cache -- .../_pytest/cacheprovider.py:510
|
|
Return a cache object that can persist state between testing sessions.
|
|
|
|
cache.get(key, default)
|
|
cache.set(key, value)
|
|
|
|
Keys must be ``/`` separated strings, where the first part is usually the
|
|
name of your plugin or application to avoid clashes with other cache users.
|
|
|
|
Values can be any object handled by the json stdlib module.
|
|
|
|
capsys -- .../_pytest/capture.py:905
|
|
Enable text capturing of writes to ``sys.stdout`` and ``sys.stderr``.
|
|
|
|
The captured output is made available via ``capsys.readouterr()`` method
|
|
calls, which return a ``(out, err)`` namedtuple.
|
|
``out`` and ``err`` will be ``text`` objects.
|
|
|
|
Returns an instance of :class:`CaptureFixture[str] <pytest.CaptureFixture>`.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def test_output(capsys):
|
|
print("hello")
|
|
captured = capsys.readouterr()
|
|
assert captured.out == "hello\n"
|
|
|
|
capsysbinary -- .../_pytest/capture.py:933
|
|
Enable bytes capturing of writes to ``sys.stdout`` and ``sys.stderr``.
|
|
|
|
The captured output is made available via ``capsysbinary.readouterr()``
|
|
method calls, which return a ``(out, err)`` namedtuple.
|
|
``out`` and ``err`` will be ``bytes`` objects.
|
|
|
|
Returns an instance of :class:`CaptureFixture[bytes] <pytest.CaptureFixture>`.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def test_output(capsysbinary):
|
|
print("hello")
|
|
captured = capsysbinary.readouterr()
|
|
assert captured.out == b"hello\n"
|
|
|
|
capfd -- .../_pytest/capture.py:961
|
|
Enable text capturing of writes to file descriptors ``1`` and ``2``.
|
|
|
|
The captured output is made available via ``capfd.readouterr()`` method
|
|
calls, which return a ``(out, err)`` namedtuple.
|
|
``out`` and ``err`` will be ``text`` objects.
|
|
|
|
Returns an instance of :class:`CaptureFixture[str] <pytest.CaptureFixture>`.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def test_system_echo(capfd):
|
|
os.system('echo "hello"')
|
|
captured = capfd.readouterr()
|
|
assert captured.out == "hello\n"
|
|
|
|
capfdbinary -- .../_pytest/capture.py:989
|
|
Enable bytes capturing of writes to file descriptors ``1`` and ``2``.
|
|
|
|
The captured output is made available via ``capfd.readouterr()`` method
|
|
calls, which return a ``(out, err)`` namedtuple.
|
|
``out`` and ``err`` will be ``byte`` objects.
|
|
|
|
Returns an instance of :class:`CaptureFixture[bytes] <pytest.CaptureFixture>`.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def test_system_echo(capfdbinary):
|
|
os.system('echo "hello"')
|
|
captured = capfdbinary.readouterr()
|
|
assert captured.out == b"hello\n"
|
|
|
|
doctest_namespace [session scope] -- .../_pytest/doctest.py:738
|
|
Fixture that returns a :py:class:`dict` that will be injected into the
|
|
namespace of doctests.
|
|
|
|
Usually this fixture is used in conjunction with another ``autouse`` fixture:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
|
|
def add_np(doctest_namespace):
|
|
doctest_namespace["np"] = numpy
|
|
|
|
For more details: :ref:`doctest_namespace`.
|
|
|
|
pytestconfig [session scope] -- .../_pytest/fixtures.py:1356
|
|
Session-scoped fixture that returns the session's :class:`pytest.Config`
|
|
object.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
def test_foo(pytestconfig):
|
|
if pytestconfig.getoption("verbose") > 0:
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
record_property -- .../_pytest/junitxml.py:282
|
|
Add extra properties to the calling test.
|
|
|
|
User properties become part of the test report and are available to the
|
|
configured reporters, like JUnit XML.
|
|
|
|
The fixture is callable with ``name, value``. The value is automatically
|
|
XML-encoded.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
def test_function(record_property):
|
|
record_property("example_key", 1)
|
|
|
|
record_xml_attribute -- .../_pytest/junitxml.py:305
|
|
Add extra xml attributes to the tag for the calling test.
|
|
|
|
The fixture is callable with ``name, value``. The value is
|
|
automatically XML-encoded.
