Terraform and Terragrunt fixtures for pytest

Project description

pytest-terra-fixt

With the use of this plugin, users can run Terragrunt and Terraform commands within parametrizable Pytest fixtures. Under the hood, the fixtures within this plugin use the awesome tftest Python package. In addition, given the lengthy time it takes to set up Terraform configurations, the fixtures use the PyTest built-in config.cache fixture to cache Terraform results that can be accessed across PyTest sessions.

Fixtures

All fixtures below can be parametrized via (@pytest.mark.parametrize())

terra:

  • Scope: Session
  • Parameters [Required]:
    • binary: Path to binary (must end with terraform or `terragrunt)
    • tfdir: Absolute or relative path to basedir
    • basedir: Base directory for tfdir (defaults to cwd)
    • env: Environment variables to pass to the command
    • skip_teardown: Skips running fixture's teardown logic
  • Yield: Either the tftest.TerragruntTest or tftest.TerraformTest class depending on the binary parameter
  • Teardown: Runs terraform destroy -auto-approve on the tfdir directory if skip_teardown is set to False

terra_setup

  • Scope: Function
  • Parameters [Optional]: A: Dictionary of keyword arguments to passed to the tftest.TerraformTest.setup() method B: Dictionary of terra directories and their respective keyword arguments to pass to the method mentioned above
  • Returns: The terra fixture's associated setup output

terra_plan

  • Scope: Function
  • Parameters [Optional]: A: Dictionary of keyword arguments to passed to the tftest.TerraformTest.plan() method B: Dictionary of terra directories and their respective keyword arguments to pass to the method mentioned above
  • Returns: The terra fixture's associated plan output

terra_apply

  • Scope: Function
  • Parameters [Optional]: A: Dictionary of keyword arguments to passed to the tftest.TerraformTest.apply() method B: Dictionary of terra directories and their respective keyword arguments to pass to the method mentioned above
  • Returns: The terra fixture's associated apply output

terra_output

  • Scope: Function
  • Parameters [Optional]: A: Dictionary of keyword arguments to passed to the tftest.TerraformTest.output() method B: Dictionary of terra directories and their respective keyword arguments to pass to the method mentioned above
  • Returns: The terra fixture's associated output

CLI Arguments

--skip-teardown: Skips running terraform destroy -auto-approve on teardown and preserves the Terraform backend tfstate for future testing. This flag is useful for checking out the Terraform resources within the cloud provider console or for running experimental tests without having to wait for the resources to spin up after every Pytest invocation.

NOTE: To continually preserve the Terraform tfstate, the `--skip-teardown` flag or the `"skip_teardown": True` attribute within the `terra` fixture parameters needs to be always present. If not, the `terra` fixture's teardown may destroy the Terraform resources and remove the tfstate files.

Examples

conftest.py

import pytest

def pytest_generate_tests(metafunc):
    if "terra" in metafunc.fixturenames:
        metafunc.parametrize(
            "terra",
            [
                pytest.param(
                    {
                        "binary": "terraform",
                        "skip_teardown": True,
                        "env": {
                           "TF_VAR_foo": "bar"
                        },
                        "tfdir": "fixtures",
                    },
                )
            ],
            indirect=True,
            scope="session",
        )

test_tf.py

import pytest

@pytest.mark.usefixtures("terra_setup", "terra_apply")
class TestModule:

   @pytest.mark.parametrize("terra_plan", [{"extra_files": ["plan.tfvars"]}])
   def test_plan(self, terra, terra_plan):
      assert terra_plan["bar"] == "zoo"

   def test_out(self, terra, terra_output):
      assert terra_output["doo"] == "foo"
