pytest-tap is a reporting plugin for pytest that outputs Test Anything Protocol (TAP) data. TAP is a line based test protocol for recording test data in a standard way.
Use pytest --tap after installing to get started.
Follow GitHub for more information or to follow this plugin’s development. Additional developer documentation about Python and TAP is on Read the Docs.
