Attention!

As of version 1.0.0 the support for python 2.7 and 3.4 was dropped. If you need to support those versions you should pin the version to 0.6.0, i.e. add the following lines to your “requirements_dev.txt”:

# pytest_localftpserver==0.6.0
https://github.com/oz123/pytest-localftpserver/archive/v0.6.0.zip

Usage Quickstart:

This Plugin provides the fixtures ftpserver and ftpserver_TLS, which are threaded instances of a FTP server, with which you can upload files and test FTP functionality. It can be configured using the following environment variables:

See the tests directory or the documentation for examples.

You can either set environment variables on a system level or use tools such as pytest-env or tox, to change the default settings of this plugin. Sample config for pytest-cov:

$ cat pytest.ini
[pytest]
env =
    FTP_USER=benz
    FTP_PASS=erni1
    FTP_HOME = /home/ftp_test
    FTP_PORT=31175
    FTP_FIXTURE_SCOPE=function
    # only affects ftpserver_TLS
    FTP_PORT_TLS = 31176
    FTP_HOME_TLS = /home/ftp_test_TLS
    FTP_CERTFILE = ./tests/test_keycert.pem

Sample config for Tox:

$ cat tox.ini
[tox]
envlist = py{35,36,37}

[testenv]
setenv =
    FTP_USER=benz
    FTP_PASS=erni1
    FTP_HOME = {envtmpdir}
    FTP_PORT=31175
    FTP_FIXTURE_SCOPE=function
    # only affects ftpserver_TLS
    FTP_PORT_TLS = 31176
    FTP_HOME_TLS = /home/ftp_test_TLS
    FTP_CERTFILE = {toxinidir}/tests/test_keycert.pem
commands =
    py.test tests
