pytest-infinity

pytest-infinity is a wrapper for pytest, designed to easily command a test session running infinitely using xdist --dist loadgroup option.

Below is a demonstration for running tests with an "android" and "ios" group:

Infinity was created for complex low-level test suites in mind for hunting down non-deterministic bugs (running high-level or native tests on multiple mobile devices simultaneously).

These are the main principles of infinity:

• Ease-of-use.
• Test history.
• Infinitely-long sessions.

Infinity uses the following pytest plugins for its functionality:

• pytest-xdist - runs tests in parallel.
• pytest-publish - publish live test results to REST and filesystem.
• pytest-xstress - runs tests infinitely over xdist.

Infinity uses the following plugins for its UI:

• textual - create UI apps in terminal.
• rich - rich text for terminals.

PLEASE REPORT BUGS!

Usage

Just run infinity <pytest args> ...

The wrapper adds the following flags implicitly:

$ pytest --color yes -v 
         -n auto --dist loadgroup
         --xstress
         --publish http://localhost:... <impl defined>
         --pubdir <impl defined>
        
         <pytest args> ...

Your pytest args are appended to the end of the cmdline.

Functions

There are a few useful tabs implemented into infinity:

RUN

See a matrix of groups X tests updated live with [pass][fail][skip] text.

OUTPUT

Raw stdout output of pytest.

LOG

Internal log of infinity, with the output directory printed first.

FILES

Navigatable filesystem with test run info.
