Environment Variables

export PROOFY_MODE=live
export PROOFY_API_BASE=https://api.proofy.dev
export PROOFY_TOKEN=your-token-here
export PROOFY_PROJECT_ID=123

pytest.ini Configuration

[pytest]
proofy_mode = lazy
proofy_api_base = https://api.proofy.dev
proofy_token = your-token-here
proofy_project_id = 123
proofy_batch_size = 20
proofy_output_dir = test-artifacts
proofy_run_attributes = environment=staging,version=1.2.3

Reporting Modes

Live Mode (Default)

Real-time test reporting with immediate server updates:

pytest --proofy-mode live

• Creates test result when test starts (IN_PROGRESS status)
• Updates result when test finishes with final outcome
• Uploads attachments immediately
• Best for interactive development and debugging

Lazy Mode

Sends complete results after test execution:

pytest --proofy-mode lazy

• Collects results during execution
• Sends all results in batches at session end
• Best for CI/CD environments

Batch Mode

Groups results and sends in configurable batches:

pytest --proofy-mode batch --proofy-batch-size 50

• Collects results during execution
• Sends results in batches
• Optimized for large test suites
• Configurable batch size

Run Attributes

Run attributes allow you to add metadata to your test runs, such as environment information, version numbers, and other custom data. Proofy automatically collects system information (Python version, OS, framework version) and allows you to add custom attributes.

Automatic System Attributes

The following attributes are automatically collected for every run:

• __proofy_python_version - Python version (e.g., "3.11.0")
• __proofy_platform - Platform details (e.g., "macOS-14.0-arm64")
• __proofy_framework - Test framework (e.g., "pytest")
• __proofy_framework_version - Framework version (e.g., "7.4.0")

Adding Custom Run Attributes

Via Command Line

pytest --proofy-run-attributes environment=production,version=1.2.3,branch=main

Via Environment Variable

export PROOFY_RUN_ATTRIBUTES="environment=staging,version=2.0.0"
pytest

Via pytest.ini

[pytest]
proofy_run_attributes = environment=development,team=backend

Via conftest.py

# conftest.py
import proofy

def pytest_sessionstart(session):
    """Set run attributes at session start."""
    proofy.add_run_attributes(
        environment="staging",
        version="1.2.3",
        build_number="456",
        branch="feature/new-api"
    )

Via Runtime API in Tests

import proofy

def test_example():
    # You can also set run attributes from within tests
    # (though this is less common - usually set at session start)
    proofy.set_run_attribute("custom_key", "custom_value")
    proofy.add_run_attributes(
        environment="production",
        region="us-east-1"
    )

    # Get all run attributes
    attrs = proofy.get_run_attributes()
    assert "environment" in attrs

Using Decorators and Runtime API

Decorators

from proofy import name, description, severity, tags, attributes

@name("User Login Test")
@description("Validates user authentication with valid credentials")
@severity("critical")
@tags("auth", "smoke")
@attributes(component="auth", browser="chrome")
def test_user_login():
    # Test implementation
    assert login("user", "pass") == True

Runtime API

from proofy import (
    set_name, set_description, set_severity,
    add_tag, add_attributes, add_attachment, ArtifactType
)


def test_dynamic_metadata():
    set_name("Dynamic Test Name")
    set_description("This description is set at runtime")
    set_severity("high")

    # Test logic here
    result = perform_test()

    if result.screenshot:
        add_attachment(
            result.screenshot,
            name="test_screenshot",
            mime_type="image/png",
            artifact_type=ArtifactType.SCREENSHOT
        )

    add_attributes(
        execution_time=result.duration,
        environment="staging"
    )

Attachments

Add files to test results for better debugging:

from proofy import add_attachment, ArtifactType


def test_with_attachments():
    # Your test code
    take_screenshot("failure.png")
    save_logs("test.log")

    # Add attachments
    add_attachment("failure.png", name="Failure Screenshot", artifact_type=ArtifactType.SCREENSHOT)
    add_attachment("test.log", name="Test Logs", mime_type="text/plain")

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Authentication Errors

   # Verify token is correct
   curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" https://api.proofy.dev/health
   

2. Large Test Suites

   # Use batch mode with larger batches
   pytest --proofy-mode batch --proofy-batch-size 100
   

Debug Mode

pytest --proofy-mode lazy -v -s

Local Backup

pytest --proofy-always-backup --proofy-output-dir ./test-results

Status mappings:

• pytest passed → PASSED (1)
• pytest failed → FAILED (2)
• pytest error → BROKEN (3)
• pytest skipped → SKIPPED (4)

Development

# In monorepo root
uv venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install -e ../proofy-commons -e .[dev]
uv run -q pytest -n auto
