e3/`` the report will show files
|
|
in the repository ``src/e3/``.
|
|
|
|
``require_tool`` fixture
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
``e3.pytest`` provides a function ``require_tool`` that generates a fixture
|
|
allowing to skip tests if a tool is missing. For instance, to create a fixture
|
|
that will skip tests if ``git`` is not installed run:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from e3.pytest import require_tool
|
|
|
|
git = require_tool("git")
|
|
|
|
# Use it in a test that will run only if git is installed
|
|
def test_git_fixture(git):
|
|
...
