PyTest Helpers Namespace
Project description
This plugin does not provide any helpers to pytest, it does, however, provide a helpers namespace in pytest which enables you to register helper functions in your conftest.py to be used within your tests without having to import them.
Features
Provides a helpers pytest namespace which can be used to register helper functions without requiring you to import them on your actual tests to use them.
Requirements
Installation
You can install “pytest-helpers-namespace” via pip from PyPI:
$ pip install pytest-helpers-namespace
Usage
Consider the following conftest.py file:
pytest_plugins = ['helpers_namespace']
import pytest
@pytest.helpers.register
def foo(bar):
'''
this dumb helper function will just return what you pass to it
'''
return bar
And now consider the following test case:
def test_helper_namespace():
assert pytest.helpers.foo(True) is True
Pretty simple right?!
You can even nest namespaces. Consider the following conftest.py file:
pytest_plugins = ['helpers_namespace']
import pytest
@pytest.helpers.can.haz.register
def foo(bar):
'''
this dumb helper function will just return what you pass to it
'''
return bar
And now consider the following test case:
def test_helper_namespace():
assert pytest.helpers.can.haz.foo(True) is True
