Temporary directories and files
|
||||
================================================
|
||||
|
||||
The ``tmp_path`` fixture
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 3.9
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the ``tmpdir`` fixture which will
|
||||
provide a temporary directory unique to the test invocation,
|
||||
created in the `base temporary directory`_.
|
||||
|
||||
``tmpdir`` is a `pathlib/pathlib2.Path`_ object. Here is an example test usage::
|
||||
|
||||
# content of test_tmp_path.py
|
||||
import os
|
||||
CONTENT = u"content"
|
||||
|
||||
def test_create_file(tmp_path):
|
||||
d = tmp_path / "sub"
|
||||
d.mkdir()
|
||||
p = d / "hello.txt"
|
||||
p.write_text(CONTENT)
|
||||
assert p.read_text() == CONTENT
|
||||
assert len(tmpdir.listdir()) == 1
|
||||
assert 0
|
||||
|
||||
Running this would result in a passed test except for the last
|
||||
``assert 0`` line which we use to look at values::
|
||||
|
||||
$ pytest test_tmp_path.py
|
||||
... #fill fom regendoc
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The ``tmp_path_facotry`` fixture
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 3.9
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The ``tmp_path_facotry`` is a session-scoped fixture which can be used
|
||||
to create arbitrary temporary directories from any other fixture or test.
|
||||
|
||||
its intended to replace ``tmpdir_factory``
