Quickstart

To install:

pip install mete0r.testfixture

Let’s assume your project has following structure:

yourproject/
    setup.py
    yourpackage/
        __init__.py
        tests/
            __init__.py
            test_foo.py
            fixtures/
                foo.py
                bar.py

Define a fixture in yourpackage/tests/fixtures/foo.py:

from mete0r_testfixture.testfixture import testfixture

@testfixture('Foo')
def foo(fixtures):
    return {
        'foo': None,
    }

Define another fixture in yourpackage/tests/fixtures/bar.py:

@testfixture('Bar', 'foo')
def bar(fixtures):
    return {
        'bar': fixtures.get('Foo')
    }

Now you can use them in your tests:

# yourpackage/tests/test_foo.py
from unittest import TestCase
from mete0r_testfixture.testfixture import TestFixtures
from . import fixtures

class FooTest(TestCase):

    def test_foo(self):
        testfixtures = TestFixtures('yourpackage.tests.fixtures')
        self.assertEquals({
            'bar': {
                'foo': None,
            },
        }, testfixtures.get('Bar', 'foo')

You can also list test fixtures defined in your packages:

$ mete0r-testfixture-scan yourpackage
Foo          yourpackage.tests.fixtures.foo.foo
Bar, foo     yourpackage.tests.fixtures.bar.bar

Caveat

mete0r.testfixture uses venusian to scan fixtures, so be careful not to scan test fixtures in your main application/package. For example:

config = Configurator(...)  # pyramid configurator
...
config.scan(ignore=[b'yourpackage.tests'])
