turboplex 0.2.2

High Performance Test Engine - Rust + Python

TurboPlex (tpx) — The Test Orchestration Engine for the AI Era

English | Español

Why TurboPlex?

4x faster than Pytest for test execution. The orchestration engine built for the AI era.

Value Proposition

Feature	Description
⚡ 4x Speed	Parallel execution with smart caching (12s → 3s)
🦀 Rust Core	Static analysis and memory management with minimal overhead
🤖 M2M Protocol	Generates .tplex_report.json with AI-actionable errors
👀 Watch Mode	Auto-reload when you save .py files

Installation

# Clone the repository
cd turboplex

# Install in development mode
pip install -e .

# Verify the installation
tpx --help

Quick Start

Basic Execution

# Single test
tpx --path tests/test_simple.py

# Multiple directories
tpx --path tests/ --path tests/integration/

# Auto-discover tests
tpx

Watch Mode (TDD Development)

# Run and watch changes in real time
tpx --watch --path tests/

Integration with AI Agents

# INSTRUCTION FOR YOUR AI AGENT:
# If you detect a .tplex_report.json file in the project,
# read it immediately and propose an automatic fix.

# The file contains:
# - Exact error
# - Failure line
# - Code context (5 lines before and after)

Per-Test Comparison

Metric	pytest	tpx
Time per test	~6s	~1.5s
Caching	No	Yes (SHA-256)
M2M Report	No	Yes (.tplex_report.json)

Configuration

turbo_config.toml File

[execution]
max_workers = 8
default_timeout_ms = 30000
cache_enabled = true

[python]
enabled = true
interpreter = "python"
module = "turboplex_py"
test_paths = ["tests"]
project_path = "."

Cache

The cache is stored in .turboplex_cache/ and is automatically invalidated when test files change (SHA-256 hash).

Files Excluded from the Repository (.gitignore)

This project ignores generated files and local configuration to keep the repository lightweight, reproducible, and free of sensitive data.

• Build artifacts and caches (e.g., target/, **/target/, .cache/)
• Temporary files and logs (*.tmp, *.log, *.swp)
• Local IDE/OS configuration (e.g., .vscode/, .idea/, Thumbs.db, .DS_Store)
• Python local environments and metadata (e.g., .venv/, __pycache__/, *.egg-info/)
• Environment files with secrets or local configuration (.env, .env.*)
• Web tooling dependencies and outputs if applicable (node_modules/, dist/, build/)
• TurboPlex-generated caches and reports (.turboplex_cache/, .tplex_report.json)
