What is this?

This is a pytest plugin, that enables you to test your code that relies on a running MySQL Database. It allows you to specify fixtures for MySQL process and client.

How to use

Plugin contains two fixtures

  • mysql - it’s a client fixture that has functional scope. After each test drops test database from MySQL ensuring repeatability.

  • mysql_proc - session scoped fixture, that starts MySQL instance at it’s first use and stops at the end of the tests.

Simply include one of these fixtures into your tests fixture list.

You can also create additional mysql client and process fixtures if you’d need to:

from pytest_mysql import factories

mysql_my_proc = factories.mysql_proc(
    port=None, logsdir='/tmp')
mysql_my = factories.mysql('mysql_my_proc')

Configuration

You can define your settings in three ways, it’s fixture factory argument, command line option and pytest.ini configuration option. You can pick which you prefer, but remember that these settings are handled in the following order:

  • Fixture factory argument

  • Command line option

  • Configuration option in your pytest.ini file

MySQL option

pytest.ini option

Default

Path to executable

mysqld_exec

–mysql-mysqld

mysql_mysqld

Path to mysql_install_db for legacy installations

install_db

–mysql-install-db

mysql_install_db

/usr/bin/mysql_install_db

Path to Admin executable

admin_executable

–mysql-admin

mysql_admin

/usr/bin/mysqladmin

host

host

–mysql-host

mysql_host

localhost

port

port

–mysql-port

mysql_port

random

MySQL user to work with

user

–mysql-user

mysql_user

root

User’s password

passwd

–mysql-passwd

mysql_passwd

Test database name

–mysql-dbname

mysqldbname

test

Starting parameters

params

–mysql-params

mysql_params

Log directory location

logsdir

–mysql-logsdir

mysql_logsdir

$TMPDIR

Example usage:

  • pass it as an argument in your own fixture

    mysql_proc = factories.mysql_proc(
        port=8888)
  • use --mysql-port command line option when you run your tests

    py.test tests --mysql-port=8888
  • specify your port as mysql_port in your pytest.ini file.

    To do so, put a line like the following under the [pytest] section of your pytest.ini:

    [pytest]
    mysql_port = 8888

Running on Docker/as root

Unfortunately, running MySQL as root (thus by default on docker) is not possible. MySQL (and MariaDB as well) will not allow it.

USER nobody

This line should switch your docker process to run on user nobody. See this comment for example
