pytest-results
Easily spot regressions in your tests.
A Pytest plugin for snapshot testing: a test returns a value, the plugin stores it in a snapshot file, and compares the next runs with it.
Installation
⚠️ Requires Python 3.12 or higher
pip install pytest-results
Quick start
Return the value to check from your test:
def test_function():
return {"hello": "world"}
The first run fails, since there is no snapshot to compare with yet. Accept the new results to store them as snapshots:
pytest --accept-diff
The snapshots are stored as JSON files in the __pytest_results__ folder, at the root
of your project. Commit this folder: from now on, the test fails whenever its result
changes.
When a test fails, open the differences in your IDE with the --ide option:
pytest --ide vscode
The supported IDEs are cursor, pycharm and vscode.
If the changes are expected, update the snapshots with pytest --accept-diff.