|
|
|
|
record_testsuite_property [session scope] -- .../_pytest/junitxml.py:343
|
|
Record a new ``<property>`` tag as child of the root ``<testsuite>``.
|
|
|
|
This is suitable to writing global information regarding the entire test
|
|
suite, and is compatible with ``xunit2`` JUnit family.
|
|
|
|
This is a ``session``-scoped fixture which is called with ``(name, value)``. Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
def test_foo(record_testsuite_property):
|
|
record_testsuite_property("ARCH", "PPC")
|
|
record_testsuite_property("STORAGE_TYPE", "CEPH")
|
|
|
|
:param name:
|
|
The property name.
|
|
:param value:
|
|
The property value. Will be converted to a string.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
Currently this fixture **does not work** with the
|
|
`pytest-xdist <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist>`__ plugin. See
|
|
:issue:`7767` for details.
|
|
|
|
tmpdir_factory [session scope] -- .../_pytest/legacypath.py:302
|
|
Return a :class:`pytest.TempdirFactory` instance for the test session.
|
|
|
|
tmpdir -- .../_pytest/legacypath.py:309
|
|
Return a temporary directory path object which is unique to each test
|
|
function invocation, created as a sub directory of the base temporary
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
By default, a new base temporary directory is created each test session,
|
|
and old bases are removed after 3 sessions, to aid in debugging. If
|
|
``--basetemp`` is used then it is cleared each session. See :ref:`base
|
|
temporary directory`.
|
|
|
|
The returned object is a `legacy_path`_ object.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
These days, it is preferred to use ``tmp_path``.
|
|
|
|
:ref:`About the tmpdir and tmpdir_factory fixtures<tmpdir and tmpdir_factory>`.
|
|
|
|
.. _legacy_path: https://py.readthedocs.io/en/latest/path.html
|
|
|
|
caplog -- .../_pytest/logging.py:491
|
|
Access and control log capturing.
|
|
|
|
Captured logs are available through the following properties/methods::
|
|
|
|
* caplog.messages -> list of format-interpolated log messages
|
|
* caplog.text -> string containing formatted log output
|
|
* caplog.records -> list of logging.LogRecord instances
|
|
* caplog.record_tuples -> list of (logger_name, level, message) tuples
|
|
* caplog.clear() -> clear captured records and formatted log output string
|
|
|
|
monkeypatch -- .../_pytest/monkeypatch.py:29
|
|
A convenient fixture for monkey-patching.
|
|
|
|
The fixture provides these methods to modify objects, dictionaries, or
|
|
:data:`os.environ`:
|
|
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.setattr(obj, name, value, raising=True) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.setattr>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.delattr(obj, name, raising=True) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.delattr>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.setitem(mapping, name, value) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.setitem>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.delitem(obj, name, raising=True) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.delitem>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.setenv(name, value, prepend=None) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.setenv>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.delenv(name, raising=True) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.delenv>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.syspath_prepend(path) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.syspath_prepend>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.chdir(path) <pytest.MonkeyPatch.chdir>`
|
|
* :meth:`monkeypatch.context() <pytest.MonkeyPatch.context>`
|
|
|
|
All modifications will be undone after the requesting test function or
|
|
fixture has finished. The ``raising`` parameter determines if a :class:`KeyError`
|
|
or :class:`AttributeError` will be raised if the set/deletion operation does not have the
|
|
specified target.
|
|
|
|
To undo modifications done by the fixture in a contained scope,
|
|
use :meth:`context() <pytest.MonkeyPatch.context>`.
|
|
|
|
recwarn -- .../_pytest/recwarn.py:30
|
|
Return a :class:`WarningsRecorder` instance that records all warnings emitted by test functions.
|
|
|
|
See https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/how-to/capture-warnings.html for information
|
|
on warning categories.
|
|
|
|
tmp_path_factory [session scope] -- .../_pytest/tmpdir.py:188
|
|
Return a :class:`pytest.TempPathFactory` instance for the test session.
|
|
|
|
tmp_path -- .../_pytest/tmpdir.py:203
|
|
Return a temporary directory path object which is unique to each test
|
|
function invocation, created as a sub directory of the base temporary
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
By default, a new base temporary directory is created each test session,
|
|
and old bases are removed after 3 sessions, to aid in debugging. If
|
|
``--basetemp`` is used then it is cleared each session. See :ref:`base
|
|
temporary directory`.
|
|
|
|
The returned object is a :class:`pathlib.Path` object.
