A simple cli-based recorder for Python
Project description
simple_test_generator
Automated, comprehensive and clean pytest test cases.
Description
Helps you reach 100% test coverage with real-world test cases. Tests that are generated "just work", i.e they are clean, unaware of implementation details, and doesn't require active maintenance.
It works well if your functions are deterministic (e.g pure).
If not, then you should probably make them so!
It's DDT for pytest (development-driven testing :nerd_face:)
why?
Too tedious/hard to generate custom data for your application?
- save time by having tests generated for you :tada:
- dramatically increase test code coverage with little effort
- write more maintainable tests by separating code and data
- helps you organise your test code consistently in new projects, or:
- replace your existing disorganised test code :+1:
Using in normal runs
Using while running tests
then, confirm that your test cases expected value are correct.
finally, install it only as a test dependency.

TODO
Docs
Running over and over write test cases in new files to avoid overwriting your previous test cases. The filenames are appended with -00, -01, ... for up to 10 files.
If your function arguments are not serialisable, then test cases won't be generated. You will see an error in the logs for that function.
Notes
This project uses pickling to load the test data. If you're the one generated test data, then it should be fine loading it during tests. Otherwise, don't load untrusted test data.
TODO
- Minor issue: functions in your main module may be loaded twice, creating identical test cases twice for that function.

These projects resemble this one but mine requires much less effort on your part and generates even less boilerplate :blush:
