pytest-factoryboy-state 1.0.0

Simple factoryboy random state management

pytest plugin to manage random state in factory_boy.

—

factory_boy uses randomness in order to generate its fuzzed values which makes it hard to reproduce tests which fail due to a fuzzed value. This plugin shows the random state used by factory_boy (and faker) when there are test failurs. And allows to run the tests with a specific random state.

Features

• Show random state on test failures using cli option --show-state or by setting an environment variable.
• Set random state through environment variable or with cli option --set-state

Requirements

• Python > 3.7
• pytest
• factory_boy

Installation

You can install “pytest-factoryboy-state” via pip from PyPI:

$ pip install pytest-factoryboy-state

Usage

Show the random state of factoryboy on test failure with:

$ pytest --show-state

Or by defining the environment variable SHOW_FACTORYBOY_STATE to True.

Rerun the tests with a given state:

$ pytest --set-state=<factoryboy_state>

You can also set the environment variable FACTORYBOY_STATE to the state and run pytest as usual.
