pytest-sqlalchemy-mock 0.1.4

pytest sqlalchemy plugin for mock

pytest-sqlalchemy-mock 👋

This plugin provides pytest fixtures to create an in-memory DB instance on tests and dump your raw test data.

Installation

pip install pytest-sqlalchemy-mock

Usage

Let's assume you have a SQLAlchemy declarative base and some models with it.

models.py

from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, String
from sqlalchemy.orm import declarative_base

Base = declarative_base()


class User(Base):
    __tablename__ = "user"

    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = Column(String)

Firstly SQLAlchemy base class which is used for declare models should be passed with sqlalchemy_declarative_base fixture in conftest.py

conftest.py

@pytest.fixture(scope="function")
def sqlalchemy_declarative_base():
    return Base

Then in test functions you can use mocked_session fixture to make query in mocked DB.

test_user_table.py

def test_mocked_session_user_table(mocked_session):
    user_data = mocked_session.execute("SELECT * from user;").all()
    assert user_data == []

Also, you can dump your mock data to DB before start testing via sqlalchemy_mock_config fixture like following.

conftest.py

@pytest.fixture(scope="function")
def sqlalchemy_mock_config():
    return [("user", [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "Kevin"
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            "name": "Dwight"
        }
    ])]

test_user_table.py

def test_mocked_session_user_class(mocked_session):
    user = mocked_session.query(User).filter_by(id=2).first()
    assert user.name == "Dwight"
