pytest-sequence-markers 0.0.2

Pytest plugin for sequencing markers for execution of tests

Pytest Marker Sequence

This plugin helps you sequence your markers in pytest.
We mark our tests with different markers, say like nightly, sanity, stress etc. If we wish to sequence these markers for execution of our tests, we can sequence them in pytest.ini itself as mentioned below.

Installation

• Plugin is available on pypi.org as pip installable.
• Install by pip command as

  pip install pytest-sequence-markers
  

Editing pytest.ini

• pytest.ini is a configuration file for pytest.
• For sequencing the markers, add a section named test_execution_sequence in pytest.ini
• Add a key named marker_sequence and mention the sequence of the markers you want.

[pytest]
markers = sanity: Sanity Tests
    nightly: Nightly Tests
    release: Release Tests
    negative: Negative Tests
[test_execution_sequence]
marker_sequence = sanity, negative, nightly, release

• The sequence of markers you specify comma separated in the ini file, tests will be executed in that sequence only

Example

• Edit the pytest.ini as mentioned above and mention your own sequence with own markers
• Add a test file containing all pytest tests

import pytest


@pytest.mark.sanity
def test_sanity():
    pass

@pytest.mark.release
def test_release():
    pass


@pytest.mark.negative
def test_negative():
    pass

@pytest.mark.nightly
def test_nightly():
    pass

@pytest.mark.nightly
def test_nightly2():
    pass

• Execute the test with pytest command

$ pytest -sv
