Pytest plugin that provides a bq_client_mock fixture. This fixture mocks the google.cloud.bigquery.Client class and provides a way to mock an API response using pytest.mark, for example:

Install and use

Install the plugin with pip install pytest-bigquery-mock

Then, in your conftest.py file add pytest-bigquery-mock to your list of plugins

plugins = ["pytest-bigquery-mock"]
