Project description
pytest-unittest-filter
A pytest plugin for filtering unittest-based test classes
Description
pytest
has unittest
-based tests support out of the box. It eases incremental transition from legacy test suite to pytest
for existing projects, but it has one drawback: there is no way to exclude some test cases (unittest.TestCase
subclasses) from collection. pytest
has python_classes
config option, but, as noted in documentation, this option doesn't affect unittest.TestCase
subclasses:
Note that unittest.TestCase derived classes are always collected regardless of this option, as unittest‘s own collection framework is used to collect those tests.
It's probably OK for projects that uses builtin unittest
test runner (python -m unittest
) because the latter has no any include/exclude option either, but it can be inconvenient if a project test suite is used with nose
test runner and relies on hard-coded leading underscore filter.
This plugin provides a new config option python_unittest_classes
that works like the python_classes
option mentioned above but for unittest.TestCase
subclasses:
One or more name prefixes or glob-style patterns determining which classes are considered for test collection. Search for multiple glob patterns by adding a space between patterns.
A default value is none (no value), i.e. all unittest.TestCase
subclasses are collected by default.
Examples
- to exclude classes those names start with underscore:
[pytest]
python_unittest_classes = [!_]*
- to include only classes those names start with
Test
orCheck
:
[pytest]
python_unittest_classes = Test* Check*
or alternatively:
[pytest]
python_unittest_classes = Test Check
- to include only classes those names end with
TestCase
:
[pytest]
python_unittest_classes = *TestCase
