This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
The Python test runner built for precision.
▸ Zero plugins. Full arsenal.
Test Junkie 
Key Features
Not a wrapper around
unittest. Every capability below ships with the library — no plugins to install, no config files to write, no external orchestrators.
- Decorator-based:
@Suiteand@teston plain Python classes — no base class to extend, no config file to maintain - Lifecycle hooks:
@beforeClass,@afterClass,@beforeTest,@afterTest— declared directly on the class - Built-in parallel execution with independent thread limits at the suite tier (
-T) and the test tier (-S) — opt-in per class and per test, no external orchestrator needed - Exception-aware retries:
retry_on=[ConnectionError]re-runs on infrastructure noise;no_retry_on=[AssertionError]ensures real bugs always surface - Multi-layer parametrization: suite params × test params = every combination, each variant tracked and retried independently
Rulesclass for shared lifecycle across suites — define hooks once, attach to many suites; one change propagates everywhere- First-class
owner,component,tags, andpriorityon every test —tj run --tags smokein CI, full suite locally, no test-selection scripts to maintain - Typed result objects via
runner.summary.suitesand live-firingListener(on_failure=...)— build alerts and CI gates without a plugin system - HTML, XML, and JSON reports after every run — no plugins, no config files, no post-processing step
- Full CLI:
tj run,tj audit,tj config— run and inspect suites without writing a runner script
