py.test: simple powerful testing with Python

Project description

Changelog: http://pytest.org/latest/changelog.html

The py.test testing tool makes it easy to write small tests, yet scales to support complex functional testing. It provides

  • auto-discovery of test modules and functions,

  • detailed info on failing assert statements (no need to remember self.assert* names)

  • modular fixtures for managing small or parametrized long-lived test resources.

  • multi-paradigm support: you can use py.test to run test suites based on unittest (or trial), nose

  • single-source compatibility to Python2.4 all the way up to Python3.3, PyPy-1.9 and Jython-2.5.1.

  • many external plugins.

A simple example for a test:

# content of test_module.py
def test_function():
    i = 4
    assert i == 3

which can be run with py.test test_module.py. See getting-started for more examples.
