A set of py.test fixtures to test Flask applications.
Project description
A set of py.test fixtures to test Flask extensions and applications.
Features
Plugin provides some fixtures to simplify app testing:
client - an instance of app.test_client,
client_class - client fixture for class-based tests,
config - you application config,
accept_json, accept_jsonp, accept_any - accept headers suitable to use as parameters in client.
To pass options to your application use the pytest.mark.app marker:
@pytest.mark.app(debug=False)
def test_app(app):
assert not app.debug, 'Ensure the app not in debug mode'During tests execution the application has pushed context, e.g. url_for, session and other context bound objects are available without context managers:
def test_app(client):
assert client.get(url_for('myview')).status_code == 200Response object has a json property to test a view that returns a JSON response:
@api.route('/ping')
def ping():
return jsonify(ping='pong')
def test_api_ping(client):
res = client.get(url_for('api.ping'))
assert res.json == {'ping': 'pong'}Quick Start
To start using a plugin define you application fixture in conftest.py:
from myapp import create_app
@pytest.fixture
def app():
app = create_app()
return appAnd run your test suite:
$ pip install pytest-flask
$ py.testContributing
