An encrypted password store for use within pytest cases

An encrypted password store for use within pytest cases

---

This pytest plugin was generated with Cookiecutter along with @hackebrot’s cookiecutter-pytest-plugin template.

Features

Provide a way to include encrypted data in a test repo so project team members may share test account data (logins, password, keys) while only having to share the decryption password and store filename outside of the repository.

Requirements

SecureStore makes use of PyAesCrypt by Marco Bellaccini: “pyAesCrypt is a Python 3 file-encryption module and script that uses AES256-CBC to encrypt/decrypt files and binary streams.”

Files must be formatted as YAML data (YAML Reference) and will be loaded into a Python dictionary.

Installation

You can install “pytest-securestore” via pip from PyPI:

$ pip install pytest-securestore

Usage

Generic YAML layout:

---
# a comment
a_general_user:
    username: the_username
    password: a_password
    usertype: some_defined_type
...

Encrypt the YAML file (file encryption):

import os
import pyAesCrypt

buffer_size = 64 * 1024  # 64K
filename = os.getenv('SECURE_STORE_FILE')
password = os.getenv('SECURE_STORE_PASSWORD')
pyAesCrypt.encryptFile("/path/to/yaml/file", filename, password, buffer_size)

Include the encrypted file in the repository.

Within a test:

def test_get_store_values(store):
    # one way to get the value
    user = store.get('a_general_user')
    username = user['username']
    # or another
    username = store.get('a_general_user').get('username')
    # or even another
    password = store.get('a_general_user')['password']
    # or
    user_type = store['a_general_user']['usertype']
    # ...
    some_site.log_in(username, password, user_type)

And to kick it off:

CLI with environment variables:

$ pytest --secure-store-filename=$SECURE_STORE_FILE --secure-store-password=$SECURE_STORE_PASSWORD
