Pytest fixures for running tests with Docker containers

PyDocks

PyDocks is a group of pytest fixures for running tests with Docker containers

Demonstration:

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_postgresql_execute_command(postgresql_container):
    # Connect to the PostgreSQL database
    conn = await asyncpg.connect(
        host="127.0.0.1",
        port=5433,
        user="postgres",
        password="postgres",
        database="postgres",
    )

    try:
        # Execute a simple command
        result = await conn.fetchval("SELECT 1")
        assert result == 1, "Failed to execute command on PostgreSQL"
    finally:
        # Close the connection
        await conn.close()

Description

PyDocks is a Python library that provides a set of pytest fixtures for running tests with Docker containers. It simplifies the process of setting up, managing, and tearing down Docker containers during test execution.

Key features include:

• Easy integration with pytest
• Support for PostgreSQL, Hashicorp Vault containers, Redis
• Automatic container cleanup
• Configurable container settings
• Reusable session-scoped containers for improved test performance

PyDocks is designed to make testing with Docker containers more efficient and less error-prone, allowing developers to focus on writing tests rather than managing infrastructure.

Installation

# Install the dependency
pip install pydocks
uv add pydocks
poetry add pydocks

Usage

Remove all old containers

import pytest_asyncio

@pytest_asyncio.fixture(scope="session", loop_scope="session", autouse=True)
async def begin_clean_all_containers(postgresql_clean_all_containers):
    logger.info("Begin - clean all containers")

Use a function container

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_postgresql_execute_command(postgresql_container):
  ...

Use a session container, to keep the container to use it in multiple tests

@pytest.mark.asyncio(loop_scope="session")
async def test_reuse_postgresql_container_1_2(postgresql_container_session):
  ...
  # postgresql_container_session creates a new container

@pytest.mark.asyncio(loop_scope="session")
async def test_reuse_postgresql_container_2_2(postgresql_container_session):
  ...
  # postgresql_container_session uses the same instance of container created in test_reuse_postgresql_container_1_2
