Test code blocks in your READMEs
Project description
Test code blocks in your READMEs.
This is pytest-codeblocks, a pytest plugin for testing code blocks from README files. It supports Python and shell code.
Install with
pip install pytest-codeblocks
and run pytest with
pytest --codeblocks

pytest-codeblocks will only pick up code blocks with python
and sh
/bash
/zsh
syntax highlighting.
Skipping code blocks
Prefix your code block with a pytest-codeblocks:skip
comment to skip
Lorem ipsum
<!--pytest-codeblocks:skip-->
```python
foo + bar # not working
```
dolor sit amet.
Conditionally skipping code blocks works with skipif
, e.g.,
<!--pytest-codeblocks:skipif(sys.version_info <= (3, 7))-->
You can skip code blocks on import errors with
<!--pytest-codeblocks:importorskip(sympy)-->
Skip the entire file by putting
<!--pytest-codeblocks:skipfile-->
in the first line.
Merging code blocks
Broken-up code blocks can be merged into one with the pytest-codeblocks:cont
prefix
Lorem ipsum
```python
a = 1
```
dolor sit amet
<!--pytest-codeblocks:cont-->
```python
# this would otherwise fail since `a` is not defined
a + 1
```
If you'd like to prepend code that you don't want to show, you can just comment it out; pytest-codeblocks will pick it up anyway:
Lorem ipsum
<!--
```python
a = 1
```
-->
dolor sit amet
<!--pytest-codeblocks:cont-->
```python
# this would otherwise fail since `a` is not defined
a + 1
```
Expected output
You can also define the expected output of a code block:
This
```sh
print(1 + 3)
```
gives
<!--pytest-codeblocks:expected-output-->
```
4
```
(Conditionally) Skipping the output verfication works by prepending the first
block with skip
/skipif
(see above).
Expected errors
Some code blocks are expected to give errors. You can verify this with
The following gives an error:
<!--pytest-codeblocks:expect-error-->
```python
1 / 0
```
The keyword expect-exception
is also possible.
