4 min readTo use fudge.patch with pytest, you first need to install the fudge library through pip. Once installed, you can import fudge in your test file and use the @fudge.patch decorator to mock objects and functions within your test functions. This allows you to simulate behavior and control the output of dependencies in your tests.pytest will automatically detect and run tests with fudge patches applied, enabling you to test your code in isolation without relying on external dependencies.
-
5 min readTo ignore a warning inside a test using pytest, you can use the pytest.mark.filterwarnings decorator in your test function. This decorator allows you to specify which warnings you want to ignore during the execution of the test. You can pass in the specific warning message or warning category that you want to ignore as an argument to the decorator. This will prevent the warning from being displayed in the test output and allows the test to run without interruption.
-
4 min readIn order to test a class hierarchy in pytest, you can create test classes for each level of the hierarchy. These test classes should inherit from the corresponding classes in your hierarchy. By doing this, you can test the methods and properties specific to each class, as well as the inheritance relationship between the classes.You can use pytest fixtures to create instances of the classes and set up any necessary data for your tests.
-
5 min readTo print a message after capturing an exception in pytest, you can use the pytest.raises context manager along with the try-except block within your test function. First, wrap the code that you expect to raise an exception inside the with pytest.raises(ExceptionType) as exc_info: block. Then, you can access the exception information using exc_info and print a custom message if the exception is caught.
-
4 min readTo run a pytest method multiple times, you can use the @pytest.mark.parametrize decorator in combination with the @pytest.mark.repeat decorator.First, use the @pytest.mark.parametrize decorator to provide multiple sets of input arguments to the test method. Each set of input arguments will result in the test method being executed once.Next, use the @pytest.mark.repeat decorator to specify the number of times you want the test method to be repeated for each set of input arguments.
-
4 min readTo create an HTML report for pytest, you can use the pytest-html plugin. First, you need to install the plugin by running the command pip install pytest-html. Once the plugin is installed, you can generate an HTML report by running pytest with the --html=path/to/report.html flag. This will create an HTML report with detailed information about the test runs including test results, duration, and any failures or errors encountered.
-
4 min readTo mock a library class for pytest, you can use the pytest-mock library which provides a simple way to replace the normal behavior of classes or functions with custom behavior in your tests. By using the mocker fixture provided by pytest-mock, you can easily mock classes imported from libraries.To mock a library class in your test function, you can use the mocker.patch decorator provided by pytest-mock. This decorator allows you to replace the actual class with a mock object.
-
4 min readTo test a class method using pytest, you can do the following:Import the class that contains the method you want to test.Create a test function with a name that starts with "test_".Instantiate the class and call the method you want to test.Use assert statements to check if the method behaves as expected.
-
3 min readTo run a test marked skip in pytest, you can use the -k option followed by the marker name. For example, if you have a test marked as @pytest.mark.skip, you can run it by running the command pytest -k skip. This will run only the tests marked as skip and skip the rest of the tests. This can be useful when you want to focus on running specific tests or when you have tests that are not ready to be run but you want to keep them in the codebase.
-
6 min readIn pytest, you can handle sys.argv by using the built-in pytestconfig fixture. This fixture provides access to the command line arguments passed to pytest. You can access these arguments using the pytestconfig.getoption() method. For example, you can retrieve the value of a specific command line argument with pytestconfig.getoption('myargument').
-
4 min readIn pytest, you can call a fixture from another fixture by simply passing the name of the other fixture as an argument in the definition of the fixture you want to call. This allows you to reuse fixtures and create a hierarchy of fixtures to organize your test setup. By calling a fixture from another fixture, you can ensure that setup code is shared between multiple tests and keep your test code clean and maintainable.
