pytest-custom-report

A plugin for defining your own characters to be used when displaying test outcomes in pytest (passed, failed, skipped etc).

For example, if you wanted to see a PILE OF POO (U+1F4A9) glyph displayed in the terminal report for each failing test:

pytest --report-failed=💩

To persist your custom characters, add a section like this in the configuration file (i.e. in pytest.ini, tox.ini, setup.cfg or whatever):

[pytest]
report_failed = 💩
report_failed_verbose = OH CRAP

Installation and Usage

pip install pytest-custom-report

This will add new command-line arguments and configuration file options to pytest (detailed in the following section). Command line arguments take precedence over configuration file settings. The plugin is always enabled, but unless you’ve configured your own symbols the pytest defaults are used.

To execute tests with the plugin disabled temporarily, use this:

pytest -p no:pytest-custom-report

If you’re trying to use emojis but you can’t see the glyphs properly in your terminal, you may be missing unicode fonts with the upper plane - you could install for example GNU Unifont.

Configuration

The table below shows the available options as well as pytest’s default style for each outcome.

test outcome	command-line argument name	.ini file config key	default report symbol
passed	--report-passed	report_passed	.
xpassed	--report-xpassed	report_xpassed	X
failed	--report-failed	report_failed	F
xfailed	--report-xfailed	report_xfailed	x
skipped	--report-skipped	report_skipped	s
error	--report-error	report_error	E

When tests are executed with -v or --verbose flag enabled, you’ll see longer strings displayed and one-line per test outcome. These can be specified too.

test outcome	command-line argument name	.ini file config key	default report string
passed	--report-passed-verbose	report_passed_verbose	PASSED
xpassed	--report-xpassed-verbose	report_xpassed_verbose	XPASS
failed	--report-failed-verbose	report_failed_verbose	FAILED
xfailed	--report-xfailed-verbose	report_xfailed_verbose	XFAIL
skipped	--report-skipped-verbose	report_skipped_verbose	SKIPPED
error	--report-error-verbose	report_error_verbose	ERROR

Example config file

Here is some example pytest.ini content that you can copy-paste and modify to your liking:

[pytest]

report_passed = ✔
report_xpassed = 🦄
report_failed = ✗
report_xfailed = 👎
report_skipped = ?
report_error = 🔥

report_passed_verbose = OH YEAH
report_xpassed_verbose = WHAT IN TARNATION?
report_failed_verbose = OH CRAP
report_xfailed_verbose = YEAH WHATEVER
report_skipped_verbose = DON'T CARE
report_error_verbose = YOU MEDDLING KIDS!
