pytest: helps you write better programs
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: pytest
|
|
|
|
The ``pytest`` framework makes it easy to write small, readable tests, and can
|
|
scale to support complex functional testing for applications and libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pytest`` requires: Python 3.7+ or PyPy3.
|
|
|
|
**PyPI package name**: :pypi:`pytest`
|
|
|
|
|
|
A quick example
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
# content of test_sample.py
|
|
def inc(x):
|
|
return x + 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
def test_answer():
|
|
assert inc(3) == 5
|
|
|
|
|
|
To execute it:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: pytest
|
|
|
|
$ pytest
|
|
=========================== test session starts ============================
|
|
platform linux -- Python 3.x.y, pytest-7.x.y, pluggy-1.x.y

|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
================================= FAILURES =================================
|

|
|
|
def test_answer():
|
|
> assert inc(3) == 5
|
|
E assert 4 == 5
|
|
E + where 4 = inc(3)
|
|
|
|
test_sample.py:6: AssertionError
|
|
========================= short test summary info ==========================
|
|
FAILED test_sample.py::test_answer - assert 4 == 5
|
|
============================ 1 failed in 0.12s =============================
|
|
|
|
Due to ``pytest``'s detailed assertion introspection, only plain ``assert`` statements are used.
|
|
See :ref:`Get started <getstarted>` for a basic introduction to using pytest.
