pytest-tf 0.1.0

Test your OpenTofu and Terraform config using a PyTest plugin

pytest-tf

Test your OpenTofu and Terraform config using a PyTest plugin.

Usage

Simply add pytest-tf as a dependency, then run pytest with the following configuration options:

• tf_runner: The path to the program that will build the infrastructure. By default, this is tofu. Options: tofu, terraform.

Check the pytest documentation for more information on how to set ini options. You have multiple options:

You can set it in the command line:

pytest --override-ini tf_runner=terraform

Or you can set it in pyproject.toml:

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
tf_runner = "terraform"

Or you can set it in pytest.ini:

[pytest]
tf_runner = terraform

Or you can set it in tox.ini:

[testenv]
setenv =
    tf_runner = terraform

Note: The --capture=no option is recommended to see the output of the Terraform commands.

Features

• Fixture: The tf fixture handles the Terraform initialization, plan, apply and destroy steps. The init, plan and apply are run before the test, and the destroy is run after the test. The fixture is a types.SimpleNamespace with the following attributes:

  • state: The Terraform state file as a dict.

  Example:

def test_tf(tf):
    assert tf.state['resources']['aws_instance.example']['type'] == 'aws_instance'

• Markers: The tf_path marker allows you to specify the path to the Terraform configuration folder. It is recommended you have a terraform folder in your tests folder, and you create a separate folder for each test under it. The marker is a string with the path to the folder.

  Example:

import pytest

@pytest.mark.tf_path('tests/terraform/example')
def test_tf(tf):
    ...
