Super basic usage of pytest

Notes on how to use pytest

I touched pytest, so that note.

What is pytest

Python test framework pytest: helps you write better programs ? pytest documentation

Install pytest

If you install from pip normally, it's OK

Install pytest

pip install pytest

Write a test for pytest

The basic writing method is as follows.

--Write as a Python program --Write the part to be executed as a test with one of the following --Make the function start with test_ --Make the method start with test_ of the class starting with Test --Whether the result is OK or NG is judged by whether the result of the ʻassert conditional expressionis True or False. ――It's notreturn, it's ʻassert

Sample of the side to be tested

Tester (program executed from pytest)

test_program.py

from my_funcs import add, sub


def test_add():
    assert add(1, 2) == 3


def test_sub():
    assert sub(3, 1) == 2


class TestCase:
    def test_true(self):
        assert True

    def test_add_zero(self):
        assert add(1, 0) == 1

Side to be tested

my_funcs.py

def add(a, b):
    return a + b

def sub(a, b):
    return a - b

Run pytest

If you run pytest normally, it will be in the current directory. Automatically execute files whose filenames start with test_ or end with _test.

Run pytest

pytest

When specifying a test program

Only the test specified by pytest tester program name is executed.

Run pytest with a file

pytest test_program.py

How to read the execution result

Example that passed the test

--First there is a header, followed by the result in the format filename .. --Each of these . Corresponds to result = OK in the test function. --The number of passes is displayed at the end and the process ends

Execution result

===================================== 2 passed in 0.02s =====================================

An example of a test

--It's the same that there is a header first, followed by the result in the format filename .. --Tests that do not pass will show F --After that, the part that did not pass to FAILURES is displayed. --The number of OK and NG is displayed at the end and the process ends.

Execution options

---s: Output standard output (default: not) ---v: Output the details of the result (default: not)
