🧪 autotestify

autotestify is a lightweight Python CLI tool that automatically generates pytest test functions for any function decorated with @autotest.

Save time. Avoid boilerplate. Focus on your logic — we'll write the tests.


🚀 Features

  • 🔍 Detects only functions decorated with @autotest
  • 🧠 Adds sensible dummy values for parameters
  • 🛠 Generates test stubs using pytest
  • ⚡ Instantly creates a test_<filename>.py file
  • 🐍 Pure Python, no dependencies

📦 Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install autotestify

⚙️ Usage

autotestify your_file.py

This will generate a new file named test_your_file.py in the same directory.

✅ Example

Original file: calculator.py

from autotestify import autotest


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

@autotest
def greet(name):
    return f"Hello, {name}"

Generated: test_calculator.py

import pytest
from calculator import *

def test_greet():
    result = greet("example")
    assert result is not None

📌 @autotest Decorator

This is a no-op decorator used for marking which functions should be tested automatically.

from autotestify import autotest

@autotest
def my_function(...):
    ...

Functions without @autotest will be ignored.

🧩 How It Works

Parses your Python file using the ast module

Identifies functions with @autotest

Analyzes their arguments and generates dummy values

Writes pytest test functions with assert result is not None

🛠 Requirements

Python 3.7+

pytest (to run the tests, not required to generate)
