pytest-custom-outputs 0.1.0

A plugin that allows users to create and use custom outputs instead of the standard Pass and Fail

===================== pytest-custom_outputs

Features

• Useful for if you want more than just the default Pass, Fail, and Skip outcomes.
• Allows for the creation and usage of custom outputs.
• Custom outputs are filled out in a file called "pytest_custom_outputs.json".
• Custom outputs are customizable in their name, description, result code, tag, and color.
• Supports the creation of an unknown output. If no result matches a default or custom output, then it will be categorized as an unknown output.
• Unknown outputs are also fully customizable.

Requirements

None

Installation

You can install "pytest-custom_outputs" via pip_ from PyPI_::

$ pip install pytest-custom_outputs

Usage

In the directory where you will be running your pytest, create a file called "pytest_custom_outputs.json". You will use this file to create your own custom outputs.

EXAMPLE FILE: ###STARTS HERE### { "use_unknown_if_no_match": true, "unknown": { "attribute":"_unknown", "status": { "desc":"unknown", "code":"?", "output": { "tag":"UNKNOWN", "color":"purple" } } }, "custom_outputs": { "Pass_with_exception": { "attribute":"_expected_pass", "status": { "desc":"passed_with_exception", "code":"P", "output": { "tag":"XPASSED", "color":"green" } } }, "Fatal_failed": { "attribute":"_fatal_fail", "status": { "desc":"fatal_failed", "code":"!", "output": { "tag":"FAILED", "color":"red" } } }, "Not_available": { "attribute":"_not_available", "status": { "desc":"not_available", "code":"N", "output": { "tag":"NOT_AVAILABLE", "color":"blue" } } }, "Failed_but_proceed": { "attribute":"_fail_but_proceed", "status": { "desc":"failed_but_proceed", "code":"X", "output": { "tag":"FAILED_BUT_PROCEED", "color":"red" } } }, "Unimplemented": { "attribute":"_unimplemented", "status": { "desc":"unimplemented", "code":"U", "output": { "tag":"UNIMPLEMENTED", "color":"yellow" } } }, "Skipped": { "attribute":"_skipped", "status": { "desc":"skipped", "code":"S", "output": { "tag":"SKIPPED", "color":"yellow" } } } } } ###ENDS HERE###

use_unknown_if_no_match -> If True, use the unknown output below if there is no match. Otherwise, use standard skip unknown -> The output to use if a test's result is not in default or custom outputs custom_outputs -> A dictionary with all the custom outputs you write inside of it. You can edit, delete, and add new outputs here.

Each custom output is denoted by a name. The name is also the key for that output For example, in the above example file, "Pass_with_exception" and "Fatal_failed" are the names for their respective output. Names are also how we determine the result of a test case. This is done by using skip followed by the name in the parameter.

For example: import pytest from pytest import skip

    def test_1():
            skip("Pass_with_exception")

In the example above, test_1 will result in "passed_with_exception". Because the name overrides the outcome, it will not result in a skip. We use the keyword skip as a means to obtaining out desired outcome.

If we put a name that is not in our custom output in the skip parameter, then if we set unknown to True in the json, we will use the unknown outcome else we will use the default skip and pass the name as a message (Standard skip behavior)

The rest of the information in the json file can be edited and customized to your liking.
